Weren't things a little... eventful?
Yeah. Very vocal Palestinian protest by one person at the last encore. Fair enough, but unfortunately I don't think the crowd got on their side because of that interruption to the show and their yelling and anger towards Thom Yorke. Crowd actually felt quite tense until the protester decided to leave the venue. Just seemrd like an odd choice by the protester. Buy a ticket then wait until the final encore acoustic song to have their have their say in such an aggressive manner and tone....
Yeah well, the protester didn't want to miss out on the show. There's no point in protesting during the first song and getting escorted out. Palestine is super important and all - but not worth missing out on the whole gig!
(I'm probably being nasty, but I suspect there's a kernel of truth in this)
