After weeks of anticipation, a 9 hour drive, and a ridiculous number of security checks, we were amply rewarded by one hell of a show. The Flaming Lips New Year's Eve Freakout was an amalgamation of trippy tunes, trippier light shows, tons of confetti, and balloons, lots of balloons...
Wayne Coyne and the Flaming Lips have been pushing the acid rock/alt rock envelope since 1983, when he allegedly stole several instruments from a local OK City church and convinced his brother to start a band.
The piece de resistance began as the last seconds of 2009 ticked away... confetti flooded the arena, balloons covered the crowd, and Pink Floyd's Dark Side of the Moon was played in its entirety...
Big smiles, Very Big Smiles...
