SPIN Brings Fans on Tour with Radiohead via Kyte

SPIN Magazine super fan Zack Newman is at it again!  Fresh off of tour with Pearl Jam, Zack is now documenting Radiohead’s West coast tour on SPIN’s branded Kyte channel.  Is he the luckiest guy in the world or what?!  Well, we all can join in on the fun by tuning in to SPIN’s Kyte channel and checking out live performances and behind the scenes footage from the tour.  And fans can communicate with Zack (and each other) in real-time using the multimedia chat feature on the SPIN channel. 

So be sure to tune in.  It’s (almost) as cool as being there!
