Radiohead Announce First Shows Of 2008

Radiohead have finally confirmed they will play live in 2008, as the band have been booked to play two German festivals in the Summer.

The events are The Southside Festival and the Hurricane Festival, and both take place on June 20th-22nd. It's not yet known which exact dates at both events the band will play.

However, it's not clear how Radiohead plan to play the shows as front man Thom Yorke previously stated he was unhappy about travelling due to the impact on the environment.

In a past interview, their manager Bryce Edge said: "He likes to do shows, but the whole business of schlepping around the world is not top of his list of favourite things to do."

"He really enjoys playing to the fans - it's just the process of how to do that which is the pain in the neck (for Yorke). They're not road dogs. They never have been."
