Top 10 Music-Festival Moments
It's festival season! The second week in June marks the kickoff of a series of big-name music festivals, including the CMA Music Festival, the Isle of Wight Rock Festival and Bonnaroo. Here are 10 of the most famous — and infamous — moments in music-festival history.
Flaming Lips at SXSW — 2006
The Flaming Lips don't play shows — they put on spectacles. The alt-rockers embrace eccentricity in their live performances: they've rolled around in giant spheres, constructed a giant UFO, even dressed concertgoers up in animal costumes and Santa hats and had them dance around onstage. Psychedelic! Their secret show during Austin's 2006 SXSW (South by Southwest) was no less groovy. The Lips covered Queen's "Bohemian Rhapsody," duetted with female rapper Peaches and let two fans get engaged onstage. Well, marriage is supposed to be a trip, right?
