This is why Aphex doesn't DJ on the floor anymore. "People just stand there and stare at you instead of dancing"

Actually he said quite the opposite. If you do a gig, people just stare at you, but if you say you're going to DJ, they'll dance and have a good time.

Of course this doesn't apply all the time.

Take it to the Thom Yorke sub forum - Oh wait, there isn't one.

Never mind.

I love Radiohead and Thom Yorke but fuck me, know when to fold. There's a reason why you don't see RDJ or Jeff MIlls trying out the singer/songwriter bit and I would have expected Thom to understand that the reverse should also hold. His late-to-the-party Warp/electronic fetish has gotten the best of him and I can't blame the crowd for not knowing what to do. Admittedly, if I were there, I would be thinking "it's Thom fucking Yorke!" because of a long-standing case of fanboy related to Radiohead and I'm sure that's the case for at least a few there. Plus, they know they're being filmed for the entire fucking world to see, which would be slightly inhibiting.

 

tl;dr summary: trololololololololololol

quality post mate

what was that first track he played?

I like how the guy in the white starts texting at 2:50 for exactly 1 minute

I think what he meant is that this is why he plays up on a stage above everybody as opposed to on the floor in a more intimate setting. He doesn't want to be surrounded by a bunch of starstruck zombies.
