btw does anyone know how to record streaming media - say from the BBC site if I wanted to have a copy of the Lips gig?

most audio apps - soundforge etc - will do it, it just needs to record whatever's coming through the soundcard.

For those that don't like the Lips, you're entitled to your opinion of course. But for the rest of us, crack a big smile and say Yeah!

it really does sound like 1972 Genesis.....

I hadn't been born then so I wouldn't know

I saw Genesis in '72 and I can assure you that the Flaming Lips don't sound anything like them - I do think TFL have a touch of the prog rock about them, but then, in my book, that is no bad thing

I didn't film those, someone on the FL forums did...I was a bit further back, about halfway between stage and mixing desk. I actually started behind the mixing desk before getting a rush of energy and barged my way in to the middle.

All the fun and games and stuff were great and Wayne is lovely and I appreciate his world view, balloons are nice and so is confetti etc etc etc.

But the songs are a bit......well.......rubbish aren't they? I just don't like the music it would seem. It's dull in parts tbh.

 

[beesonthewhatnow]

which mainstream band is currently making better music.

Not exactly mainstream I grant you, but Ojos De Brujo are the best band on the planet atm by a country mile.

Yes, play it safe, suggest a flamenco group that no one else has heard of so they can't come back at you.

they're not a flamenco group and they are pretty good. but they're not THAT good.

[belboid]

no it's not your age lol, we gave them 3 listens to different songs ....


AND THEY WERE SHITER THAN BEYOND SHITE, the singer reminded me of a really annoying Delite cover band, and the guy on the harmonica ... TWAT!

the Lips *gawd bless them* just blew me away totally, that gig will live with me for years, all I can see is balloons and a general feeling of overwhelming happiness, it was fucking great!
