Does anyone know if Damien plays this with a plectrum or just with his fingers? I think the album version is done with just fingers but would like to know howif he plays it with a plectrum live?

With his fingers? It's not plucked, so if he's using his hand at all, then he's strumming with his thumb, or perhaps with his thumb and index finger.

If I'd to guess I'd say he uses aplec for it.

damien rarely uses a plectrum, he uses his thumb for the majority of songs and for climatic bits his nails.

Hey, talking about plectrums, take a look on these wooden-made pieces
manufactured here in Brazil...

By the way, plectrums = palhetas
