Flaming Lips put on concert with fans inside "space bubbles" to prevent spread of COVID-19
The band put on two shows where attendees — and musicians — stood inside "space bubbles" to prevent the spread of COVID-19. But when the COVID-19 pandemic hit, he thought of another use for the space bubbles, drawing a cartoon of himself — and his fans — protected by bubbles at a concert.

The first floor of the venue was filled with around 300 fans in enclosed in plastic bubble barriers. "I'm in my space bubble and [the fans] were excited," Coyne said about the band's inventive performance.
