Radiohead Invite Kraftwerk To Support On Spring Tour

added 06 January 2009 at 11.31

The German electro-wizards will support the Oxford kings in Latin America…

Kraftwerk will support Radiohead on a string of dates throughout Central and South American, starting in Mexico City on March 15.

Meanwhile, one quarter of Kraftwerk has quit according to the band’s official fan web site.

Florian Schneider, one of the co-founders of the German electro act, gave no reason for his departure.

Schneider did not appear on the band’s world tour last year, and is now understood to be working on a solo venture.

In September other remaining original member Ralf Hutter told the New Zealand Herald that Schneider has spent the last few years "working on other projects."
