I'll be perfectly honest and say I've been pretty unfamiliar with The Lips, and completely clueless about Ween, up until tonight. We didn't even stay for all of Flaming Lips which made me a bit unhappy, but the girl I was with insisted we bail out early.
Anywho, coming from a non-fan standpoint I will say that I absolutely loved both acts. Ween were ridiculous (his voice was out of this fucking world), and Flaming Lips (I saw about 5 songs) were completely fantastic as well. The Lips act was also pretty damn funny as well.
Wonderful evening all around. The "Rather Ripped" stuff, especially 'Pink Steam', even sounded great. I would have easily traded 'Reena' and 'Rapture?' for 'Shaking Hell' and 'Silver Rocket' however.
