"We don't do (choreographed dancing) as much anymore 'cause it is kind of expected, so it's not quite as pleasing, or it's not as much of a thrill. But we sort of try to incorporate other things that aren't what you'd see every night, or not what you'd expect at a normal rock show." - Tim
Man, I'm never gonna see them do the backyard dance. *mumbles incoherently*
Nordwind hopes to see an early 2009 release. Now in the writing process, the band plans to record by summer and finish by fall.
i especially liked this article... talking about Tim and his home state/city minus the fact that an early 2009 release is expected... boo. but i'll take what i can get!!!!
GRAND RAPIDS — "This isn't supposed to be a comedy show," said OK Go lead singer and guitarist Damian Kulash from atop the Calvin College Fine Arts Center stage Wednesday evening.
Just noticed that they put Damian's name as Nathan lol

Yeah, posted this in the Calvin College thread already.
Don't get me wrong here, but is it just me or does NPR have a filter to make everyone talk slower? I've never heard Damian speak so slowly before. LOL But hearing his voice like that makes him sound like the incredibly smart guy he is. he should be on NPR more often.
and to top it off, they used the UK Surf version (which I love). but still, everything just seems slower on NPR.

Lol, I agree. I picture the NPR engineer having to keep say, "Cut! You're talking to fast. This is radio....No wait, cut cut!" ....Damian should read children's books on tape.
(BTW, maybe a stupid question, but where/how can I buy the UK surfer version of HIGA?)

iTunes.
As to the slowly talking thing, I'll bet anything he was reading slowly from a prepared statement. He's worked at NPR, he knows the deal. And it's not like he's being interviewed and answering questions on the fly, he probably figured out what he was going to say, typed it up, and read it in a recording studio. Like when he testified for congress he slowed down his usual pace.

Hahaha THAT would be genius...I want to listen to him read, like, a book on tape or something. He could make a boring book very interesting I'm sure
What hasn't Damian done?
Here's the article online:
No Run-of-the Treadmill Band
Edit: I reposted the pictures because they weren't showing up for some reason...weird.
That's so cool of them to stop by at the university. They're wearing normal clothes! It's nice to see them more relaxed like that.
Now I'm imagining a private Ok Go concert in my backyard...randomness...

Want to write a song?
This one here made me laugh so hard Mashup of OK Go and MicroHoo!
“What I like about them is their playfulness with phrasing, their cleverness. Their music is so catchy, hard-driving and funky, but when you really listen, you catch the thoughtfulness of that, the fun of it,”
