The Flaming Lips

In October 2015, when The Flaming Lips delivered their live performance of 'The Abandoned Hospital Ship' at The Observatory in Santa Ana, they had just released their album 'With a Little Help from My Fwends' in 2014. This album is a fascinating tribute to The Beatles' 'Sgt. Pepper's Lonely Hearts Club Band,' featuring a diverse range of artists contributing their own spin to the classic. The band's live shows around this time were marked by their signature blend of psychedelic rock and experimental elements, captivating audiences with their vibrant visuals and whimsical stage presence. Fun fact: The Flaming Lips are known for their elaborate live shows, often incorporating confetti, giant inflatable props, and unique costumes, making each performance a memorable experience for fans. This particular show perfectly encapsulates that wild spirit.
