Thom Yorke played a set at Tibet 99, the Tibetan Freedom Concert at the RAI in Amsterdam, yesterday, with Jonny Greenwood beside him on guitar, and opened it with a new song that has no name yet. NME bill it as Yorke's solo appearance and put the set at 25 minutes. Radiohead themselves are making their next album) and have no dates of their own this year.

Among the songs from OK Computer and The Bends, the pair slipped in a cover of Elvis Costello's “I'll Wear It Proudly”, from King of America.

archivist’s note

NME's online copy of the report is stamped 14 May 1999, but it describes the show as yesterday's, so it ran on 14 June.
