  • welcome to the board, nice avatar *goes to read your review*
  • Fel yesterday was totally awesome. It was cool to see the drunk side of the band. Your review rocked my socks. I'm linking to it later on my site.
  • Does anybody know? Did the guys get an XBOX for performing? tongue.gif
  • yay! it was fun, but i was sad because everyone was there for x-box. i don't understand video games and their appeal. the choice between live music and pressing buttons seems like an obvious one to me

    yes, they did get an x-box haha but they said they don't really like video games all that much so i dont know how much use it will get

    i loved the end of the dance, when they were holding tim up in the air and he made an "x" with his arms haha, and also during the fix is in when damian replaced "boston" with "x-box". genious! haha i saw that he was spilling his drink too

    gah! i have to rant here. i got down there SUPER early (at 3) thinking there would be a big line up of x box people, so i brought an essay to work on with all my notes. AND I LOST IT!!!!!!!! i feel like crying until i can cry no more. 2 weeks i worked on it! im sad.

    and i agree, drunken ok go is much fun smile.gif

    very cool review, thanks for sharing smile.gif!

  • I was there too. And for work, no less, but this was one of the more fun industry functions I've had to attend even though I know nothing about the Xbox or gaming. Free drink and OK Go are very good things.

    They didn't play You're So Damn Hot though. To the best of my recollection, which is a bit hazy thanks to that whole free drink thing, they played Don't Ask Me, No Sign of Life, Here it Goes Again, Bye Bye Baby, A Good Idea at the Time, It's a Disaster, Get Over It, The Fix is In, Oh Lately It's So Quiet, Invincible and Do What You Want. And the dance, of course. So not a full set, but pretty close. And they totally almost dropped Tim as he was trying to do the "X" with his arms to finish off the dance. Hee.

    I think your right... i ment to say Dont ask me instead of your so damn hot... it was really just a blur ! Any ways I love Dont ask me... i was singing along at the top of my lungs!
  • I found this gallary with some Ok Go photos from the party. Enjoy!

    Gallary
  • coolness, but I have cooler news...
    Ok Go will be on MuchNews Weekly on Much Music at 10:30pm ET and 7:30pm PT this sunday. It will show stuff from the party: them interviewing kids, them joking around and probably them playing their songs. Also you could probobly see me grinning in the background of the shots. laugh.gif
  • i hope the guys burn the x-box to prove how amazingly cool they are to the world..

    If they're smart, they'll do that. There are some that are going for $1,000,000 on Ebay. My brother has been yelling about it all weekend, 'cause my mom promised to get them one but didn't think she'd needed to reserve it, and my brother's like, "We could have been millionaires!!!"

    Heres some much better pics. Very artsy shots.


    Hey, do you know the person who took those photos, or did you just find them? I'd love to make some of them into some nifty avatars. (Even though my nifty avatars aren't all that nifty, as all I have is dinky Paint, no Photoshop.)

    No... Sorry I don't, I just scoured the internet looking for them. They are awesome pics. I think you can email the guy on the website.
