Radiohead Performance of 2+2=5 and 15 Steps at Bonnaroo 2006

Venue: Bonnaroo Location: Manchester, TN, United States Date: June 16, 2006

In June 2006, Radiohead graced the Bonnaroo festival stage, delivering a performance that was electrifying and deeply resonant. At this point in their career, they had just released their sixth studio album, "Hail to the Thief," in 2003, which showcased a blend of rock and political themes. This live recording, featuring standout tracks like "2+2=5" and "15 Step," is significant not just for the songs but for the band's evolving sound and approach in a post-9/11 world. Interestingly, it marked a time when Radiohead was experimenting with new technologies and soundscapes, setting the stage for their later work. They were also known for their commitment to live performance, often incorporating improvisation, which added a layer of spontaneity to this Bonnaroo show.
