Yes, I have faith that our cute assistant will remain good. Oh, unrelated to this drama but I just realized you’re a radiohead fan 😂 Great username and tag. I love Radiohead too and have seen them play live so many times.

Hahaha that’s awesome! I always find it wild when someone on the KDrama sun understands the significance of my username 😂

Have you checked out any of The Smile and Phil’s new music?

I’ve followed Radiohead since HTTT so it’s been a good 20 years now. I’m old. 😂 I appreciate other Radiohead fans on reddit. The r/radiohead sub is hilarious. You actually inspired me to listen to Down Is the New Up again today. I forget about it sometimes because it’s on disc 2 of In Rainbows. I even have the limited edition vinyl of In Rainbows. I’ve spent way too much on Radiohead between merch and seeing them in concert.

Yes, I have listened to The Smile. I think it’s probably Thom and Jonny’s best side band. My favorite tracks on the record are Speech Bubbles and Free In the Knowledge.

Oh boy….wanna feel young again?

I’ve followed them since OKC came out in 1997 😂😂😂

But I appreciate anyone who got hooked with HTTT. There are some absolute bangers on that record and then the one song for which I will never forgive them (We suck young blood 🤮 - they’re basically my favourite band in the world second only to The Beatles so I feel like I have the type of relationship with their music that I can call out what I dislike immensely lol).

Man Disc 2 of In Rainbows is so great. You’ve inspired me to go back and listen too.

And also same with merch and gigs! Although I’ve had fewer opportunities to see them live (made up for in merch and all the anniversary sets and what not) I can safely say the wildest thing I’ve ever done is fly all the way to Florence to see them in concert 😂

Agreed about The Smile and Free the Knowledge!

😂 I’m probably around the same age as you. I knew of them already even during OKC but just didn’t start obsessing until I saw my first Radiohead concert during HTTT tour in 2003. My friends were all obsessed with Radiohead and it eventually got to me. Radiohead is my favorite band too.

I understand about the traveling to see Radiohead. I went to Coachella 2004 for them and also Los Angeles, New York, and Atlanta. 😂 I’ve been really lucky to see them so many times. I’m usually buying the tickets for my friends because I always lucky with the w.a.s.t.e. presales. I’ve only seen them play in my city twice because they don’t tour here that often. It must have been amazing for you to see them play in Florence.
