Flaming Lips Added to Pitchfork Music Festival

By Andrew J.R.

I'm sure that most people already knew about this, but I was very happy to just hear the news earlier today. Ecstatic even. Somehow this will be my first year going to Pitchfork. Every year there is one band that I'm pleasantly surprised to see on the line-up, and I've already made plans to be out of town by the time it's announced. I'm still kicking myself for missing Os Mutantes a few years ago, but I won't let it happen this time. While this probably should not merit a blog posting, I felt it had to be pointed out.

By the way, if you haven't checked out the video of The Flamings Lip with Stardeath and the White Dwarfs doing Madonna's "Borderline," you're missing out... try listening with headphones on.
