The World’s most beloved Oklahomans, THE FLAMING LIPS are pleased to announce their first tour dates for 2010, in support of their new double album, EMBRYONIC which begins this month in Austin, TX. Special Guests on most dates will be fellow co-conspirators, STARDEATH AND WHITE DWARFS who will delight the masses with modern psych insights from their debut album, THE BIRTH. The new design LIPS live show is bigger/brighter/louder and more impossibly Orange (like the sunshine) than ever so we look forwards to seeing you all this spring.
As previously announced, an extra special show planned for the Bonnaroo Festival Show on June 11, in Manchester, TN, will include complete set from THE LIPS and will culminate in a rare, live combined forces performance of Pink Floyd’s ’73 classic album, “THE DARK SIDE OF THE MOON,†by The LIPS with SDWD to begin at midnight. All humans are encouraged to attend this not-to-be-forgotten event. Minds will be blown, eardrums may be tested to maximum capacity, but you’ll be thankful in the morning.
With that knowledge, we are pleased to announced the physical release of “THE FLAMING LIPS, ALONG WITH STARDEATH AND WHITE DWARFS WITH HENRY ROLLINS AND PEACHES DOING ‘THE DARK SIDE OF THE MOON’†available for sale on Limited Edition vinyl pressing beginning April 17, National Record Store Day.
