Legendary U.K. band made history with their four sold-out shows this month<\/p>\n<\/p><\/div>\n
\n\tLast week, Radiohead<\/a> played four sold-out shows at London\u2019s O2 Arena \u2014 and the gigs ended up beating an attendance record set by Metallica<\/a> at the same venue in 2017. The band played the O2 on Nov. 21, 22, 24 and 25, and each show had at least 22,200 fans in attendance, with the final night reaching 22,355.<\/p>\n \n\t\u201cThese past four record-breaking nights will go down in the venue\u2019s history, with Radiohead breaking the attendance records each night,\u201d Christian D\u2019Acuna, the O2\u2019s senior programming director, said in a press release. \u201cWe knew how special these exclusive shows would be and we\u2019re so grateful to the band for bringing them to The O2. It\u2019s been a true honor to host them, and each night they played different set lists spanning their incredible back catalogue. These shows will be remembered for years to come.\u201d<\/p>\n \n\tRadiohead kicked off a string of tour dates in the U.K. and Europe earlier this month in Madrid<\/a>. The band\u2019s first tour in seven years comes on the heels of the 30th anniversary of their second album, The Bends<\/em>. The unpredictable setlists have included numerous songs they haven\u2019t played in years, like the Amnesiac <\/em>track \u201cLike Spinning Plates<\/a>\u201d which they broke out at the final London show.<\/p>\n
