FLAMING LIPS STOMPBOX?!?

[Toonster]

i never got the Pink Floyd comparison other than "hey, stoners like 'em"

the lips haven't had one obscenely popular album based around the sounds of one track off of a previous album, then milked that for all its worth for the rest of their career.

they have decade-ish long phases and their influence runs so deep, you never really notice it. hence The Who

Watch your mouth I am going to a Roger Waters gig tomorrow With my dad

Lips are okay. Never loved The Who. *shrug*

Shrug indeed. Because opinions about music really, honestly don't fucking matter at all. They're opinions, not actual things.

woah, you mehed at a flaming lips live?

i would probably kill a small animal to see them live. and i'm a vegetarian.

I saw them live in 1989 in a really small bar in Iowa that no longer exists. They came on stage really late and played for maybe 45 minutes. It sounded like everything was routed through a fuzz pedal (kind of like a Superfuzz or something) and every once in a while somebody must have stomped a pedal and the fuzz got fuzzier. When I say everything was routed through the fuzz pedal I mean everything. It was very loud and they did not talk to or interact with the audience at all.

I like both the Flaming Lips and the Who.

+1 for Flaming Lips. +1 for The Who. Saw the Flaming Lips a few times back in the 90's and slept through them more than once. Oops. Love the records though. I was just mad tired. Hahahhaa.

Also - why is this pedal so f'n complicated???? Who's gonna use all of that in one pedal?

i was lucky enough to get to open for the lips for 2 nights in london and i don't understand how anyone could NOT be into their stage show... at least they're trying something different!

i've never been the biggest fan, but i dig their jams enough - live, though... a whole other experience. they put a lot of work into that stuff and the best part about them is that their entire crew and everyone involved with them is pretty much from the same town in oklahoma. they roll with their homeys and i just think that's really awesome.

that PCB design is looking NICE, btw.

The Lips opened my very first concert ever in 1993. I was 13, and the lineup was Flaming Lips / Stone Temple Pilots / Butthole Surfers

I def remember seeing them open for the Butts that summer. Not sure if STP was on the bill too when I saw them. 90's-palooza!

Super stoked for this pedal.

Also, fuck you. Lips and Butts are two of my favorite bands. I wish I coulda seen the Surfers back in their glory days. But I think 2 is too young to be on acid.

So, electronics design by Chris Taylor. I guess that's the Grizzly Bear guy. Not sure about Dylan Mackey and George Salisbury.
