Free Music Notes for U.F.O's At The Zoo - The Legendary Concert In Oklahoma CityFree Music Review: U.F.O.s At the Zoo Hit: 5 StarsI recieved this DVD for my birthday and I was completely blown away.
I have seen the Flaming Lips in concert, but this was WAY better.
I loved how they mixed interviews and backstage footage with live footage.
How could I have missed this amazing concert?
I HIGHLY HIGHLY HIGHLY recommend this DVD to any FLips fan, or just anyone who wants to see the greatest concert on the planet made possible by the greatest band on the planet.
Free Music Review: Does Not Do Them Justice Hit: 3 StarsHaving seen the Flaming Lips live in London this was a real disappointment. This performance has none of the stunning visual effects that help make their indoor concerts so compelling, and the subtle beauty that is at the core of their music comes across as over-hyped bombast as Wayne feeds the audience the same lines for the zillionth time. With some true investment of time and funds this could have been so much more. The inter-musical interludes (shots of the zoo) (lame interviews with fans) distract and detract from the whole. Maybe you had to be there?! Instead of buying this listen to Soft Bulletin or Yoshimi again; infinitely more fulfilling.
Free Music Review: A U.F.O. at the Zoo... Really!! With aliens and everything... Hit: 4 StarsLiving in the northeast, buying this DVD was my only chance to see the Lips live since I first borrowed Yoshimi from my local library and became a fan. Heavy on Soft Bulletin through Mystics, She Don't Use Jelly and a few other early songs are also present. The audio and video quality are both terrific. There's a fair amount of audience and "Making of..." interviews, which are actually kind of interesting. What I really enoyed most, however, was seeing and hearing how the band delivers its sonic signature live. The only downer - not being at the Zoo in the first place. If you love music, buy this disk.
Free Music Review: flaming lips are great, but... Hit: 5 StarsAmazon's listing says that this comes with a bonus CD. Is that incorrect? My copy did not have a CD with it, and I don't see any mention of a CD in any of the reviews here. If anyone can answer this I will appreciate it.
Free Music Review: Why Didn't I Go? Hit: 5 StarsWhat an idiot! I live in OKC and did not go to this show. In fact I went to school with Wayne and his brother Mark. Great concert video. After watching I made sure I got tickets to their New Year's Eve show. The Lips are a true asset to our city! Thanks guys!
