The gig was originally due to take place at the Rough Trade East shop but was moved on the advice of the Police.
Taking to the stage Thom Yorke promised the audience in the room and those watching on the live webcast a "warts and all" show. The band then preceded to play 'In Rainbows' in the track listing order in its entirety.

Following the ten songs of 'In Rainbows' the band departed the stage before returning for a five song encore.
