bring ceiling christmas communal dvd experience falls flaming giant intense lips playing pot rock smoke sound sure taking theaters thinking unexpected whatever
We could take the movie around as well, and not just be playing as the Flaming Lips as a rock band. I'm thinking of taking it to theaters and having it be an experience where we bring in giant sound systems, smoke machines, Christmas lights, s--- falls on you from the ceiling and you can smoke pot and do whatever you want. There's something about the communal experience while something intense and unexpected is happening. I'm sure it will come out on DVD and there'll be a soundtrack, but that isn't the real experience.
alone bathroom cleaned literally maybe playing remember seven sit six stand thinking toilets
I remember playing CBGB and thinking that no one had cleaned the toilets in there for at least six or seven years. Now maybe the women's bathroom is different but in the men's bathroom, you literally wouldn't want to stand there, let alone sit there. I mean, it's horrible.
thinking smell ipods
I think the more music becomes something you could simply download and have on your iPod, I think to a lot of people that is plenty, but to some people, they still want these artifacts that are touchable, and you can smell them, and look at them, and hold them and just have other dimensions of experience with this music.
thinking animal people
I think I'm really lucky that the things I'm able to love - people, animals - it's like the more you put yourself into it, the more you get out of it.
thinking lucky lucky-you
I think if you're lucky, you start to make music and it gets things out.
thinking people want
I think that most of the people I'm dealing with, they're a lot like me. So I'm not pushing people that don't want to do something; most of the people have a billion things going on, and they love it.
thinking animal people
I think that's what centers me the most - all my people, all my animals.
art thinking rocks
I think some of the musicians are more like punk rock musicians. It's like an art as opposed to being a musician. It's definitely more radical psychedelic bands, more than anything.
thinking mind isolation
I want to know what you're thinking, you want to know what I'm thinking. But we're alone. In our own minds. We're trapped in this sort of isolation.
art hero thinking
The 'cool' record store. It is where you can talk to people who are like you. They look like you, think like you and, most tellingly like the same music as you - the only comparable experience these days would probably be an art museum - an actual place where you can stand and simply be surrounded by your heroes.
mistake thinking making-mistakes
We love it when we make mistakes that are better than something you could think up.
thinking madness good-things
I think it's probably a good thing to be considered stable, but with a capacity for madness.
caring thinking people
I stopped caring so much about what people might think if I sung about love and humanity.
thinking hands people
I want to be able to shoot laser beams out of my hands at people. That's the kind of stuff that you think all bands should do, but they don't, and I can't understand why most bands don't want to do it.
