9. YOSHIMI BATTLES THE PINK ROBOTS: THE MUSICAL: 2002's Yoshimi Battles The Pink Robots was perhaps The Flaming Lips' first commercial hit. It was also the first (and only, so far) album they're turning into a musical. It was originally planned to be produced with screenwriter Aaron Sorkin, but he's reportedly since dropped off the bill. The show is scheduled to see the light of day this winter in California at La Jolla Playhouse.
