Radiohead Performs Classics, 'Lotus Flower' At Haiti Benefit Concert

Submitted by admin on Mon, 2010-01-25 12:14

Radiohead [1] played a Haiti benefit concert at Los Angeles' Music Box on Sunday night (Jan. 24), and while the band performed favorites like "Fake Plastic Trees," "Karma Police" and "Bodysnatchers" (ateaseweb.com [2] has the full setlist), frontman Thom Yorke [3] also did a solo version of "Lotus Flower," a new song he debuted last fall with his other band consisting of Flea [4], Nigel Godrich, Joey Waronker and Mauro Refosco.

Tickets for Radiohead's Haiti benefit concert were auctioned off to the highest bidders, with the most expensive one going for $2,000. When all was said and done, Yorke announced that the show had raised a total of $572,754 for Oxfam.
