iPod Shuffle Ad!!!
So I was on the metro today, heading to class, and we stopped at Villiers, and they'd put up huge ads for the new iPod shuffle in the station. They're basically pictures of random people's collars, belts, pockets, etc. with the new iPod shuffle clipped on. (Apparently the new tagline is "Put some music on.")
Anyway, I didn't pay much attention until the train was pulling out of the station, and we zoomed by an ad featuring a guy wearing a sweatshirt with three pins (badges for you Brits) pinned on- and one of them was an OK Go pin.
And we're talking an old school OK Go pin. It was the pansies background with the old school logo.
So basically my jaw dropped and I almost started shouting, except the French people would have stared at me. So I promise to go back sometime next week and take a picture, haha.
In the meantime, the TV ad is here- the shirt I'm talking about is the fifth in the ad I think, but unfortunately, they changed the OK Go pin to some other band instead.
Maybe only the French are special.

yeah on the website it refers to this as the original logo. that being said, i think we'd all agree that the "get over it" era logo is ...errr..."older school" than the more common "oh no" logo.
haha, sorry if that sounded incredibly retarded. ochem's turned my brain to mush. whee!
You know I was just watching it, and one of the pins is a guy's face - it is REALLY small and I'm not sure, but I think it's Damian.
It's not. I think it might be Bowie? I'm not 100% sure on that, but I'm pretty sure it's not Damian. The shirt in the ad has two out of three of the same buttons as in the ad I saw.
Okay, well, it's not waaaaaaaaaaaay old school. You're right, the other logo is older. I was just surprised that they didn't use the most recent logo and decided to go with the one from their first record.
Sorry that the flash is like, right over the button/badge; this is actually on the glass that separates the quai from the track for line 14 in the Chatelet station (as opposed to being a poster ad hung on the wall), hence the reflection. I would have taken a better pic, but I was kind of afraid of all the French people staring at me with my camera.

It's official, ok go are everywhere!!this is so cool!
I think that it's beck, right?
Yeah, I think it's Beck. I thought it was Bowie at first, haha, until I saw it up close.
Maybe you all thought it was Bowie because of the paint on the face like the Aladdin Sane cover.
Ugh. I JUST bought an iPod last week!!! I'll totally kick myself if they put out an OK Go special edition next, although I can't really imagine them doing that because that would put them on a plane with U2, and that just doesn't sit right in my head.
