This one's for the folks still clicking those thumbs_down and Scotch Mist links: In their ongoing campaign to make themselves as freely available to the world as possible, Radiohead have taken to deadairspace to announce they'll be live webcasting tonight's in-store at London's Rough Trade East location. If you're in London town, here's the location information. Probably won't be too tough to get close, it's only Radiohead. (While you're there, tell Jonny good luck with the BAFTAs.) The rest of us will just have to make do with Radiohead.tv.

A simply awesome Thom interview, in which, among other things, we find out just how many people paid the maximum allowed £99.99 for the In Rainbows download: 15! Betcha they remember each one of those 15's name, too. Which would make for the ultimate icebreaker next time you bump into the band hanging out with Britt Daniel at HiFi.
