Doesn't Drew Carey host The Price is Right?

I wouldn't be surprised to see it get pushed back to the Black Friday Record Store Day. The complete lineup hasn't been announced yet, but I feel like this is going to be pretty special.

I used to enjoy this band but I saw them earlier this year and I have to say it was easily one of the worst shows I have ever seen. Cool stage setup but the actual music being played was awful. Most of the show Wayne just kept going "Cmon Cmon," he wouldn't have to try to amp up the audience so much if his performance wasn't so terrible.

They are one of the bands playing at Riot Fest in Chicago in September....... hopefully they decide to play a 'festival' set list and stay far far away from The Terror...

It's my favourite Flaming Lips record but I realise that isn't a terribly widespread view.

i find it difficult to listen to Flaming Lips now without the idea of modern Wayne Coyne ruining the experience

I saw them in Saint Louis back in June at a 2000 seat venue. It was one of the best Lips shows i've seen in a while to be honest. The setlist was killer and focused on a lot of their "hits". Waynes voice is pretty shot to shit these days, but who ever went to a Lips show to hear Waynes beautiful voice anyway? They replaced Kliph with the drummer from Stardeath and the White Dwarfs and another percussionist whom are both rodies as well. They also added another backup musician who plays synths, acoustic guitar and pads. Steven Drozd runs the show, Wayne is the cheerleader, Michael Ivins just barely shows up at this point and the other guys just play whatever Steven tells them to play. You should go to the shitty festival.

i did go (by myself, even) and it was probably the most enjoyable lips show i've seen. after seeing many of the same songs in the handful of times i've seen them in the last ten years, it was nice to see a completely different show, and i thought they pulled off the album well. wayne started the show by saying some real nice things about ronald jones and his contributions.

i also walked away impressed with the electric wurms side project that started the show. heavy krautrock grooves.
