I found out about them back in college a few years ago when I heard ''Yoshimi battles the pink robots.'' i've never much been into experimental rock, but i had a neighbor who took a lot of psychadelic drugs, and he introduced me to them. I got the chance to see them a few years ago, and man did they put on a show. it was weird/crazy/awesome. i just got their new album 'Embryonic,' and i think it's quite possible their best yet. its just one of those you can listen to all the way through and every song is literally an experience. and if you haven't heard the Lips, you're missing out.

I think I first heard them back in middle school, on the soundtrack from one of the Batman movies. I liked them through high school, but I guess I haven't thought about them much since. I may have to go dig up one of their CDs next time I'm home.

you should def. check out 'embryonic,' imo it's the best album of 2009 by far.

Nice I still have to check out Embryonic as well, somehow I didn't notice that it came out...the Lips are awesome! Do You Realize, Yoshimi Part I, Race for the Cure, She Don't Use Jelly...some great tracks! FYI there's a full-length documentary of them free streaming on Hulu that's well worth checking out for any fans. http://www.hulu.com/watch/91177/the-...earless-freaks

The Soft Bulletin is one of my favorite albums - I saw the lips four years ago at Vegoose® and they were fantastic.

Some pics I took that evening:

      My Swing (Ty_Webb)

      By Ty_Webb · Posted

      I had two events the past two days. Yesterday I was playing a course blind. Hit it solid. Hit 9/14 fairways, 12/18 greens, 34 putts. Many of those putts were the result of balls that were close-ish to the hole when they landed, but wound up a long way away once they'd finished rolling (backwards mainly). Then today, hit 11/13 fairways, 11/18 greens, 37 putts, and shot 80. 8 over par and it wasn't particularly pretty. My big problem today was my pitching. I was inside 100 yards of the hole and off the green on 9 occasions.  1st - drive to about 75 yards, fanned a 58 degree short and right. On the green, but a good 40 feet away and good two putt from there (so took 3) 2nd - laid up to a bunker and it's narrow past it, so had 165 in, missed it right with an 8 iron. Wet rough, chip from about 5 yards off the green and the club snagged. It got on the green, but only temporarily. Overcorrected a bit on the next one and hit it a bit firm and it rolled out to about 35 feet. Putt didn't break and it ran on a bit and I missed the one back (greens were fast and a little bumpy, which didn't help, but doesn't excuse either). (took 5 to get down from close to the green) 4th - had about 95 from the right rough, hit it on the green and two putts (3) 5th - 90 from the fairway, tugged it and it got a firm bounce, chipped on and hit what I thought was a decent chip, but it ran out down the hill and two putts from 20 feet (4) 7th - 65 from the fairway, significant upslope and hit it a bit hard, ran long left against the collar. Tried to blade a PW, but it got under a bit so didn't advance it anything like far enough. Made a good two putt from there (4) 11th - 63 from the fairway, hit a squirrelly pitch on the green and two putts (3) 12th - 75 from the semi-rough, caught it a bit clean and it wound up on the back edge. Putting down a tier and it ran 8 feet past (that was actually a really good putt and couldn't have done any better I don't think) and missed that (4) 13th - 55 from the fairway, overcorrected and hit the big ball before the small ball. Then made a stellar up and down from 25 yards short to an elevated green with a putter (3) 15th - down in three from a greenside bunker (3) That was it. The other 9 holes I hit it on the green from outside 100 yards. So on those 9 occasions, I took 32 shots to get in the hole. 3.56 average. Terrible. Reason I'm posting this in here is to see if anyone has any suggestions for how to work on my contact with pitch shots. I don't have access to a grass range. Only mats and it's easy off a mat. Partly I think my problem is I've hit it off mats so much this winter that I've lost my judgement on where the ball is versus the ground because of the leeway granted. Open to ideas. I also suspect that under pressure I stand a bit closer to it and then get steep and hit down on it and it puts me in a bad place, but I can't seem to get myself to not do that.
