Thom Yorke and co announced their first gigs in over seven years back in September, revealing 20 shows across five cities this autumn and winter.

At the time of writing, Radiohead have performed 43 different tracks across eight concerts. The band are also playing in the round in the centre of the venue throughout the tour.

Guitarist Jonny Greenwood told us there are no plans for new material to be played, while brother and bassist Colin confirmed this in a separate interview: “It’s going to be the first time I think we’ve done shows where we haven’t got new material to play as work in progress.”
However, Colin then mysteriously said: “But you never know, some stuff might come up or not or whatever.”
Now, Radiohead have officially commenced their tour with their first gig at the Movistar Arena in Madrid taking place on Tuesday (November 4). Their 25-song opening night setlist balanced a mix of deep cuts and fan favourites as the band kicked off with ‘Let Down’ – which recently charted in the US after going viral on TikTok, much to their surprise. The setlist leaned most heavily on tracks from 2003’s ‘Hail To The Thief’, which was recently revisited for the Yorke co-created Hamlet To The Thief play and archive live album. This included an outing of ‘Sit Down. Stand Up’ for the first time since 2004.
RecommendedMeanwhile, their second show (November 5) saw them lean more heavily into their albums ‘In Rainbows’ and ‘The Bends’, as the band performed ‘Jigsaw Falling Into Place’ and ‘Nice Dream’ for the first time since 2009.
On the third night (November 7), they drew mostly from ‘OK Computer’ and ‘Hail To The Thief’, playing ‘Let Down’, ‘Lucky’, ‘No Surprises’ ‘2 + 2 = 5’ and ‘A Wolf at the Door’, among others.
During the encore, they also played ‘Just’ for the first time in 16 years, telling the crowd: “I don’t know if you remember this one”, before breaking into the ‘The Bends’ track.

On the band’s fourth and final night in Madrid (November 8), Radiohead treated fans to a balanced set on tracks performed on previous nights – aside from ‘Kid A’ classic ‘Optimistic’ which made its tour debut.
They kicked off their first night in Bologna’s Unipol Arena with ‘The Bends’ track ‘Planet Telex’, before launching into a setlist identical to that of their third night in Madrid, comprising of mostly tracks from ‘OK Computer’ and ‘Hail To The Thief’.
The following night (November 15) was kicked off with ‘2 + 2 = 5’ and saw them perform a setlist virtually identical to that of their fourth night in Madrid. They wrapped things up with an encore that saw them draw once again from ‘OK Computer’, with tracks from ‘Kid A’, ‘The Bends’ and ‘A Moon Shaped Pool’ thrown in.
On November 17, Radiohead gave both the ‘Kid A’ title track and 1996 B-side ‘Talk Show Host’ their tour debuts in Bologna for their third night at the Unipol Arena. They opened the fourth and final evening (Tuesday November 18) with ‘2+2=5’, with the encore featuring ‘Present Tense’, ‘The Daily Mail’ and more.
November 21’s gig saw them kick things off in London with their first show in the capital since 2017. Playing the first of four nights at the O2, they treated fans to a career-spanning 25-track setlist. While the UK audience are yet to hear any surprise additions to the setlist, three massive hits from ‘OK Computer’ – namely ‘Paranoid Android’, ‘Karma Police’ and ‘No Surprises’ proved fan favourites on the night.
