About The Flaming Lips

The Flaming Lips are an American rock band, formed in Norman, Oklahoma in 1983. Melodically, their sound contains lush, multi-layered, psychedelic rock arrangements, but lyrically their compositions show elements of space rock, including unusual song and album titles. They are also known for their elaborate live show, which feature costumes, balloons, puppets, video projections, complex stage light configurations, giant hands, large amounts of confetti and frontman Wayne Coyne s signature man-size plastic bubble, in which he traverses the audience.

Pondamonium is presented by the Madison Mallards in collaboration with Last Coast Producing and Majestic Live. All media requests and questions should be directed to Conor Caloia at the Madison Mallards.
