How does Radiohead's output compare to PJ's in terms of number of songs recorded?
Off the top of my head PJ probably has about 200 officially released songs.

Radiohead has roughly 100 songs between their 9 albums, and maybe 60-70 more B-sides. I'm just spitballing. They generally play 50-60 on any given tour, with some songs getting played every night or almost every night, some songs getting played once every 4-5 shows, and others 1-3 times a tour.
Here are some songs I don't ever expect them to play again:
everything off Pablo Honey other than "Creep", and maybe "Lurgee" (which hung around until 2003 and which they seem to like a lot)
High and Dry
Bones
Sulk
Electioneering (unless they decide to play OK Computer all the way through)
Motion Picture Soundtrack
Push/Pulk (never performed live)
Life in a Glasshouse
everything on HTTT other than 2+2=5, WIE+YB, The Gloaming, There There, Myxomatosis and maybe Go to Sleep
all B-sides / non-album tracks other than Talk Show Host and the TKOL non-album tracks

Sad to see that Decks Dark seems to have been abandoned in favour of Desert Island Disk
Thin flipped the bird to a fan requesting Decks Dark last night. I assume the lyrics are about his wife dying of cancer, which, if I'm correct, is probably not something he wants to perform ever again.
Did you see this in person? Because it seems like the consensus online is that the photo might have been photoshopped. But if it wasn't...yeah, that's an interesting reaction from Thom.
Deck's Dark didn't really work that well live, either. I love the song to death but I'm okay with not hearing it tonight.

So on paper, pretty similar numbers to PJ.
I wish I had another band in addition to PJ like this. Closest for me would be Counting Crows who haven't mixed up their sets much in my experience.

Portland setlist:
1. Daydreaming
2. Desert Island Disk
3. Ful Stop
4. Airbag
5. 15 Step
6. The National Anthem (With "Hunting Bears" outro)
7. Separator
8. All I Need
9. Street Spirit (Fade Out)
10. Bloom
11. Identikit
12. Everything in Its Right Place
13. There There
14. Weird Fishes/Arpeggi
15. I Might Be Wrong
16. Idioteque
17. Nude
Encore 1: 18. Glass Eyes
19. No Surprises
20. Burn the Witch
21. Reckoner
22. Lotus Flower
Encore 2:
23. You and Whose Army? 24. Creep
My first show in 9 years and their first Portland show in 21 years. It was fantastic, but the setlist felt a little safe other than "Glass Eyes", which was breathtaking (at least for me). I'm going to chalk that up to them not having played Portland in forever. I was surprised at how little OK Computer they played, so my friends who were with me who mostly knew their earlier stuff were a little bummed by that. But it was Radiohead, and it was still amazing.

On paper doesn't look as good as Seattle, but trust it was the fire
Creep ending is like nothing else

It was, worked really well as the opening encore song. Probably the best performance of the night - along with Creep (that riff right before the chorus sounded amazing), Street Spirit, and You and Whose Army?.
There were 3 songs I really wanted to hear, and I got 2 of them (Street Spirit and You and Whose Army? - didn't get How to Disappear Completely)
Incredible show, even my girlfriend who is a casual fan loved it. Was really surprised they played Creep, and even more surprised they closed with it. Was expecting one more song with the way previous setlists had played out.

I shared a list of the top 5 songs I wanted to hear in Seattle. This was the only one I didn't get.
i love the album version, but i've never really cared for it live. i think the atmospherics they add in the studio really make the song.
i read somewhere that the studio take is from thom singing while lying down drunk.
*Edit: Jesus, I just read the write up on wiki, and it sounds like i lifted my entire post here directly from that source.
