    NOTE: Since people have asked/noticed--I was a little under the weather the night this was recorded, so I didn't hold the note at 0:49 as long as I'd wanted. We did the song twice that night, so I used the vocals from the other performance to fill in that one spot. The rest of what you're seeing/hearing is the same performance.
    Radiohead "Paranoid Android" - an acoustic cover performed by Mike Massé and Jeff Hall on 9/8/08 at the Pie Pizzeria in Salt Lake City, Utah.

    Our arrangement is based somewhat on an acoustic version I heard him do. So I'm sure there would be "no surprises" for him if he heard it.

    Without exception the greatest cover of this song anywhere in the world

    As someone that has played professionally for 20 years with great success, I would never have attempted this classic song purely because it is so technically difficult. But you guys nailed it - I am in awe!

    Like, if i walked into my local Pizza joint to order a Pizza and this happened, i would most probably just drop on the floor in fetal position. There is no way i would be taking a pizza home. I would however stay and drink many beers. My god these two are amazing!!!!!

    The most amazing part of this performance is that Paranoid Android is normally played by a 5 piece. Not just a 5 piece, but a 5 piece with several of the 5 musicians playing multiple instruments as the song goes along. It's so impressive how they captured all the primary dynamics of the song with just two musicians using 1 very basic layer of equipment each. Excellent musicianship here.

    Your performance of the 'Rain Down' section might've been more beautiful than the actual song

    An acoustic cover of the un-coverable and that's all the applause they received?

    When I was a kid, I always thought the lyrics went "This shirt makes you look pretty ugly"

    What cracks me up is the venue. I always imagine the camera reversing, and seeing a bunch of people eating pizza with their chins on the floor. I damn well know if I went out to eat pizza and this happened I'd be sitting there with my chin on the floor.

    Hi Mike - I've been a Radiohead fan since seeing them at a small gig before they shot to fame in the 90's, and have had a lifelong obsession with them ever since. They're very dear to my heart and have featured as pretty much the soundtrack to my entire life. I've seen loads of covers of various songs of theirs over the years and no one has ever come close to doing their work justice - until now. Honestly, not only are you a talented musician and vocalist, but your arrangement and execution of this track - one of the greatest songs ever written in the modern rock era - is nothing short of staggering and breath taking. I had Goosebumps pretty much the entire way through and i can't think of a better compliment than this. Amazing.

    Wow, just WOW!!! This is one of the best, if not THE best, covers of this song I have ever heard! The craziest thing about it is...you're playing in a FUCKN PIZZERIA!!! And the dude on the bass totally killed the vocals in the third section!
