Radiohead at Jobing.com Arena on Twitter

I hate going concerts with any sort of expectations because I usually walk away disappointed. I've been a casual fan since I first heard "Fake Plastic Trees" in Clueless, which is pretty funny when you think of the song in the context of the movie.

Once the Coachella line-up was announced, I considered selling my ticket to last night's show. I'm glad I ended up going, because honestly, if I had waited a month to see Radiohead play the same set, I would have got bored and left.

Before you leave a comment begging me to get fired, hear me out. Like I said earlier, I'm a casual fan. The King of Limbs stuff doesn't really do it for me. I'm glad I stuck it out though, because the encores made for a great show. I could not have asked for a stronger ending than "Paranoid Android."

My lukewarm response to the beginning of Radiohead's set was not common, judging from your tweets. I took to Twitter and found lots of people hyping the show up as much as I initially expected.

Remember to follow us @phxmusicdotcom and tweet at us to discuss.

@the_clean_freak Under normal circumstances I'd be really upset I have to go to work in 2.5 hours, but I just saw Radiohead. So I'm cool with it.

@katedecker3 @radiohead @Kazyavka1 @colindole how much are dancing lessons from thom yorke?

@maxmullet There won't be a concert in AZ this year that tops that one. #radiohead

@negativesleep Today I was fortunate enough to see a band that I have always wanted to see live. Well worth the wait. Thanks for a great show @radiohead

@ImMoDiggity: Aural and visual candy. Probably the best show I've ever seen. #radiohead

@AlanaPorter Gave Radiohead to some guy at http://Jobbing.com Arena tonight & it was much better than regularhead #radiohead

@IrishFire99 My ears are ringing, my feet are aching, & I can't stop smiling-sure signs of a great show! Radiohead killed, natch. Lighting was amazing!

@vutastic Is a Radiohead show that exciting that you have to tweet about it? Or are you so bored you have to tweet just so time can go by faster?

@photoatomic So tonight I saw Radiohead in the Miami Disneyland of awful chain restaurants and bars. http://pic.twitter.com/qQ2t1e4M

@take_the_stairs Ya know, I do like Radiohead and that was a good show, but I will never understand the level of their mass appeal.

@jaimsclements HOLY HELL I JUST SAW RADIOHEAD AND MET OTHER LIVES AHHHHHH TOO MUCH TO HANDLE

@mitchmorby Just experienced radiohead live for the first time. Dunno how those sounds are made by humans playing musical instruments #mindblown #robots

@Guy_Gerard @radiohead Did I just see the best live show of my entire life???

@DavidAppletree the only thing that absolutely sucks about radiohead is their politics. i hope most their fans just enjoy the music and ignore the politics.

@Fun_Beard At this point, Radiohead should just call every one of their songs Bleep Blop Bloop Drum Machine.

@tarquinc #Radiohead. Epic. OH: It's like a religious experience! http://pic.twitter.com/Eb2CphJL

@SomethingSummer I laughed I cried I never wanted it to end. #radiohead
