Here's a transcript of some of Thom's speech that he made on March 22 at the Fairford anti-war rally: "My name's Thom Yorke, I'm in a band called Radiohead. I don't know if anybody's heard of me. We feel strongly about this. I've spent a lot of time in America recently and I went to two demos in America, one in LA and one in San Francisco, and you'd be amazed how many Americans are scared shitless of this administration. They are terrified. They didn't vote them in, they don't want them in and they're all on the streets, which, frankly, in LA is very unusual. I reckon there's probably people on the other side of this fence (RAF Fairford) who feel the same way. I think for the first time, a war is being waged and there is no way the majority of people in a so called democracy state believe in that war. Why? Because America is being run by a bunch of religious maniac bigots who stole their election and their only way of retaining power is to wage a war. Find a war: Wage a war. Get the next election. They need this war before the next election, it's the only reason it's being fought. It is not moral it is self-seeking."

I think "I can't wait for their new CD" is a fair response to his speech.

same liberal bullshit, how can he claim how america feels as a whole when he talks to people in LA, fucking capital of liberalism but i love the band and i'm still gonna buy the new record and also, why do you care what thom yorke has to say about the war, why would he know any better than you or me, and why does his opinion mean more than others?

"LA, fucking capital of liberalism" Sorry, that'd be my hometown of Seattle. Anyone remember the WTO protests? Very noble cause.
What he had to say was rather nice, much better than all of these indifferent pussies who wave thier flag from the sidelines. It is good to see celebrities using thier fame for something other than selling pepsi as of late.
