What on earth was this? And more importantly, where are the photos or videos? And why didn't anyone of us know about this?

    They were at Harvard? 20 minutes from me?
    Aaaw. And lol, good questions- what is this? We want photos! This wasn't on the shows list on okgo.net.
    And it sounds like it was funny, although it is totally unclear what it is they were doing- slime? what?

    "Rusty Ross, who told the audience that his interests include 'kicking Harvard ass and taking names.' " hahaha!

    Awwww. That would have been a sight to see. And yes, how on earth did we not know about this? laugh.gif Some of us have been sleeping on the job here. haha. And how on earth could this happen- OK Go failed to correctly name its own band members?

    Ok, I am dating myself here, but I totally used to watch Double Dare and loved it. I MUST see this footage....so please all of you top notch detective-fans do your magic and find some footage!!
  • truckorgan02truckorgan02
    I emailed Nicholas, the writer, and asked him if there are any footages. Hopefully he'll respond. smile.gif

    EDIT:
    Below, as it appeared in the school paper. It's a little brighter than the one above.

    He responded. And so quickly too, I might add:

    Hi Mia,

    Thanks very much for the email. I'm actually not sure whether or not there's a video; certainly The Crimson took a few photos, but those were printed/posted online today with the story. You'd have to check with the Lampoon to see if they're releasing any footage (and they can be a little clandestine, so I sorta doubt it). Still, there may be some footage they'd be willing to pass along, so it's likely worth dropping a line to someone's email address from their website.

    Thanks again, and good luck!

    Oh man, you guys are great for finding this stuff!


    I almost choked on my crackers when I read this:
    QUOTE
    “When I was 15, I met [current OK Go guitarist]Andy. He was a total jackass when I met him. I had a yo-yo, one of those crazy mechanized yo-yos that keeps spinning. He was like ‘Dude, let me see your yo-yo.’ So he starts swinging my yo-yo around his head and half of it goes flying off into the abyss somewhere. He was like, ‘Oh man, I’m really sorry. How much did that cost?’ And I was like, ‘I think it’s about ten bucks.’ So then he goes ‘Well, here’s five for the half I lost.’”

    Does anyone else want to tear that back wall and keep it? It's purely amazing.
  • rice62witchrice62witch
    I think it's funny that neither Andy nor Damian wanted to ruin their shoes so they're both barefoot! laugh.gif

    I'd rather ruin my shoes. Being barefoot would make me slip!

    What is Damian wearing under his jumpsuit? [Jumpsuit isn't the right word, is it? What would you call them? Overalls? Coveralls? I'm at a loss.]

    Edit: Ooh, I'm Entourage now!
  • suit6lionsuit6lion
    Personally, I like Damian's protective eyewear. (Safety first! biggrin.gif ) There has got to be VIDEO of this event! What a blast!
  • patioshell97patioshell97

    So my friend that goes to Harvard met Damian last night at this interesting ordeal, so I am quite green with envy as of now. Apparently he didn't know about the fact that OK Go was going to be there until yesterday I believe and he hasn't yet filled me in on all the scrumptious details, but he did tease me with the picture of him of Damian.

    Damian's wearing a Nickelodeon Double Dare shirt under that jumpsuit. tongue.gif
