So, it took a while to get the answer directly from Radiohead's U.K. peeps, but thanks to the tenaciousness of the band's NYC PR folks, we now have the exact second at which tickets will go on sale for Radiohead's May 18 show at Starplex. Ready? Here goes.

They will be available for those wanting to beat the crowds right here beginning at 8 a.m. tomorrow morning Dallas time. Got that? Eight in the morning. Eight. A. M. So set your alarm clocks and get that special someone -- meaning, you -- something special on Valentine's Day. If that's what you're into. --Robert Wilonsky

Update: So, word is the good tix are gone -- that's what the Friends report. The tickets went on sale at 7:55 a.m., actually -- and reserved seats went in less than a minute. But tickets will go on sale to the general public in a couple of days. I'd hate to say when, jeez.
