Return To NYC


Back in New York again after a show at the Virgin Festival in Baltimore, Maryland with Red Hot Chilli Peppers, The Who, Flaming Lips, Scissor Sisters, The Raconteurs, Gnarls Barkley, Wolfmother, Kasabian amongst others.
So back to New York where i spent a day off finally seeing Monty Pythons Spamalot, which was hilarious. I recommend it for everyone.

Before heading off to see Flaming Lips at Hammerstein Ballroom. One of the best shows ive seen in quite a while. A show full of confetti cannons, balloons, laser lights and people dressed as superheros, Santa and Aliens!!
While its been something theyve done for quite a while now, the intro to the show is still quite funny and unique!!


As an experiment the band hit upon an idea to give everyone in the audience a keyring sized laser pen and having us all point them at the stage at a specific point when singer Wayne Coyne held a mirror and reflected them all around the venue. It looked pretty good on the night but this video doesnt really do it justice unfortunately.
