The Flaming Lips Announce Secret Show

Hopefully if you’re a Flaming Lips fan you will be in or near LA later this week, because in honor of their new studio album release Embryonic, they will be playing a MySpace Music Secret Show in Hollywood, CA, on Thursday, October 15 for their MySpace friends and fans! That’s right, see one of the craziest bands live at the intimate Nike Theater.

Tickets for the event will be made available on a first-come, first-served basis at The Nike Theater in Hollywood, CA, on October 15 from Noon until Midnight. Additional tickets will be available at Amoeba records with purchase of the Embryonic CD on street date, October 13. Sadly, ticket holders are not guaranteed seating so make sure you show up to the event early! Doors open at 6:30 p.m. and will close at capacity. I’m guessing you should be there by noon at the latest. Don’t worry, I’m sure you’ll meet plenty of fun people while waiting in line.

Now time for the details about their album:

Embryonic, the band’s 12th full-length double-album set to be released on October 13, marks their first full studio set in three years following their Grammy Award-winning At War with the Mystics. Embryonic was recorded in Fredonia, NY and Oklahoma City, OK, with studio whiz and general co-conspirator Dave Fridmann and just may be their most sonically adventurous and compositionally vernal form of musical expression ever.

Enough with that, here’s how to see them live:
