The Flaming Lips

Ah, The Flaming Lips were really carving out their unique niche in the ‘90s alternative scene by the time they played that cozy, intimate show at Newbury Comics in Cambridge on November 17, 1994. Just a few months prior, they released their album *Transmissions from the Satellite Heart*, which was a turning point for the band, showcasing their signature blend of psychedelic rock and offbeat lyrics. It even included the hit "She Don't Use Jelly," which helped propel them into the limelight. During that live set, they treated fans to the debut of "I Don't Like Mondays" and "Lord Can You Hear Me?"—a fun fact that explains why this performance is so special. Imagine catching those songs for the very first time, right there in a record store! Their quirky spirit and artistic formation shone through that night, creating a memorable experience not just for the audience, but for the band as they continued to stretch the boundaries of music soon thereafter. What a memorable moment in their evolving career!
