Radiohead have endorsed a free downloadable fan-made DVD of their Haiti Benefit concert.
Once again, the offer is akin to the fan-made live in Prague free DVD that came out in September.
The Haiti relief concert that the band performed at the Henry Ford Theatre in LA on January 24 this year was filmed and is now available to download for free.
It was a fan initiative, but the band have endorsed it, and are asking fans to make a donation to Oxfam America for their troubles.
It’s up on a blog, here, along with a statement.
“It was a SPECIAL show with a SPECIAL purpose – to raise badly needed funds for those who lived through the devastation. And it seemed only appropriate that the DVD should carry on some of these goals. So on the behalf of our little team of three, I contacted the band/management to tell them about our project and asked to name a charity of their choice – so that those downloading the DVD could donate some money to it – however much they can (‘cause we trust Radiohead’s choices don’t we?). We were thrilled to hear that Radiohead supported our efforts and named Haiti to be the ‘beneficiary’ of such donations.”
