Radiohead Kicks Off First U.S. Tour in Four Years
British alternative band Radiohead kicked off their first U.S. tour in four years yesterday and got a warm -- make that hot -- welcome, with nearly all scheduled performance dates sold out.
The band opened the tour at Miami's American Airlines Arena, debuting two new songs, "Identikit" and "Cut a Hole."
Half of their repertoire came from the albums The King of Limbs and In Rainbows, and they performed songs from their 1997 album OK Computer.
Their next gig is scheduled for tomorrow at the St. Pete Times Forum in Tampa.
The 14-city tour includes stops in Atlanta, Houston, Dallas, Kansas City, St. Louis and Seattle.
The dates include three performances at two major music festivals: the Coachella Festival on April 14 and 21 in Indio, California, and the Bonnaroo Music & Arts Festival on June 8 in Manchester, Tennessee, where the tour will end.
The band then heads to Europe and Asia.
