The Opie — Click Fresh Daily

Today is September 2, 2010. That’s right; the date is actually 90210. To celebrate this auspicious occasion, I direct your attention to the video above, which depicts The Flaming Lips playing “She Don’t Use Jelly” on the March 1, 1995 episode of “Beverly Hills 90210.” An infamous television appearance indeed.

I remember when this aired, and I remember being bummed that one of my favorite bands appeared on this train-wreck of show. A couple of seasons before this one my friends and I in college had started a 90210 drinking game.

“Everyone, drink a shot, the Flaming Lips are playing the Peach Pit.”

Yesterday was Wayne’s birthday. This is what the Lips opened with at their show in Redmond, WA on 8/21/09 (the day before my birthday last year… see what I did there?)
