So, as if The Flaming Lips couldn't get any weirder, it turns out Yoshimi Battles The Pink Robots is in the works to become a full-fledged Broadway Musical. Check out Wayne's description of the badic idea:

"There's the real world and then there's this fantastical world. This girl, the Yoshimi character, is dying of something. And these two guys are battling to come visit her in the hospital. And as one of the boyfriends envisions trying to save the girl, he enters this other dimension where Yoshimi is this Japanese warrior and the pink robots are an incarnation of her disease. It's almost like the disease has to win in order for her soul to survive. Or something like that."

Can anyone say "totally friggen awesome?"
