Talking about freaking out the normal man (but not actually doing it) vs. freaking out themselves vs. freaking useless.

Of the three, the Flaming Lips by a long shot.

Of the three, the only ones that ever really impressed were the Butthole Surfers...and even they have long since stopped mattering. Are the Dead Milkmen still a going concern? The last thing of thiers I remember was "Methodist Colouring Book," which was pretty funny. See, that's the thing....they were simply nyuck nyuck rock with nothing else going for them, whereas the Buttholes could be funny....in a very scary way....and could make genuinely innovative, often disturbing, strange, compelling and "rockin'" music.

The Flaming Lips? None for me, thanks.
