The hour-long radio play was commissioned by McSweeney’s and tells the story of a fictional head-shaped tumor Coyne has lodged inside his leg. Various actors and musicians contributed to the story, including Paul F. Tompkins and Grizzly Bear’s Edward Droste, while Eleanor Friedberger, Bill Callahan, Okkervil River, and The Flaming Lips have all contributed original tracks to the score.
In other “Wayne Coyne is so crazy” news, the singer recently mucked up travel at the Oklahoma City airport after he attempted to bring a grenade—or something that looked like one—through a TSA checkpoint. He also spent Halloween in the hospital, after developing a very disgusting infection in a cut on his leg. There are numerous pictures and videos of the wound and its aftermath on Coyne’s Twitter feed, for anyone who never wants to eat again.
