Thom Yorke Live

This is Thom from the Henry Rollins show. Pretty sweet and non-acoustic. This features Thom on Fender Rhodes Electric Piano, Jonny Greenwood on something he made from metal bits and a keyboard (I saw him play this with Radiohead live), and some other guy (sorry dude, get your name out there) on a beat machine . I heard Jonny created the instrument he played. It looks like two strips of metal he presses together at the note and then slides up and down the strip. The note is broken whenever he lets the strips separate. But it's connected to some keyboard internally somehow. Give the track at least 2 minutes, because the cymbals kick in then! Good track "Cymbal Rush" from "The Eraser" album . Good on the album too. The other tracks he's done with Henry were mostly acoustic so this performance was sweet!
