dunno if this has been mentioned before (mainly bc i'm too lazy to go check the past pages), but OK Go was mentioned on Pink is the New Blog! YAY!!
click linky! (feb12th entry) The boys of OK GO, on the other hand, looked great. Obvs they wore these outfits to bring attention to their new music video (which I don't believe has been released yet) which, apparently, will have the guys blending in with the background wallpaper (a la the gag in the movie Garden State). Incidentally, the OK GO guys won the Grammy Award for Best Short Form Music Video for their video Here It Goes Again (you know, the one with the treadmills).
I think he's being misquoted. He said "thanks...for NOT being an asshole."
One could guess all day long what inspired him to say that. My guess is that he was reflecting on they first invited Andy to join the band - he was a stranger who tried out, not a known friend or quantity. Damian has said many other times how extraordinarily well Andy fits in, so I think this is more of the same. It just is easy to misinterpret (based on the linguistic concept that a negative actually plants the idea it is trying to refute...so he said "NOT...an asshole" and what the mind registers is "asshole").
Actually, he said "thanks for not being a COMPLETE asshole", which would imply that Andy was being somewhat LIKE an asshole. =X
Bakersfield Fan! Will your sweet connection at WireImage hook me up with a picture or two, so I have a souvenir to show my grandkids? "Gather round, my little peanuts, while crusty, scabby old Granny tells you the story about the treadmills and the paisley and the Grammy ONE MORE FUCKING TIME."

I know I've said this before, but, CONGRATU-FREAKIN-LATIONS!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! I absolutely LOOOOOOOOVED your dress! How were the after parties?!?!?!?
I love that Dan spoke! He sounded shocked and excited! Now all we need is to hear from Andy
There used to be a video on youtube which was an interview with JUST Andy and Dan. I nearly died when I found it. And played several times. And favourited.
