In the strangest of places

Went to see the Flaming Lips tonight at the Greek. They are SO INCREDIBLY AWESOME! It was really great to get out and do something at night for once, too. A concert, what a concept. I hadn't been to a concert since seeing Dark Star Orchestra on my due date, nearly 17 months ago! Well, and there was Led Kalapana a few days after that, but that was so tiny and intimate it was hardly a concert at all, more like hanging out in a bar with him.

I don't want to write much about the show--I want to leave some surprises in case you get to see them soon--but I will include here the article that I read in Esquire magazine in 2003 that inspired me to pick up a couple of their albums.
