Flaming Sabbatical

We’re getting pretty excited about tomorrow night’s performance of the Flaming Lips at the Pageant. Considering their reputation for quasi-evangelistic, almost religious experience induced by their performances, we’re not surprised others are getting excited too. So in anticipation of their sermon we thought it’d be nice to share this performance in 2003 covering the Black Sabbath’s “War Pigs” in duet with Cat Power.
Although the performance is already sold out, we won’t be surprised when scalpers show up outside the Tivoli, where we suspect ticket prices will rise exponentially approaching the start of the show. We were surprised that changes to Missouri state law effecting scalping earlier this last month actually don’t effect entertainment scalping, which will remain legal and (for those of us who couldn’t get tickets) probably desirable. Oh lord yes!
