This was the 3rd time I have seen my obsession band at the bowl....and in no way was I disappointed. The band was tight, the visuals (light and video cam) never distracting,the sound  clear and trance evoking, but what I loved the most was the energy each band member exuded. Thom Yorke was playful, soulful, and inspired. Ed O'Brien genuinely smiled pretty much throughout the entire set as if he knew this night was a blast. Johnny Greenwood's head bowed down in his bass while his shiny black hair did it's shimmy.  Phil Selway and Colin Greenwood adding their unique contributions that make Radiohead unlike any other musical collaboration. The crowd was packed with LA's coolest but oddly enough, everyone was not playing cool...Radiohead humbles and levels the playing field....The highlight of the night for me was "Talk Show Host" and the 2nd encore..At that point, I hit my bliss and the crowd seemed to also. The concert for me did what I love music to do..Bring us together.
