The Flaming Lips

In May 2012, The Flaming Lips delivered a memorable performance of "Money" by Pink Floyd at the Hangout Music Festival, held in Centennial Olympic Park, Atlanta. At this time, they had recently released their album 'The Terror' just a month earlier, which marked a darker, more introspective turn in their sound, showcasing their evolution as artists. This live rendition of 'Money' not only highlights their ability to reinterpret classic tracks but also underscores their penchant for blending the psychedelic with the experimental—a signature of their career. Interestingly, The Flaming Lips are known for their visually stunning performances, often featuring elaborate props and psychedelic imagery, making this festival appearance a vibrant showcase of their unique artistry. Their commitment to pushing musical boundaries while embracing live performance culture has solidified their status in modern rock.
