Also, about hipsters listening to Radiohead, Radiohead is far too popular for hipsters. Actually, that was one of the early telltale signs of a hipster: a huge music fan (not your casual top 40 listener who) calling Radiohead overrated. A sort of hipster litmus test. Now, of course, being "hipster" is essentially the new mainstream with kids, so has pretty much lost any discernible meaning.
Hipsters view of Radiohead is hilarious. Difficult, music industry defying, and always maintaining their integrity, they are practically god's gift to hipsters. But ask any good hipster and they'll tell you how Radiohead is pretty good. Then throw some barely masked, hipster imaged pop music at them and they are fat kids at a candy store.
