UNICORN LOS ANGELES (AP) Flaming Lips frontman Wayne Coyne promises he
will ride a unicorn through the audience during their upcoming tour.
Given that he doesn't have a unicorn, he made one. He ordered a
life-sized plastic horse off Amazon, tricked it out with 500 really
bright LED lights, powered it with a couple of car batteries and ran
Bluetooth through it so he can power a video. Coyne says most people
probably won't be able to tell what it is but he's hoping they won't
care. The Flaming Lips tour begins Friday in Boston. SOUND:
