I only just noticed he's in the video when the band are in the green room, he looks like he's hitting keys but I can't hear him doing anything. Is there a live performance where you can here it?
Live, I think he plays back the moaning/droning Chino voice during "If first we are, ever to fall off of the Earth" but I think that's something that they started doing quite a while after they began playing it. They did it on Carson or whatever the show was. On record, he doesn't seem to have any actual input but I could totally be wrong.
Thanks man, I'll check that out now. I always wondered were that drone came from, I thought chino used some sort of echo effect or something.
Hesperian Death-Horse! is completely right
Yeah I know man, that was really bothering me XD thanks a lot

You're welcome! haha
I started listening really closely to the album version and I didn't really hear anything that could be him except I was hearing a sustained note that I thought could be him but I think it was just an artifact from the ringing chords of the guitar. I think I was just looking too hard for something that wasn't there.

true
On the album version I'm guessing he dont do shit. It could have just been done when editing and mixing, right?
i don't recall him doing anything live. actually for the majority of the show he was just standing off to the side of the stage drinking and fucking around on his phone.
He does some draining notes in the background during the verses on the studio version I think. but live I dont know
