VIDEO + SMS: Radiohead's Boston show in 140 characters or less!
By Carly Carioli

>>If you haven't already, check out our photo gallery from last night's show. Yes, it was that good.
Sure, we sent a "reviewer" to the Radiohead show last night -- WILL SPITZ went with the traditional pen and reporters' notebook, having won a last-minue inter-office Sumo match for the right to write the Final Word on the World's Most Important Band. The rest of us, being big interweb dorks and even bigger Radiohead geeks, took our cellphones and txt-chatted straight to our Twitter page during the whole show, thereby making us into total assholes. But look, someone's gotta lead the new-media revolution, right? What are you gonna do, read what the Herald wrote? Or skim our fanboyish, Twitterific play-by-play, NOW UPDATED WITH YOUTUBE CLIPS? Exaaaactly. Here's how it went down according to OTD, MEGAN BELL (who was seeing her third Radiohead show in less than a week!), and CAITLIN CURRAN. Read on after the jump!

Video: Gnarls Barkley covers Radiohead; Radiohead covers Portishead
By Carly Carioli

Gnarls Barkley, "Reckoner" (Radiohead cover, Live at Rosskilde)

Find more videos like this on w.a.s.t.e. central
Radiohead, "The Rip" (Portishead cover, from some hotel room)

Two -heads are better than one. Also, we don't like to make too much of covers, but listening to Cee-Lo tackle Mr. Yorke's high notes on "Reckoner," and thinking also of Yorke's own soul turn on "Nude," we're not entirely sure that Radiohead didn't make a better R&B album than Danger Mouse this time around.
