Flaming Lips Join Hometown Halloween Parade

Got Halloween plans? Well, if not, you could head to Oklahoma City and celebrate with the purveyors of wacky, merry hijinks the Flaming Lips, for the band have agreed to front their hometown's Halloween parade, slated for Oct. 27. Initially invited by The Oklahoma Gazette for the first annual Ghouls Gone Wild parade, Wayne Coyne and crew have dove in head first, coining the March of a Thousand Flaming Skeletons title and inviting up to 1,000 fans to get involved in what the trio are calling "a symbolic procession glorifying the beauty of death and the boundless flame of love and life," Pitchfork reports. Whoa, spooky. But there's one catch: a $25 fee. Guess what it's for? Costumes, naturally. Yep, the Flaming Lips will solve your long search for the perfect Halloween disguise with a simple fee. Santas? Aliens? Who knows… Fans interested in joining the fun must be over 18 years old and should email deathmarchreservation@hellfireltd.com for further details. A band spokesperson was unavailable for comment at press time.
