When a supergroup decides to play a surprise intimate show in LA, celebrities flock to the gig, and last night’s Thom Yorke, Flea, Nigel Godrich, Joey Waronker, and Mauro Refosco set at Echoplex was no different. Even though the ‘superaudience’ included Rick Rubin, Danger Mouse, Spike Jonze, Sonic Youth’s Kim Gordon, actress Ellen Page, Muse, and many more, Yorke wasn’t going to let them talk over him while unveiling four new jams: “If you want to have a chat, go fuck off outside, alright?” he said, before starting the piano intro to new song “Open the Floodgates” and adding, “‘cause you won’t get back in.”
Yorke and Friends played 16 songs in about 90 minutes last night and you don’t have to take the word of audience members or reviewers that it was an amazing set because the Internet has been flooded with videos to prove it.
