Another blaze of glory

The Flaming Lips put on an amazing show at last year's Bluesfest, and I wasn't going to miss a moment this time around, though I was a little bummed to hear they wouldn't be doing their Dark Side of The Moon show, but perhaps excess daylight ruled that out.

Wayne Coyne has a little pre-show chat with the crowd.

I think it may be time for Stephen Drozd to buy a new doubleneck.
