One of Bush's daughters was at the Radiohead show in NYC
From Radiohead's blog

this'll make you laugh.

i was told yesterday that one of the daughters of the president came to NY show 2.
we were playing THe Tourist at the end of the show.. and yyes we did wander what the shuffling manhandling fighting was in the distance of the audience.
turns out it was her 6 bodyguards clearing the way for the first daughters exit. and some pour soul objected at being manhandled by the secret service. i think i would have to.

infact if i had known all this my objections would have been more forthright and extensive...if you know what i mean. which is perhaps why our lot chose not to tell me who was in the building before we went on. probably a good idea.


hmm
i dont know if we should be

A. honoured
B. amused
C. bemused
D. ask if she had a valid ticket
E. object belatedly on moral grounds
F. ask again if she had a ticket and question whether this really what our gigs are about
G. dont blame the daughter for the father
H. shutup and smile

answers on a postcard

bonaroo today woo hoo
Thom

3. It takes
"her 6 bodyguards" for one of his daughters.....

Shit,, If Clinton's daughter had to have SIX bodyguards, RUSH would be talking 24/7 about the waste of tax payers money... Double :grr:

5. Part of me feels bad for her...
It seems her guards made her leave during the last song. That's just not right. You don't leave during "The Tourist". You pack a bowl and pretend that you are in heaven.

11. I feel bad for the people around her who were
trying to pack a bowl and pretend they were in heaven, only to be loudly and rudely disturbed by some silver spoon asshole who thinks it's ok to leave during the encore. It's hard enough to have a decent concert experience these days...

4. Why aren't both of them in uniform?
The Bush spawn should be in uniform in Iraq. Nothing else is sufficient.

12. the demon seeds should be shipped to iraq ASAP
it's obscene they have the freedom to go on with their frivolous and decadent lifestyles, while thousands of our citizens have died or been permanently injured in this bullshit of a war.

DISGUSTING!

9. Lol
This *did* make me laugh. Imagine being a fan of a group and knowing that they think your dad is an asshole. For some reason I am guessing it was the blond one (Jenna?) In a way I feel bad for her because she probably just wanted to go see some band she liked, smoke a few bowls and enjoy the music, but now she is being made fun of by the band just because her dad is a fuckehead.

Oh well, I don't feel really *that* bad. I just think it's funny.

14. I wonder if she applauded with everybody else during 'No Surprises'
When Thom sings "bring down the government, they don't speak for us!" :P
