Episode 32
Thursday, 20 November, 2025

Tommy McKenzie of The Flaming Lips sat down with us at Fret12 inside The Salt Shed in Chicago to talk about his path into the band, his early Oklahoma days, his favorite basses, and what life is like on the road with one of the most unpredictable live shows in the world. We get into his rig, his approach to learning the Lips catalog, and the chaos and creativity that come with touring nonstop.
