I was supremely pissed at this show. It wasn't until I got there that I found out that the ticket I bought only got me into the stands and that I couldn't go down on the floor. That's why it seemed so dead for OK Go, all the fans who weren't from UMass were in the stands instead. That aside it was pretty good. I mean it was the same set that played at WPI, but it was cool to hear the songs live again. Though I will point out the lack of coordinated dancing UMass staffers during the acoustic set like we had at WPI.
Ben Folds was pretty good too. I finally got to see him with a drummer and bassist. When he came to WPI it was just him, and it was kinda lame.
Oh yeah and at the end of their set OK Go said something like "See you in July!" or maybe it was August, so does anyone know if they are coming back to UMass?

In July or August? I doubt it. School doesn't start up again until the beginning of September, so there wouldn't be any point in UMass holding a show before then. Unless there's some kind of festival going on at UMass in July not directly related to UMass. But that I'd also doubt.
And they'll be in Australia/Asia for most of August.

I think they're going back to Mass in general, or it may be Harvard specifically. You can check it out in the "Double Dare" thread, or link here for the brief write-up.

I love that description.
I will have to use this from now on.
