This past Thursday, July 28, Weezer and the Flaming Lips joined forces at the PNC Banks Art Center in New Jersey for a one-of-a-kind show that featured both bands sharing the stage. The show opened with Rivers Cuomo and Wayne Coyne crowd surfing inside giant bubbles (see left), a trademark of Flaming Lips shows, while both bands jammed on Black Sabbath's "Sweet Leaf."
The band then traded off the spotlight, each playing a couple of songs then switching off. The show ended with both bands playing “She Don’t Use Jelly” by the Flaming Lips and “Undone – The Sweater Song" by Weezer.
You can check out both fan-filmed and Wayne Coyne-filmed footage of "She Don't Use Jelly" below.
