The final piece to my RM Dream Band Super-Group 2014 is... (drumroll, please)

Nigel Fucking Godrich!!!
Wait, what? Who?
Often referred to as 'The 6th member of Radiohead'... Nigel Godrich is the producer/programmer/keyboardist/guitarist extrordinaire, who has played on and produced every Radiohead album since The Bends, as well as Beck's Mutations, The Information, and Sea Change, REM's Up, and Sir Paul McCartney's Chaos And Creation In The Backyard... among others. As an instrumentalist, he has played guitars, keys, and programming in Ultraista, and he is currently touring as part of Atoms For Peace... Check him out in THIS video. He is very versatile and is responsible for that ever-so-familiar sound:

Thankyouthankyouthankyou! I couldn't have done it without all the little people. I guess I should thank almighty God and Jesus at this point, yeah?

Did you google him?

Back when I started playing drums I heard a news report that he had hit himself in the face with a drumstick. Somehow that shit lodged in my brain and decided to surface today.

He posted a video of her appearing with Pearl Jam in 2013. If that's not an admission of defeat, I don't know what is.

This is my favorite thread on RM, right now. I kinda wanted to play along when it was being set up, but I knew I'd just load my band with a bunch of relatively unknown musicians whom I love, and be the odd man out in terms of historical and cultural relevance.

I'm really enjoying watching this play out, though.
