Flaming Lips Freakout Again

The New Year’s Freakout 5 once again takes place in the band’s hometown of Oklahoma City. After previously being held at the Cox Convention Center, the party has been moved to Coca Cola Bricktown Events Center. This time around Wayne Coyne and the gang will party for two nights in a row Dec. 31 and Jan. 1. Yoko Ono Plastic Ono Band will be there for both gigs.

Already been to plenty of Flaming Lips shows? Well, the band promises that fans can expect the New Years shows to have “more confetti, more balloons, massive volume, and maximum weirdness.”

Exclusive merch will be sold at the Freakout 5 shows along with gummy fetuses (containing a USB drive featuring three new songs) gummy skulls (will include a USB drive featuring a live concert recording of The Soft Bulletin), and The Strobo Trip light illusion toy (which includes a USB drive with three exclusive recordings including the six-hour song “Found A Star On The Ground”). 

Tickets are on sale now, priced at $100 per night. A special package is available for $150 for both nights.
