If you’re in the Portland area today, Wed., Sept. 23, you might have a chance to become a star.
The Flaming Lips are shooting a new music video there today for “Watching the Planets” off of Embryonic. From 10 a.m. to 10 p.m., people are welcome to just show up at the top of Mount Tabor by the basketball courts.
Now there is a slight catch. The Lips want naked bicyclists for this video. So if you’re a bit modest, stay at home.
They do ask you show up in clothes to the site.
Wayne describes the scene, saying that the idea came from the musical, “Hair”: “You know how it’s a bunch of freaked out naked people climbing some mountain with blood and fire and finding some new civilization there– so I thought of Portland, right?”
Meanwhile, for those not able to see the Lips in Portland, enjoy this new video here:
