The Flaming Lips - The W.A.N.D. Live Performance at The Warfield, SF
On December 30, 2014, The Flaming Lips delivered an electrifying performance at The Warfield in San Francisco, showcasing their unique blend of psychedelic rock. This live recording closely follows the release of their album 'The Terror,' which came out in April 2013—an album noted for its introspective themes and experimental sound. Just a year later, in 2014, the band also released 'With a Little Help from My Fwends,' a collaborative tribute album to The Beatles' 'Sgt. Pepper's Lonely Hearts Club Band.' This period marked a fascinating point in their career, as they were exploring deeper emotional territories while retaining their signature playful surrealism. Known for their extravagant live shows, the band often incorporates visuals and effects that turn each concert into a sensory adventure, and this San Francisco gig was no exception, blending heartfelt melodies with stunning artistry.
