Flaming Lips Invite Fans to Join March of Death
- Posted on Oct 10th 2007 5:00PM by Benjy Eisen
Audience participation with the Flaming Lips is a given; the band has included -- indeed, relied on -- fans for everything from parking garage car horn symphonies to onstage alien dance parties. The spectacle-loving, sci-fi group is now calling out for 1,000 fans to join them in their hometown of Oklahoma City for a Halloween parade on October 26. Dubbed 'The March of the Thousand Flaming Skeletons,' according to an October 9 bulletin the band posted to their MySpace friends, the exhibition will be "a symbolic procession glorifying the beauty of death and the boundless flame of love and life."
The bulletin begins: "Please help us."
Cost to join the march? $25. Having Wayne Coyne act as your personal Grim Reaper? Priceless. (And, if memories aren't enough, participants get to keep the costume, a torch and a commemorative t-shirt.) Those willing and able should send an email to: deathmarchreservation@hellfireltd.com

Hey, you Okie City punker-imitators, what the hell would you voidoids know about the beauty of death? Fuck you! Why don't the band burn themselves alive--hey now, let's see if the glory of death comes out while you're burning to death?
Ah Okies, they are so hillbilly--hey Flaming Lips, take your moms and dads trailer houses and set 'em on fire--like your white brothers and sisters did in Tulsa back in the twenties when the good white citizens of Tulsa had a parade of death--they glorified death by burning down and then mowing down the whole black neighborhood--the National Guard shot women, chillin', old folks--who gives a shit, it's all for the glory of death? By the way, why are your lips flaming?
Lester Bangs lives!
