The Flaming Lips - Race For The Prize Live at Sasquatch! Music Festival

Venue: The Gorge Amphitheatre Location: George, Washington, United States Date: May 26, 2008

On May 26, 2008, The Flaming Lips delivered a stellar live performance of "Race For The Prize" at the Sasquatch! Music Festival, hosted at the scenic Gorge Amphitheatre in George, Washington. This performance came on the heels of their 2006 album "At War with the Mystics," which showcased the band's signature blend of psychedelic rock and experimental sound. Interestingly, this live recording captures the band at a time when they were beginning to embrace more theatrical elements in their shows, an evolution that adds dynamism to their already avant-garde approach. During this period, The Flaming Lips were not just pushing musical boundaries, but also creating an immersive experience for their audience, symbolizing their growth as one of the most imaginative acts in alternative music.
