Singer of Radiohead May Bring the Tour to a Halt

Thom Yorke, singer of the group Radiohead, is looking into ending his tour due to his environmental convictions.

For this English star, touring involves travelling, which he thinks is detrimental to the environment.

Yorke told the Guardian, "I think it’s a necessary part of what I do, to tour or play live, but I find it unacceptable what the consequences of that are. Some of our best ever shows have been in the US, but there’s 80,000 people there and they’ve all been sitting in traffic jams for five or six hours with their engines running to get there, which is bollocks."

He concluded, "I would consider refusing to tour on environmental grounds, if nothing started happening to change the way the touring operates."
