The Flaming Lips

In the vibrant landscape of their career, The Flaming Lips performed live at the iconic Red Rocks Amphitheatre on August 23, 2009, shortly after releasing their album "At War with the Mystics" in 2006. This live recording captures a pivotal moment as the band continued to explore their eclectic sound and engaging live performances. Interestingly, the show featured a rare rendition of "Bad Days," marking only the fifth time it was played since 1999, showcasing their willingness to dive deep into their catalog. Known for their psychedelic soundscapes and whimsical stage presence, the Lips have always blended music with visual artistry, which makes this concert particularly memorable, not just for the tight musicianship but for the overall aesthetic experience.
