Live Music

About a month ago we went to see a band called The Flaming Lips. They're from Oklahoma City and they're pretty famous nationally, so it was quite a big deal to have them playing in Tulsa. They're quite famous for their live shows and it started out with their lights on stage descending so that it looked like a space ship was landing: Then, the lead singer emerged from the top of the spaces ship in a giant bubble and walked around on top of the crowd in the giant bubble. The pictures were taken with my camera, so they're not professional quality, but if you look close, you can see that this a dude in a giant bubble.


About a week ago, we went and saw Mike Dillon play. Josh, i know i've mentioned this guy to you before. He's my favorite musician to see play live. He's a percussionist who just does insane things and is SO FUN to see play live. He's in about 8 different bands. This particular band was called Mike Dillon's Go-Go Jungle and was made of Mike on percussion (vibraphone and various other things), Go-Go Ray from KC on set, and some bass player. Here's my cheesy-3-chinned fan pic of me with Mike D. This was downtown at a bar called Exit 6-C. Johnny took all the pics in this particular segment.

Looks like you've inherited mom's tendency towards the occasional multiple chin smile...
