The Flaming Lips - Live at The Abyss in Houston, TX (May 22, 1996)

Описание: The Flaming Lips perform live at The Abyss in Houston, Texas (05/22/96). This was the first of three consecutive Texas shows (links to the other two are at the bottom of the description).
Per the now-defunct psychiatricexplorations.com: "Though listed on the Flaming Lips/Richard Davies poster as May 23, this show actually took place on May 22, as noted in The Houston Press in 1996. It is likely that this date and the show in Austin on May 23 got switched."

This video has been synced with a higher quality audio source that was taped by Tracy Murillo, unfortunately the taper of the video is unknown. The superior audio source is present for every track except Louis Armstrong's "What A Wonderful World" as that song was not taped.
Per the taper "Sorry, missing Wonderful World. I was pretty drunk and had to pee. Not my favorite song anyway."

This 2nd generation tape was transferred and synced with the superior audio source by Bill Mayer in 2006. Thanks to Derek 'Drock' Dubuque for sending it to me.
I've upscaled the framerate and attempted to touch up the visuals a bit.
