 Radiohead The band's eco friendly invitation doesn't get a great welcome in French, despite on giving free tickets for their recent gig at the Bercy Arena in Paris earlier this week.
Radiohead, who promises 50 free tickets to fans that are willing to get it at their label, XL's office by using bicycle, felt devastated in the end as there were about 35 tickets left uncollected.
The rockers who are known for their commitment on environmental care, have actually set to promote their eco-friendly program on their tour. "Radiohead are using their current world tour to highlight their commitment to green issues," said a source to The Sun.
One of the plans the band use is by giving free tickets for those who care about their environment, just like what they did for their gig in Paris.
Explaining Radiohead's plan, the source said, "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, it seems that the band's fans in France don't really dig the bicycle idea. Confirming it to the media, the source stated, "Unfortunately the French didn't appear to share their noble intentions and roundly ignored the free ticket tactic."
