If you've never been to a Flaming Lips concert, it can be a little difficult to fathom why diehard fans – me included – lavish Wayne Coyne and his intrepid band of musicians with such praise.
While The Flaming Lips' original intention was to perform their 2002 album, 'Yoshimi Battles The Pink Robots', as a whole for the 20th anniversary, it seems fitting their belated performance is 21 years on from this exact day 30 January, 2004, that they played at Adelaide's Big Day Out.
The sounds of Smashing Pumpkins drifted through the air outside the Moda Center. As Billy Corgan’s keening vocals of “1979” ceded to Linda Perry on “What’s Up?” it became apparent that whoever selected the music pegged the evening for what it was: a celebration of alternative ‘90s music.
