they put on the flaming lips as a free show at my school, and it attracted all of the weirdos from the entire state. people sometimes dress up for flaming lips shows but id say most of the people looked like they wore that stuff everyday. we were standing about 30 feet from the stage next to a guy dressed up in a penguin suit. the guy was drunk and stoned out of his mind. he had a bag of confetti he would throw in people's faces who walked by and some silly string. once the silly string can was spent he just dropped it on the ground.
my brother picked it up and it still had pressure but no string goo left. people kept pushing by us to get closer even though it was already packed, and my brother would spray the back of thier heads. this one punk looking guy who had a foot high red mohawk walked pushed right in front of me so i grabbed my friends hand and made him touch the mohawk guys butt. immediately (i don't know how he could tell there were so many people around) he looked straight at my friend and said "did you just touch my ass?"
my friend just stammered for a second while my brother sprayed the mohawk guy in the back of the head. so he looks at my brother and sees the can and he's like "what the fuck did you just spray on me". i was like, damnit why did julian (my brother) do that and julian was like, "hey no big deal, the can has no more silly string in it, its just air". so the guy whips out a lighter and said, "then lets see if its flammable". my brother was like, "what? no, here you spray it" and the guy was like "no, you spray it, im holding the lighter". so my brother sprayed the can at the flame but thankfully it didn't light, because there was like a million people around. the guy just walked away at that point, and my brother quickly dropped the can.
