* But cans of San Miguel should NEVER cost £3.90 (and NEVER run out before the end of the gig).
* Wayne Coyne is brilliant at connecting with his venue; the first thing he did was reference Syd Barrett, who apparently played a legendary Pink Floyd gig here in 1967.
* Only Wayne could constantly call everyone motherf**kers and make it feel like a compliment.
* There were brilliant giant balloons everywhere; like watching the gig through a giant Galileo Thermometer.
* The Soft Bulletin is better as a brilliant album than a live show.
* Do You Realize? is the best song of all time.
* Wayne's mic-cam is a fantastic device.
* The semi-circular big-screen at the back of the stage featured images including topless ladies and lots of animal teeth.
* The lasers throughout the show made everyone want to photograph them.
* Wayne's space bubble made everyone smile. See my short video of it here.
* I missed Yoshimi and her Pink Robots.
* I missed Tangerine.
* Most of the crowd looked like me but with less hair.
* This was the sixth time I've seen The Flaming Lips; the other five were Glastonbury, T in the Park in Scotland, Camp Bestival in Dorset, Hammersmith Apollo and the Troxy in London. They're my favourite band.
* The second time I saw them I danced on stage dressed as a cloud.
