OK Go Dances With You(tube) Contest

You've seen OK Go dance. Now OK Go wants you to return the favor.

Record a video cover version of the OK Go dance from their insanely popular "A Million Ways" video and you could win a paid trip (hotel and airfare) to an OK Go headlining show, where you'll get to dance on stage with the band.

To Enter:

1) Make your video.
2) Upload it to this YouTube group.
3) Go to http://hornblowgroup.com/contest and fill out the entry form.
4) Cross your fingers.


The winning group will be chosen by OK Go, but they're easily swayed by lots of comments and high rankings, so go crazy. Email and post the pants off it.

All entries must be received by July 30th, 2006.

*Contest is open to everyone, but airfare is limited to the continental United States. If you can get yourself to the contiguous US, you're welcome to enter.

  • wow, that is mighty fun



    i predict kids to win
  • If only I had the motivation...

    Jeez, I've already done a dance. And it was a dance we made up by ourselves! We should've gotten something for that!
  • Why can't we recreate the Invincible video?

    ...I want to blow something up.

    So it's recreating the AMW dance exactly, or our own interpretation of it? You weren't too specific on that.
  • Hasn't thid been going on for like, a year? I mean recreating the dance?! Isn't there anything a little more ingenious to do you guys?! Come on!!

    And no this isn't just me being bitter cos I can't enter tongue.gif
  • I think we have to make up a dance, and since not many people did it a while back, it's a good new contest.
  • what a cute contest. Too bad my friends are teh lame.

    oh ditto, my friends won't do it. *le sigh* plus i have this fear of dancing in public. not really can't dance to save my life.

    good luck to everyone!
  • Well denise, you could always go to New Jersey with me when I'm visiting Katy and we could all dance together. biggrin.gif
  • Yeah, I'd love to do this, but

    1) So far, I only have me and Karleigh, and she'll only be at my house for 5 days this summer. I need to find 2 more people who would be willing to dance and go for the prize.

    2) Odds are, said headlining show would be while I was away in France next year. tongue.gif

    awww thanks! but yah as of july 12th i won't have life anymore. school is calling me and working my ass off for pharmacy school gets into gear.
    haha i'm more excited about reading the word headlining tour then that actual contest, is that a bad thing??
  • Katy, it doesn't say we have to have 4 people. We can CREATE a dance.
  • If it was for an original dance I would be all over this. Hell, I'd fly myself out to Chicago to have a Division Street Dancers reunion....but for A Million Ways? --Like I said, I'm too unmotivated to be a copycat.

    No, it doesn't. Where do you see that?

    Also, no way in hell I'd give up my ticket unless I absolutely had to. tongue.gif

    YES! DSD for life! But yeah, from what Mr. Mr. Mr. Jorge, Whom I Adore, Whom I Adore, Whom I Adore said, it sounds like the contest calls for a copy cat version of the original, no interpretation? I don't understand why we'd have this when people have been doing this for the longest time, but whatever.

    Aww, that would be cute.

    You know what I think would be cool? If "AMW" was an ipod commercial. Not because it would be for iPod, but because it would be cool to see it (or parts of it, anyway) with the coloured backgrounds and the guys blacked out and such. I think it would be nifty.

    Umm, anyway, back to the contest...

    if you guys do that i'll design the outfits. lol i love designing things.
  • My, my. my. To answer your grumbles:

    grumble 1) I wouldn't make up an entirely new dance, no. But some creativity is certainly called for.

    grumble 2) yes, yes you're all very ahead of the curve. people have been doing it forever. but we figured out a way to actually come up with a cool prize for it, and to open it up to many more people. is that such a bad thing? i think not. it is such a good prize? i think so. i am personally very excited for an onstage dance-off between masters and usurpers. i might even get them to rent a fog machine, i'm so excited. on top of which, anybody who already did a dance can just go ahead and enter it. it's the easiest thing ever for you ok go professionals out there.

    grumble 3) yes, it is too bad your friends are lame. you should consider an upgrade, stat.

    grumble 4) no, the simpsons aren't as good as they used to be

    grumble 5) yes, your computer crashes too much

    grumble 6) no, it's not okay to poop in the kitchen.

    grumble 7) right you are. stupid government!
  • What can we say, we're a grumbly bunch. biggrin.gif
