The Flaming Lips Perform Two Step Live at Cat's Cradle, Chapel Hill

Venue: Cat's Cradle Location: Chapel Hill, North Carolina, United States Date: December 5, 1992

Back in December 1992, The Flaming Lips were riding high on the wave of their unique sound, having just released their album *Hit to Death in the Future Head* earlier that year. This album marked a significant period for the band, showcasing their experimental spirit right before they hit mainstream success with *The Soft Bulletin* in the late '90s. At Cat's Cradle in Chapel Hill, where they performed their cover of Throwing Muses' "Two Step," they were still a bit under the radar but gaining traction. This performance is notable—not just because it's the only recorded instance of them playing "Two Step," but also because it captures the raw, soulful energy they were known for during their live shows. Plus, playing at such an intimate venue like Cat's Cradle must have created an electric atmosphere, with fans feeling every intricate note and lyrical nuance. Isn't it fascinating how a moment like this can become a unique chapter in a band's story?
