Worried about traffic tonight? We are too. Tony Gomez wrote in and let us know about some construction work that may affect you:

for the chicago show, construction is going to start at 9 p.m central time on the chicago interstate system. i’ve been personally involved before in chicago’s night time construction and it’s horrible. you can find out more @ chicagotribune.com. click on traffic. i suggest telling people to prepare for delays, and leave early. traffic will be reduced to one lane wherever possible.

Green Plastic on Vacation
Yes, I will be heading up to Chicago shortly with a friend to see tonight’s show. Then it’s off to Toronto and Montreal. After those two concerts, I will be secluded up in New York away from technology and computers so greenplastic.com will not be updated until sometime around August 17. If I do get a chance to access the Internet, I may make a couple of news updates. 🙂

Thom the roadie
Their is an article up at Chart Attack about the Beta Band touring with Radiohead. Here’s a snippet:

When they did the first Western leg of the tour with Radiohead they were so financially destitute that their tour manager didn? have a cellphone. This left publicists stranded when trying to contact them for interviews. They couldn? afford roadies either and MacLean said that problem was solved by, “Radiohead help us out with roading. They move a lot of our equipment on stage for us. Thom Yorke carries Steve? [Mason] guitar on stage every night for him. They?e quite muscly. You wouldn? think it, but Thom Yorke? a tough wee guy.”

The “I Might Be Wrong” video is now ready for you to view at http://www.radiohead.com/009.html. The video was directed by Chris Bran of the Vapour Brothers and was originally the second “Pyramid Song” video the Vapour Brothers had done but changed it to fit “I Might Be Wrong”. {thanks to Adam}

Campus Greens update
Unfortunately, Radiohead will not be able to make it to the August 10 Campus Greens Super Rally in Chicago. This is from Rally Coordinator Clint Hendler:

I’m very sorry to report that Radiohead will not be able to attend the Campus Greens Rally For Radical Change. This time the tour schedule wouldn’t allow it, but we guarantee that we will try to get Radiohead sometime again in the future. I hope that greenplastic readers in the Chicago area will still consider attending a night of great political
speakers and performers, including Ralph Nader, Cornel West, Patti Smith, and former “Dead Kennedys” frontman Jello Biafra.
