Radiohead blast ticket profiteers

Thom Yorke wants people selling their tickets for Friends of the Earth's Big Ask Live concert to donate some of the profits to charity

The gig sold out within minutes of going on sale and, shortly after, the £55 tickets started trading on eBay and the like for over £300.

Yorke wants 30 percent of profits handed back to Friends of the Earth. "Seems only fair", he posted today on the Radiohead blog. "Unless you're a shallow____, don't you think?"

Radiohead meanwhile continue to work on the follow up to Hail to the Thief. Apparently they are "trying to figure out how on earth we will be able to play some of it".

Nails down a blackboard anyone?
