Radiohead Remixed Myspace, Extend Tour

I don’t know if this is a joke or not, but Radiohead announced that the name of their social networking site is W.A.S.T.E. Central. My guess is you can either waste your time, or all you’ll find in it is garbage.

Technically speaking, W.A.S.T.E. Central is your typical Social Networking site, like say Myspace or Facebook, with the “regular features of a social network – a main portal, members/fans own private spaces (profiles), blog and message board features and of course the most important ingredient of a true-blue social networking site, especially geared as a fan base -> facility to upload songs, photos and videos.” Says Rotorblog’s Zafra.

It would be unbelievably stupid for any non-Radiohead fan to join, but if they did, they won’t be missing out on anything any other network offers. But, for hardcore Radiohead fans, W.A.S.T.E., is Mecca. Not only will they get to create their own profile and establish their presence within the realm of the most important rock band on earth, but they get access to Radiohead-related clips, up-to-date band tour listings, and who knows later on, some good old’ Radiohead freebies; I’m thinking In Rainbows: The Sequel, no?
