The Flaming Lips

Circa September 1994, The Flaming Lips were riding the wave of their album "Transmissions from the Satellite Heart," released earlier that year. This was a pivotal moment for the band, as the album showcased their craft while steering the group into a new realm of experimental rock. During this live performance at the Sooner Theatre, the Lips were still basking in the early success of the hit single "She Don’t Use Jelly," which helped them gain considerable traction in the alternative scene. Interestingly, this live recording captures a unique juncture in their journey, where their energetic and at times surreal live show reflects the band’s evolving sound—a mix of both quirky charm and musical experimentation. Fans often talk about the band's ability to engage their audience, and judging by the footage, their charisma didn’t just shine through the studio recordings; it illuminated the stage as well.
