The Flaming Lips

The Flaming Lips are like a lasanga,  deep rich textures layered for maximum effectiveness.    a self proclaimed acid punk band formed in Oklahoma in 1983, The Flaming Lips have reinvented themselves time and time again.  Pushing the bounderies between comic acid, visuals, and hard grinding rock.
    Although the band has only had one hit "she dont use jelly" in 1993 they have a very large and devout following.  Touted as one of the best and most innovative live shows still touring today, The Flaming Lips seem to be the only band that can top their shenanigans. voted by Q magazine as being "one of the 5- bands you must see before you die.


    in their return to oklahoma onnew years eve they decided to scramble peoples frontal lobes with their shear awesomeness .   They had the concert at the city zoo, to open the show the band was lowered out onto stage by a crane, while riding a gigantic homemade ufo.   they where then lowered out of the bottom while the lead singer was rolling out of the top in a giant person sized balloon.   He then played the first song while walking over everyone in his giant bubble.  
      Go out and buy all of their cd's, learn how to make grilled cheese, then follow them across the country.......its simple
