RADIOHEAD CAN'T GIVE TICKETS AWAY

Rockers RADIOHEAD were left with rows of empty seats at a recent concert after a eco-friendly stunt to give away tickets backfired.
The Creep hitmakers announced that 50 passes for their show at Paris' Bercy Arena would be given to those fans who collected them by bicycle from record label XL's office in the French capital.
But the band's devotees failed to snap up the offer - leaving the band with band with 35 unclaimed tickets for their 10 June (08) gig.
A source tells British newspaper The Sun, "Radiohead are using their current world tour to highlight their commitment to green issues.
"They advise all gig-goers to use public transport and are doing all they can to make their carbon footprint as small as possible.
"Unfortunately the French didn't appear to share their noble intentions and roundly ignored the free ticket tactic."
