MTV's Superock goes behind the scenes at the Wiltern Theatre in Los Angeles in 1997, on the first night of Radiohead's American tour. First nights are nerve-racking, one of them says, because the technical problems have to be ironed out and there can be some rust, though they have just come from a run of European festivals. The buses are lovely and big, and the downside is being away from home for a long time.
The crew get the credit, and the band have it easiest of anyone: the nine crew were in the venue at eight in the morning, while the band mosey in at half past three to soundcheck. The camera is handed over to the guitar technicians. Outside, fans who have waited all day say the band came out to sign autographs and pose for pictures, and seemed in a good mood.
