Rolling Stone rank Radiohead the second greatest live band, behind U2

Radiohead are the second greatest live band, behind U2, in the current issue of Rolling Stone. The magazine credits them with turning even this June's troubled Field Day festival into a triumph, and says the politics and electronics of the records make sense once heard at full volume live. Its pick for best live album is the 2001 I Might Be Wrong EP.

Its pick for their best tour is the North American leg of the OK Computer tour in July and August 1997. It was a miserable time for the band, as Meeting People Is Easy shows, but it let American audiences see an arena-sized group in relatively small venues.
