The Flaming Lips perform The WAND Live at the Troxy, London
On November 10, 2009, The Flaming Lips took the stage at the Troxy in London for a memorable live performance of 'The WAND.' This concert marked the kick-off of their UK tour, right after the release of their 2009 album 'Embryonic.' 'Embryonic' showcased the band’s foray into experimental sounds, blending elements of psychedelia and rock, which perfectly aligns with the energetic atmosphere of their live shows. The Flaming Lips are known for their unique, immersive performances, often featuring elaborate visuals and vibrant costumes, and this gig was no exception. It was a time of creative experimentation for the band, having embraced a more avant-garde approach following their mainstream success in the earlier 2000s. You can feel the buzz of excitement in the air as fans were treated to the electric sounds that have become synonymous with the band.
