“ That show was one of the high marks of that series of performances,” Wayne wrote in the DVD linear notes. As the name suggests, this was the show that debuted a giant stage prop allowing the band to “land” on stage from a UFO – giving their own twist to the classic P-Funk and ELO entrance.
NEIL AND THE FLAMING LIPS MP3 DOWNLOAD
Though they only played the Zoo once before, it was a legendary September 2006 show recorded and released as their live DVD/ MP3 download album UFOs at the Zoo. What’s more, this would be a triumphant return to the venue for the Lips. #ICYMI PHOTO Wayne Coyne last week at Phish's OKC Zoo show …same venue Wayne saw Grateful Dead and Zappa in early '80s What better send-off could there be than a free show by hometown heroes The Flaming Lips? This was the ideal way for Innervisionsinc to thank all the fans who saw their concerts at the Zoo over the years – including Wayne Coyne who, among other shows, saw Phish there just a week before. This would be the last ever Zoo show under Innervisionsinc (following a heated battle for control). The OKC Zoo officially revealed on September 2nd “ that we will offer you the public a free show with Oklahomas own “THE FLAMING LIPS” That is us thanking you for your years of patronage at the Zooamp under our management and it is our way of giving back to you the Oklahomans who have supported us for so many years.”
Wayne confirmed the plan at Colbchella, “ We try to do this thing in Oklahoma – we only try to do one thing a year, and so, this year, we’re doing a free show at the zoo,” he told QRogMag, “ We had been doing New Year’s Eve shows – we’re not doing that this year.” You think anyone would show up for that?” Allegedly this too was never true, though the same source updated three weeks later that an October show was being planned, and quoted Wayne Coyne on the matter: On August 1st claimed two unidentified members of the Lips were in talks to play OKC’s adult addictions Referral Center’s annual Family Recovery Fair in the early Fall at Military Park. Rumors spread throughout the summer of 2012 that the band were planning a free local show to make-up for no 2012-2013 New Years Eve Freakout. Fans were therefore understandably disappointed when Lips multi-instrumentalist Derek Brown alerted The Future Heart that the band was “ definitely not doing the parade…The Tulsa World thing was in error” – though this news was overshadowed by something bigger and better in the works. The group had led the March of 1000 Flaming Skeletons from 2007-2010, leaving participants to wonder if their absence in 2011 was just a one year scheduling conflict or a departure from the tradition altogether. In July 2012 Tulsa World announced The Flaming Lips would return to OKC’s annual Halloween parade – a rumor that was never true.
