Boardies, let the speculation begin!

sherib · March 2011

I don't know, but I like that picture at the top of the Pilobolus page. Are they going to do that?

laydeejol · March 2011

Personally am hoping they do sth as epic as SHADOWLAND but methinks we wouldn't really know whether it was really them performing or not o.O

Also - I'm thinking it's for All Is Not Lost. Whaddya guys think? :] x

Taciturn · April 2011

Anyone else notice the boys have slimmed down or toned recently? Maybe it's all the acrobatic dancing they're doing.

beckysioux · April 2011

I have a few ideas on what songs the video might be for. My strongest inkling is for "In The Glass". My other ideas are "While You Were Asleep", "Before the Earth Was Round" and "All Is Not Lost".

Though I think that if they did it for "BTEWR", it'd be a little reminiscent of Daft Punk's "Around The World".

I'm mainly thinking of the beats and what they could/would/want to do with the dancers. "In The Glass" just feels like it'd be perfect for this project.

Of course, something tells me I'll be wrong on all counts and the video will be for "Needing/Getting". *shrugs*

Taciturn, I noticed it too. I think it's because they're not currently on tour, are eating right and getting the rest they need. Goodness knows those boys could use a bit more than forty winks here and there.

Aleatory · April 2011

Hehehe, I just had the brilliant idea that the video for "In the Glass" should have Ira Glass in it. Just because…Ira…and In the….they rhyme…

**hides in corner**

EDIT: To actually stay on topic, the comments section (in a comment from Pilobolus themselves) on that specific blog post says the video will be out this summer. I'm hoping June, because this was announced...when? Last week? According to another comment, they say they've been rehearsing, so I would guess early summer.

Astronazi · April 2011

I think that All Is Not Lost is a good choice. It's very beat-y. (If that's a word)

Well, I can say for sure that I'm excited! 8D

Taciturn · April 2011

After a little poking around, I believe the upcoming video will be for... -drumroll-

All Is Not Lost!

I found it here: http://www.americandancefestival.org/performances/ADFatDPAC/Pilobolus.html

Great find!

"All Is Not Lost, the live companion to Pilobolus' video
collaboration with the Grammy-winning band OK Go explores perspectives,
gravity, and dimensionality through a kaleidoscopic view of human
connection."

So, it looks like they'll be showing the video and doing something live. Interesting...

And now we wait for the video to be released. Think it'll happen before June 30th?

silver12 · April 2011

Yay! Awesome detective skills, Taciturn!

Well, this is quite exciting, definitely a great song for this.

Yay! And I saw from their tweet that they're doing three nights. Are you going to all three or just one? I wish I could go. This sounds like it's going to be fan-fucking-tastic.

DJRose · May 2011

Just the 11th, but I might be persuaded to go to others. ;-)

I love Team OK Go!

KristaMichelle · May 2011

This video is going to be so awesome, I can feel it. I have no idea what to expect, though. Didn't Damian say somewhere that he thinks it's the best video they've ever made? I can't remember where.

I so wish I could go to NY and see this live. Sometimes living on the west coast is a bummer. I'm so excited you get to go, though, Rachel!

Taciturn · May 2011

Aw man, Los Angeles and New York are the places where everything happens... I wish I could go. I don't think anyone would spring tickets on me for my birthday either.

daisychains · May 2011

I bet this video IS going to be best video from them yet. I might even be able to go see the performance... without OK Go. Darn.

laeticia · May 2011

I JUST WANNA SEE THEM DANCING

OH DEAR LORD why does everything has to go down in NEW York??

Just because it is the concrete jungle where dreams are made of and there's nothing we can do???

(don't act like you didn't laugh at all at what I said, because I know you did. You did, didn't you?)

but oh well, fun apartzzzzzzzz

I STILL WANNA SEE THEM DANCING

:(

EDIT: YAY FOR HISTORY!

EDIT: I'M SORRY, I'D BE IN OK GO EVEN IF I HAD TO WEAR A BLUE TUT. JUST SAYIN'

EDIT: YAY FOR FINISHING THE VIDEO!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

ok, i'm really sorry, but for me, this is SOO EXCITING! Thank you SOO much laydeejol for finding this. I won't be able to go to sleep until I see the video now, but for a good reason :D

violetchaos364 · June 2011

laydeejol – THANK YOU for finding and posting!

AND I'm a little scared.

But it will be epic. It may be cringe epic, but, yeah. And I wondered if the boys were working out or something for this video, because we've been commenting on their recent dropping a few pounds.

OMG those… leotards?

YES, what's up with TIM???
