Radiohead have announced three UK dates for this October.
They are:
OCTOBER 6 MANCHESTER ARENA
OCTOBER 8 LONDON 02 ARENA
OCTOBER 9 LONDON 02 ARENA\
Yip, and thats only the first batch, there will be more in the UK and Dublin O2 should be along shortly. Think i'll be travelling to the UK for some of these. It's been 6 years since they played indoor gigs. Recent gigs in the U.S. have shown they are playing practically all material from last few albums, the whole of the 90's getting just a casual nod in the setlists.
caribou touring with them as well. nice gig for mr snaith, tis a long way from the cat club.
Caribou would be great for support, but nothing confirmed on that yet, but he is already confirmed as support for all of the European July Radiohead gigs.
In the meantime, some strict anti tout ticket sale measures have surfaced. (for the UK gigs at least). The majority of tickets will be paperless, so very little physical tickets issued and the credit card holder must be present to gain entry to the venue. The credit card holder thing is nothing new, but the paperless tickets system should in theory, limit tout activity for Radiohead gigs which are likely to be in very strong demand.

Big time and well deserved too.

Just assuming there or have you heard something? I'm waiting patiently to see Radiohead having missed out last time they were here with Beck in support.

No, nothing definitive, but they have been announcing the recent tour in small batches of gigs. Today 3 Uk and 2 European gigs announced. Yesterday, they announced 11 U.S. East coast gigs. It's been a slow drip feed of gig annoucements over recent months, but the band were aware of this, staggering of dates and announced last December there would be an Autumn Tour in the UK.
They have never toured, and not played Dublin & Glasgow(for example which was conspiciously left out of todays gigs announcement) in almost 20 years, so why they would not play Dublin on this tour ? So, yes I am assuming, based on their touring habits of the last 20 years.
Will be going to one or more UK gigs anyway plus Dublin.
The question is when will that Dublin gig be on ? For starters it can only be in the O2, these are the venue sizes they are playing for their stage setup.There is an almost 10 week schedule gap from the end of July to the today- announced Manchester gig October 6th. There is more time from when they finish in Oz on November 17th to the end of the year, and a another possibility would be late October.
Logistically, it would make more sense to do Dublin (and maybe Belfast Odyssey)prior to Manchester->London->Europe so thats the more likely option.

Sounds about right, I don't doubt for a second that they'll play here, was just hoping you might have heard something the rest of us hadn't!
