Advertising Agencies Come To You And They

I Call It "being Interrupted By Success." We Had Done The Soft Bulletin, Which Came Out In 1999, And We Knew We That Were Gonna Make Another Record Before Too Long. But In Between This, We Were Still In This Mode Of Kind Of Just - Not Re-creating What We Could Be, But Kind Of Doing Different Things. For The Longest Time In The Flaming Lips We Were Like, "make A Record, Go On Tour. Come Back, Make Another Record," And You Know, I Think, Frankly, We Were Kind Of Like, "there's More To Life Than Just Recording Records And Going On Tour."

Advertising Agencies Come To You And They Are Great Fans, They Are Great Creative People Themselves, But They Ask You To Do Something, And You Say, "well, We Will, We'll Create Something Together." And It Is Work. It's Like You're Doing Something And They're Saying, "change This" And "change That." It's Not Hard, Horrible Work, But Creatively It's Not Just Freedom.
