If you haven’t heard of the Flaming Lips, they are one of the most underrated bands of the last decade. Their albums are like nothing you will have heard before.

Anyway, the gig last night was like nothing I have seen before. This review from last year captures the atmopshere. They really get the crowd alive with balloons in the crowd, strobe lights everywhere, people dancing in animal suits with huge halogen torches. The music was amazing too! A sweep through their back catalogue and genuine crowd pleasers.

It was one of those events when you felt part of something special for 2 hours…. So if you ever get the chance to listen to their music, I’d recommend Clouds Taste Metallic and Yoshimi Battles the Pink Robots. Or just get on their website and look at some of the videos.
