Radiohead perform in front of 47,000 fans in Tel Aviv

Radiohead played their concert in Tel Aviv last night, defying weeks of pressure by Boycott, Divestment and Sanctions campaigners.

The British rock band performed a selection of their most famous songs for the 47,000 strong crowd, including Creep”, “Paranoid Android”, and “The Bends”.

In all they played 27 songs, with a main set and two prolonged encores, in what is said to have been their longest concert for over a decade.

 

The band had faced demands that they cancel their show in Israel, with former Pink Floyd frontman Roger Waters and film director Ken Loach leading the boycott calls.
