Few bands embody the festival atmosphere quite like the Flaming Lips, especially effervescent frontman Wayne Coyne. For uninitiated revelers, the Flaming Lips performance this Saturday could very well feature Coyne inhabiting an enormous gerbil ball or wearing a pair of hands as big as bicycle tires or posing onstage with a group of writhing, naked women.
Earlier this year, Lips guitarist Steven Drozd was briefly hospitalized right before the band’s scheduled performance at SunFest in West Palm Beach, and its show was axed. Fingers crossed that we’ll have better luck with this makeup date at Sunset Cove. Performances at this venue always begin on the early side, so show up on time.
Will you step up to support New Times this year?
At New Times, we’re small and scrappy — and we make the most of every dollar from our supporters. Right now, we’re $18,000 away from reaching our December 31 goal of $30,000. If you’ve ever learned something new, stayed informed, or felt more connected because of New Times, now’s the time to give back.
