Show 2.5: "Covers and 'In Rainbows'"

2.5 was set to be another covers night, but about 20 minutes before the show, I decided I would scrap the playlist if I could get Radiohead's new album, In Rainbows, to play.

I ended up playing songs one through five on the covers playlist, but received In Rainbows before coming back from a block of three covers. As a result, the remainder of the show was a listening party for the new album. Not all the songs were played. You should go and download it from Radiohead.

Radiohead, as many people already know, have made In Rainbows available for download at http://www.inrainbows.com/. You name the price.
