Some friends and I are interested in playing Paranoid Android, and i need to find out. How do they do it? I need a play by play of each member of the band, which instruments they play in different parts, and when the change. so for example:

Thom Yorke: Vocals & Acoustic Gutiar throughout
Ed O'brien: That weird shaker thing, changing to guitar at (x) point in song...

And so on. Every member of the band, if possible, also any extra things they use, such as a bassist off stage keeping up when Colin Greenwood is doing something else. Thanks!
 
I read somewhere that it took the band a year and a half to learn how to play the studio version live. It was something they had played in concert for a while, but they ended up with like 15 minute versions in the beginning. Between the paring down of parts and the multiple layers of all sorts of cool stuff going on, I guess it took them a while to figure it out. I'd kinda suggest going with Karma Police.

Check out YouTube.com for a live performance of Paranoid Android, they probably have something. If there are multiple videos, check them all out and take notes. Not each video will have the same camera angels each time, so you could probably figure out what people are doing in various sections after a few different videos.
