Radiohead\u2019s four-night stand at Madrid\u2019s Movistar Arena wrapped up Saturday night. These were their first concerts in seven years, and they dug deep into their catalog every night. The third show featured the first performance of \u201cJust\u201d since 2009, and they dug out \u201cOptimistic\u201d on the closing night for the first time since 2018.<\/p>\n
\u201cJust\u201d appears on The Bends, <\/em>and was a live favorite throughout the Nineties and the early 2000s. But it vanished from the rotation following the band\u2019s set at the Reading Festival on Aug. 30, 2009.<\/p>\n More from Rolling Stone<\/strong><\/p>\n \u201cOptimistic\u201d was the first song the public heard from Kid A<\/em> since it was released as a promotional single just a few days before the album dropped. It gave fans a slightly skewered perception of the LP since it\u2019s the most guitar-based song on the collection. Over the years, it\u2019s become somewhat of a concert rarity with 97 performances, most of which took place in the early 2000s. (By comparison, they\u2019ve done \u201cThe National Anthem,\u201d \u201cIdioteque,\u201d and \u201cEverything in it\u2019s Right Place\u201d more than 300 times each.)<\/p>\n This tour marks the first time that Radiohead have gone out without either a new album to promote or new songs to road test. As a result, they\u2019re digging deep into their catalog and dragging out rarities like \u201cSit Down. Stand Up,\u201d and \u201c(Nice Dream)\u201d that they haven\u2019t played in years.<\/p>\n Amazingly, they\u2019ve done 41 different songs after just four shows. Prior to the tour, bassist Colin Greenwood said they\u2019d rehearsed about 70. \u201cSo we\u2019ll play anything in any order, at any time,\u201d he said. <\/a>\u201cWe sort of take a busking attitude to the Radiohead set list.\u201d<\/p>\n They\u2019ve also taken a busking approach to the order of songs in the set. \u201cPlanet Telex,\u201d for example, was in the encore of the second show, and it was the opener of the third one. It makes it impossible to predict what they\u2019re going to play next. Every night, however, they\u2019ve performed \u201c2 + 2 = 5,\u201d \u201cEverything in Its Right Place,\u201d \u201cFul Stop,\u201d \u201cIdioteque,\u201d \u201cLet Down,\u201d \u201cParanoid Android,\u201d \u201cThere There,\u201d \u201cWeird Fishes\/Arpeggi,\u201d and \u201cYou and Whose Army?\u201d at some point.<\/p>\n The tour resumes Nov. 14 in Bologna, Italy. It then heads to London before wrapping up in Copenhagen. They\u2019re playing four shows in every market. As of now, there are no indications about possible North American shows in 2026.<\/p>\n Best of Rolling Stone<\/strong><\/p>\n Sign up for RollingStone’s Newsletter<\/a>.
