I am still speechless... seen them a few times before but last night at the Tramshed was off the scale totally. They brought everything from their larger shows into a tiny venue. Confetti storms, neon unicorns, light show, giant balloons and oh the music was amazing!

My kind of concert will look out for them in future.
Crowd surfing in that balloon is the way to go.
He's done that for years and I didn't expect the full show in a tiny venue but they did it.
You'd love it mate. There was a couple standing next to me who had never seen them before and went on a recommendation of a friend who couldn't go to the gig. Their faces had the biggest smiles and their eyes were wide in amazement.
Michael Ivins the bass player even wore a classic welsh football jersey, Stephen Droizd wore a f*cking multi-coloured cape :)

Except heavy metal bands mostly sing about total nonsense, look ridiculous and then try to be serious about it.
The Lips are just a fun band who don't take their image seriously unlike tossers like Kiss.
Don't take their image serious? you just described them performing an LGBT book of revelation, Ebs. I think you may mean their image is that of a bunch of chaps who don't take their image serious. But from your description they definitely take their image serious.
And that's fine. Each to their own. If that's your thing. Personally, as soon as it started spitting confetti, way before it became a storm and when the neon unicorn was just a distant ship smoke on the horizon, I would have had to wipe the froth of my top lip with my sleeve, put down my pint and announced "That's me. I'm out". I would then have had to do something that made me feel less gay like go to the toilets and kneel down in front of a gloryhole with my mouth open.
Good luck, Mr Cooper

It's more of an acid drug trip experience certainly not a gay one, even though it is colourful
And no they don't take their image seriously, they are just a bunch of regular people wearing what they would onstage as they would off it.
I think you are a little bit obsessed with the gay thing. Are you trying to tell us something?

No, not 'us'...I'm trying to tell you something. You know when you were hallucinating and you saw the guy in the workman's helmet?...and the policeman?...and the indian?...and the guy with the big moustache and hairy chest? Yeah, you weren't hallucinating. And that bodybuilder who kept grinding on you?...he didn't mistake you for his girlfriend in a fog of LSD...he claimed you as his bitch.
Anyway I haven't got much time to talk to you. I have to pop up my dealers to get half a dozen purple ohms and then I'm on to the train to the Lady Gaga concert. And to quote Edmund Blackadder "If I wanted to talk to a vegetable I'd have bought one at the market"
Good luck, Mr Cooper

A tiny bit gay, though. Not that there's anything right with that, of course.
I post a sensible thread about an incredible show and you can’t hekp yourself by spoiling and detailing it. It’s people like you who are driving posters away with your absolute nonsense and now it seems homophobic comments.
Here’s a tip. Switch off your internet just for a day!!
