   They play it all the time now. You can see tons of recent concerts on YouTube and most of them have that song. He went through a brief period where he hated the song and refused to play it and people have been claiming ever since "Radiohead won't play Creep" even though they do now. Here's one from 2018 I randomly found by searching "Radiohead Creep live"

   He only really dismisses Creep and High and Dry. And he’s even come around on Creep more the past couple decades even.

   They played Let Down at every concert last tour (their most recently popularized song). Doesn’t seem to hate on it as well, but at least it’s not Creep

   Because…I helped pay for it, dumbass. Look at it this way; when you see a busker, you can toss them some cash and ask for a request. For Thom, everyone who pays for his ticket is asking for the music they want based on the taste of the fandom. One or two well known songs, a handful of lesser known stuff, and things that are personal to him. It’s literally something every musician who tours does, it’s how they build their set list. And most of the time, they’re silent on it because they know they’re playing music for the people there. Thom has always, I repeat, ALWAYS, disliked the notion that, if a song is popular, people will want to hear him play it. He’s been doing it since Creep. And after thirty years, it comes off as condescending and rude. Whether he likes it or not, fans’ money and influence bought him the life he can retire in if he chose. The least he can do is not act like we’re fucking nuisances to tolerate while simultaneously taking our money.

   I know Radiohead and Creep is a banger and great song along song and I would be thrilled to hear them play it. If a band is sick of it they can always do an alternative version as well.
