Title: A day late, but...flaming lips.
Post by: TakingBackSunday on July 22, 2010, 01:51:35 AM

the flaming lips concert was definitely the best concert I've ever been to.  Pictures!

The set was pretty much incredible.  She Don't Use Jelly, Yoshimi Pt.1, The W.A.N.D, Yeah Yeah Yeah, several from Embryonic (including I Could Be A Frog), pretty sure they played a song from Clouds Taste Metallic (forget which one), and they ended on Do You Realize.  Wish they would've played Fight Test and Race for the Prize, but it still incredible.  I got a really awesome video of Do You Realize, or at least I thought I did.  I accidentally stopped recording after 30 seconds  :'(

oh and for no good reason, from our drive over:

How far did you drive? The closest venue by me that they're gonna be at is in LA and I dunno if I'm up for going that far.

edit: Hm it looks like they just added an Oakland show

I took a bunch of pics when I saw them last year, some of which turned out very well:

I have to make them wear a fake beard, but otherwise it's not so bad.
