OK Go with the Redwalls

Unknown

Does anyone here actually like the Redwalls?

I have to admit, I'm a little sad they'll be touring with them.

Will OK Go be the headliners?

Actually, I do like The Redwalls. I wasn't too sure about them, but then I saw them at Lolla. I think it'll be a great concert.

As for who the headliner is, I have no idea. But something is telling me it's going to be The Redwalls.

Oh, I'm all about the Redwalls! This will be great!!

BTW, the Redwalls are the headliners.

hope you redwalls fans don't hate me.

but i have to admit, i'm somewhat happy that the redwalls are headlining. that way i can listen to ok go and then wander off during the redwalls' set.

however, it would've been nice if ok go was headlining because they'd play more songs. i hope they still do the dance.

I quite like the redwalls and am happy with the pairing.

I bet they'll do the dance. When they opened for Kaiser Chiefs they did the dance. Yeah, they'll do it. They have to. It's a staple in their show.

Damnit, I really wish I could go to one of those shows. Damn you OK Go for not playing the East Coast

M46D

i'm sure they'll add more dates. maybe not with the redwalls. but i'm sure they'll be touring a lot the next few months.

I'm extremely happy they are playing with The Redwalls!

They have a jukebox on their site. Listen. Tell me what you think.

severely dissapointed ok go isnt the headline...

SHHC

Amen to that. I will be nice about it and simply state that the Redwalls are "not a taste to my liking".

M4417

its not their sound that bothers me, honestly i probably wouldnt have payed attention to them if they were the openers, but theyre cutting down on ok go songs, and maybe even the dance. this is blasphemy

QueenofthePosers

They're not bad...is anyone else reminded of the Beatles by their stuff?

M46D

yeah, i think they completely rip the beatles off.

i think the main reason i don't care for them is because i don't like the lead singers voice at all.

Agreed...they are a Beatles rip-off. Even funnier, their myspace page has a list of "sounds like" and on that list are "The Hives"... I would like to know, at WHAT point does this whiney band sound like The Hives? At least I don't remember ever listening to the Hives and being overcome with this desire to sleep like I do with The Redwalls.

Did you guys bother to check the bio on their site? They were originally called The Pages, and they were a cover band (mostly Beatles).. hence why you are hearing the influences... this isn't something they try to keep quiet, so it's not like they are trying to pass off a Beatles-esque sound as their own original sound.

It doesn't surprise me that a lot of you don't care for them, considering how Rooney (similar sound) was ripped apart here as well.

Ive seen the redwalls a few times in concert - last when they opened for Keane along with the Zutons - they totally admit that their beatle equse sound isnt something THEY came up with! Nehoo they put on an amazing live show and really get the audience hyped - and their album is really good!!!

THey really like canada so hopefully that means thegre will be dates in canada *cough toronto* posted eventually! *le sigh* I cant to see it!

Actually, I like Rooney. Just can't get into the redwalls at all.
