Steven Drozd is offically out of The Flaming Lips. Look forward to Waynes next Flaming Lips album "Dude Drugs LMAO".
>>128840317What could have possibly happened for Wayne to let go his songwriting partner of 30+ years?
Wayne Coyne is a fucking asshole. He's the embodiment of douchebaggery.
>>128840432>embodiment of douchebaggeryYou mean a douchebag?
What the fuck ever happened to Ronald Jones?
With all your powerWith all your powerWith all your powerWhat would you do?
>>128840388Ego kills. Some people are obsessive control freaks who arent happy unless they're always in control and the center of attention. 30 years working together can just compound these issues until people get fed up and cant stand each other
>>128840388Waynes seemed off since he had his midlife crisis after the Embryonic period when he started going full on star fucker and posting about doing drugs with Kesha and shit. Since that time he left his long time partner for some young chick and had a kid eith her, pushed Michael out, the only other original member, and didnt even say anything about for a long while, and now Steven, the dude that wrote most of the music. Maybe hell sober up at some point and say whoops, but I cant see that.>>128840498by all accounts dude had major issues and they assumed it was probably schizophrenia, but he got super paranoid and weird and being on the road got to him and made it worse. Sounds like the guys in the band were still in touch with his family and it was a thing of they didnt really want them talking about him and they obligied, though Im glad they released Lightning Strikes The Post Man because his parts are cool as shit.
I was playing team Music Bar Trivia with a friend late afternoon at a dive.Another team a little older than us and younger than us were playing, our team were playing, an ex-friends team were playing, and maybe a couple more teams.We were in first place at the break, and we went out for a smoke, a guy from the team of younger and older players came outside and bummed a smoke from my teammate and told us we knew our shit, and we talked about music a little.We all went back in and started playing the second round. Wayne Coyne walks into with a teenage looking hot as fuck girl and sits down at the older and younger team's table.The guy we talked to outside was Steven Drozd, his solo band was touring and his team "the rest of the flaming lips" were accompanying him on the tour for some reason. I had no clue it was him because I never cared to know what he looked like.
>>128840740>Lightning Strikes The Post Manthis cover is better than the originalhttps://youtu.be/iWUyhaplQZs
>>128844269I was actually referring to this remix, which is essentially just Ronalds guitar parts on Clouds Taste Metallic. Its pretty neat and you can hear some of the weird stuff he does thst you cant fully make out in the full mix, dude had an unique way of coloring the songs
>>128840388Wayne stopped pretending to care about music like 20 years ago and the Lips are a vehicle for him to do wacky stunts to try to get attention and young pussy
This is kind of sad to me. I'm an old fuck from Norman and grew up with these guys going all the way back to their 1st EP. They were the coolest band from Oklahoma. Knew guys who had Wayne's paintings in their houses. To see them withering away like this.
>>128848646I like to pretend they hung it up after The Terror.
When you got that spiderbite on your handI thought we would have to break up the bandTo lose your arm would surely upset your brainThe poison then could reach your heart from a veinI was glad that it didn't destroy youHow sad that would be'Cause if it destroyed youIt would destroy me
>>128840317good musician unfortunately he's a tds riddled fag who unfollowed me on twitter for mocking colbert
>>128849576God you morons are so fucking annoying
>>128848646I mean, its pretty crazy a band of weird punks from basically nowhere lasted over 40 years and still tour the world, ill take it as a win>>128849576Maybe he unfollowed for posting cringy AI slop
>>128849971AI rules, especially for shitposts, you really this far behind? as a artist secure in his own talents and place in the world im sure Drozd doesnt share your plebbit kneejerk seethe over it. hes just a cusp boomer libfag
>>128849656imagine what it must be like for people who have had to tolerate lefties with inoperable TDS for the previous 10 years. you people are totally insufferable miserable fags
>>128850872Im not american and dont give a flying fuck about the culture wars of a nation of obese retards, I just wish one side would hurry up and sperg out and kill the other so every fucking thread wouldnt be infested with it. Everyone that posted in shit like that charlie kirk thread should be gassed.
>>128845021>I was actually referring to this remixi know. i was posting a cover made by other artist, i prefer it over the flaming lips one
>>128850812back in my day if you wanted to make a retarded meme, you had to photoshop it yourself. These skills are going to be lost and never recovered
