dude man i have read a lot of stories about fans of radiohead and their personal experiences, but yours would have to be one of the best. i mean come on man you ate dinner with the band, got to have a few beers with greenwood, and thomas edward yorke, of all people complemented your work and actually quoted it at shows!!! but yeah man 350 bucks? that is bull shit and it just goes to show that most big corporations don’t give a crap about music and what was put into it, but just the money that can be made off of it.

Its extremely likely that Radiohead don’t actually own the rights to lyrics or music from The Bends, which was recorded at time in their career before they had any real power, and thus are in no position to decide how they may be used. It is fairly typical for new artists to sell the rights to their material up front to generate capital at the risk of never having their work released or promoted if the company sees no commercial potential in it. Its a calculated risk for both parties.
