Basher Posted June 14, 2006 Report Share Posted June 14, 2006 Lips and Sonic Youth are in Syracuse with Ween Sept. 1st, so it makes sense that Flaming Lips play this - hopefully Ween plays moe.down! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Northern Wish Posted June 14, 2006 Report Share Posted June 14, 2006 That would work very nicely with my plans to be in Ontario starting on Sept 4th...........It would not work so well with Evolves claims that K-os is playing his only Canadian show of the year.Sean Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
