bONES Posted April 5, 2006 Report Share Posted April 5, 2006 looks good but short Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
deranger Posted April 5, 2006 Report Share Posted April 5, 2006 yes short but holy fuck was it good. They kicked so much ass, I had a smile ear to ear the whole show. It can take mountains to move a TO audience but the Lips had everyone singing along and moving. So much energy and such good vibes. I cannot wait until they come back, and the new songs were amazing.

bouche Posted April 5, 2006 Report Share Posted April 5, 2006 how short is short? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
deranger Posted April 5, 2006 Report Share Posted April 5, 2006 On around 11:10pm, show over at 12:30 including 2 encores, so only bout an hour and 20 minutes. Guess that's not so short but it felt like it was too short. the cow jam was awesome. Wayne played this tweaked kids keyboard that some dude had given him that made farm animal sounds.

Jaimoe Posted April 5, 2006 Report Share Posted April 5, 2006 Is it true that the Lips are now a three-piece? The Star alluded to that in yesterday's paper. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SmoothedShredder Posted April 5, 2006 Report Share Posted April 5, 2006 No, still a four piece, if you don't include the "Christian Santas'" and the "Alien Scientologists", who can number in the tens! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
gentlemonkey Posted April 5, 2006 Report Share Posted April 5, 2006 ... Midway through my first spin of 'At war with the mystics'.. enjoying it so far. Definitley a different vibe than Yoshimi or SoftBulletin. Did anyone catch Wolfmother opening? Of the tracks I've heard, they sound great..

TimmyB Posted April 5, 2006 Author Report Share Posted April 5, 2006 Is it true that the Lips are now a three-piece? The Star alluded to that in yesterday's paper.The Flaming Lips are a three piece in the studio with Wayne Coyne, Michael Ivins and Steven Drozd.Though while on stage Drozd can not drum while also performing guitar and keyboards at the same time so in 2002 when the Flaming Lips became the backing band for Beck they got a Flaming Lip roadie Kliph Surlock to take over on drums. Kliph has been their drummer ever since, though Drozd still does the drum parts in the studio.And the gig was one hour and twenty-three minutes long, short to us hippies, but definitely sweet.If given the option would take three minutes of the Flaming Lips over three hours of most bands currently touring the globe.Tim Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
