Flaming Lips – See the Leaves (Live on David Letterman)

What, no crazy Flaming Lips stage antics? No giant hands? No confetti? No LED screen? Megaphone? Pork and beans? Mumbletypeg? Not even hand puppets?

That said, the low angle shot of Wayne Coyne banging the cymbal was inspired. It even made me think he had a comically oversized cymbal on stage for a second. Then again, I was disappointed when I realized it wasn’t comically oversized and I had been duped by camera trickery. Just like that time with that guy. You know the one.
