Flaming Lips
Oklahoma City, Oklahoma
"These were not normal guys from normal families - you're talking about freaks"
Michele Vlasimsky, Flaming Lips manager 1986-1990
"We're just normal guys trying to make interesting music"
Wayne Coyne, head Flaming Lip, 2001
In actual fact, the truth probably lies somewhere between these two statements. To help you decide for yourself which one it's closer to, this part of the site contains a variety of biographical information about the band and the individual members and associates. To provide some additional background, there are also some interviews and random pieces of information for you to pick through.
As with any story, there's a whole lot more that isn't covered here, but it really would require a fairly lengthy book to do it properly.... so you'll just have to wait for that!! In the meantime, you might like to watch Bradley Beesley's 2000 documentary, "The Flaming Lips Have Landed."
