Hi all, If anyone has intel on a Saturday ticket for Sydney could you please message me. Thanks!
Comments on Thom’s social media accounts are calling him a fascist, a genocide enabler, a Zionist, and other disgusting names that have no basis in truth. It makes me feel sick. All these abusive people hide behind social media, claiming they’re the good guys when all they do is screech abuse at strangers. Thom has done more than any of them and almost any other major musician in history to further anti-war causes and climate emergency awareness, among other noble causes. He is an advocate for peace. No one knows what’s going on in his head but knowing his views and politics there is simply no way he isn’t appalled and sickened by what is happening in Gaza. The fact that he’s chosen to not directly speak out does not make him a ‘genocide enabler’. He knows just how volatile and sensitive this issue is and will have carefully considered whether his voice is going to help or not. He also has Jonny and Jonny’s Israeli wife to consider, who are likely deeply connected to the Israeli hostage situation, emotionally and personally. Him speaking out will achieve nothing in material terms, but it will certainly upset a lot of people, depending on its content. People will pick and tear it apart for not being strong enough, partisan enough, and so on.
Thom is a deep thinker. The lyrics of Don’t Get Me Started sum it up really. He’s not the villain. The lyrics to Tiptoe are also clearly about a holocaust and its enablers. There’s no way Thom doesn’t think what’s going on is abhorrent. Yet people abuse him over this issue and fail to mention or even care about other less well publicised genocides and war crimes that Thom has directly spoken out against. He is on the side of peace and humanity and always will be. The music proves that. The people attacking him are showing no humanity whatsoever.
Anyone who can meet up last second and trade? As stated I have a physical ticket. Just hmu .
I'm selling one physical ticket for the show on Sat 2nd Nov. Message me if you're interested.
Here's what Thom said before the drama. It's been lost in the noise, unfortunately, but I thought it was worth hearing the entire speech.

BOOK NOW!!!
EDIT BOTH DAYS AVAILABLE NOW Edit: All gone
As title says. Decided to bring my Kid Amnesia poster seeing that some lucky Melbourne folks got stuff signed.
Now I have to ask: does anyone have experience at the Forecourt? Need to know where to wait for him and all that. Any info would be soo helpful.
Going solo both nights and happy to meet fellow fans too, lemme know.
I presume you're on this sub reddit... I just wanted to say a massive massive thanks you for these videos you've been uploading to YouTube. I, along with I presume thousands more have been very grateful to see some of these songs live. But then there's so many more who have not been able to go to any shows or not been able to go to more than one show around the world. So this is just a thank you for what you've been doing. It's been bringing me ao much joy recently to log into yt and see another video uploaded by you!!! It hasn't gone unnoticed!!!

Can anyone enlighten to what was yelled that caused Thom to storm off stage after his second last track tonight?
Hello -
Would anyone be so kind that they would buy me the EP and ship it to Europe?
It would obviously pay for whatever it would cost and could send you anything in return from Europe.
Would love for this magic to happen please DM will be in town a day early with my wife and would love to see this Friday show. I just signed up to tixel if it helps
Anyone having issues accessing their ticket through tixel right no?
anyone yorkeing their tom rn?
where u at??? 😝😝😝
Emergency last minute, does anyone have 2x stall tickets for tonight’s show
Was curious if anyone from the Sydney pop up had any of the little free art work that was on the walls and maybe didn't know what to do with them. I was looking for two pieces, any ones, and to pay for them. Would obviously be Sydney based and I'd be happy to pick up :)
hello!! does anyone have tickets they are selling for either friday night or saturday night in sydney? 🙏🙏 here is my tixel link if you are 🙏 taylah's profile https://tixel.com/u/taylahn4
Anyone selling 2x stall tickets for tonight’s show? Dm me if you are
Hey, what time are people likely to be lining up for the Sydney show? I'm flying down the night before so have all the time in the world on the Friday to queue, but have never been to a show at the Opera House Forecourt before. Travelling by myself and am just so freakishly excitable.
And a merch question... what's currently being sold? and is merch still available after the show at all?
Just prepping for religious experience here - I've never been lucky enough to see Radiohead live despite being a fan since The Bends, and seeing this on the steps of the Opera House feels like a definite religious moment coming up.
I was about to purchase tickets off Stubhub, but I saw a comment in r/radiohead with this link: https://ticketjam.jp/tickets/thom-yorke — these listings seem more reliable as they're from locals, and the listings claim they'll send over the ticket on the ePlus app ~10 days before the shows.
Just ordered tickets for 11/23, 11/24 and 11/26! Ping me if you're also going, would love to meet up!
