I'll start.
your turn.
i heard ok go at Hudson Rocks for the first time last nite bc my friend dragged me out of the house, and i must say, im now a fan. it was an awesome show, and i can't wait for the CD to come out!
OK Go is the spiffiest band ever.
NICE hat, Tim.
I got hooked on OKGO at TMBG concerts. :)
Sometimes I wish I was a man, just so I could have sideburns like Tim's.
by a strange twist of fate, somewhere above the clouds, i met a guy that tours with you a few months ago (mike?). fast foward....thursday: I was walking down 14th street and saw someone i thought was him wearing a dark hat, but blew it off, because why would he be in nyc. then my friend just told me she went to see the donnas and this band ok go on thursday. now i'm left kicking myself for not saying something!!! was it him? if so...hi.
Ortley Beach today (well, technically yesterday) was amazing...just like the shows I've seen in Hoboken.
Why are you guys so cool? I can't stand it!
the show was awsome, i actually happened to stumble into the back and briefly met damian, i was freaken nervous, so i picked up a free drink and left.
Hi everyone. Wish I could've been at the show. Haven't seen the guys since March. I need an OK Go fix pretty badly. Especially now that I am in love with all the new songs. Come to Omaha, Nebraska before September 1st. Then go to Southern California after September 1st. (That's when I'm moving.)
p.s. You should get the band Addison to open for you at a socal show sometime. They are from Chicago but moved to California a couple years ago.
Caught Ok Go at the Lollapalooza show in Chicago. These guys are the freaking best! Please play in Chicago again! I can't get enough!!
Lollapalooza. Awesome. OK Go just rocks.
Again, the dance never ceases to amaze. I had seen the dance when they played at the Park West, but my friends who accompanied to Lolla had never really even heard of OK Go. The dance was just icing on the cake! Now they are big fans and wait for the new album.
I saw OK Go at Lollapalooza, and before they came on, I was one of those lame-os who probably said something along the lines of "Tee hee, I liked that one song that the radio played that one time." Now though, I'm one of those slightly less lame-os who says things like "Oh my god, I love them truly absolutely and forever...tee hee!" Plus, the new album comes out on my birthday. Take that!
The guys were fantastic at Lollapalooza! It was only my second time seeing them (I've only been a fan since I discovered them at the Kaiser Chief show at Park West) The set was amazing and I brought the boys some ties after the show! I can't wait to see them live again!!
So FNX has recently started this "Off the Radar" concert series. The premise, as I understand it, is to introduce Boston to up and coming acts. The whole *find out what's cool before the rest of the world does*. This is all good... hoorah for them supporting the little guy. However, here's how it works... they host a concert with a couple of bands they think you should start paying attention to and then... they don't tell you where it is! The only way to go is to call and win tickets. Is it just me or does this seem conterintuitive? Anyway, it's particular annoying right now cuz OK Go is on the latest Off the Radar concert, and flutter my grrly little eyes as I may, I still don't know where the show is happening.
I just wished that okgo would play a show in dc before august 28th.
i wish...
that ok go would come play in richmond, virginia
that would be spectacular!
Nice photo of y'all from Lollapalooza on the Chicago Metblog
yup i caught OKGO at lollapalooza in chicago and YES i was also one of those tools who said "i hope they play that song i know from the radio". and i truly enjoyed the entire performance. and if they don't come back to chicago soon i may just go nuts. can i join the line to bang damian and andy? anyway, the dance number made me almost pee my pants. they are hilarious. and i saw damian dancing w/beetle bob backstage for spoon too! hmmm makes me feel like dancin!
Saw OK Go for the first time at Lollapalooza, and holy cow, the dance number pretty much ensured that I will love y'all forever. Definitely worth getting up and going outside despite being a Sunday and hot as hell. Well done.
I love Ok Go, whom I have only seen once since they NEVER come to the UK anymore :(
Right now I'd like to comment that I have just seen InMe live and yesterday was the greatest day of my life!
Everyone have a nice day and eat something delectable for lunch!

It was great to see you guys around Lollapalooza. Can't wait to hear the album.
<3.
I saw 1/2 of Ok Go at Tadish Gril in San Fransico California! I got their autograph! They asked me to go to the concert that night, but I had to go home. They couldn't suppy me with a ride home and they didn't want to take me on tour with them; they missed out. :)
Here is your comment that is not about (sadly) the NYC, NJ, or Chicago shows because I don't live anywhere near those cities so I would never go to any show in one of them, not even an OK Go show.
i like pineapples....
but i love Ok Go.
<333
does anyone think of lenny kravitz when they heard do what you want? haha just a thought.
Jorge is only the coolest person to ever exist.
I had a dream where Jorge had called me and my sister and we were like, "OH MY GOD, IT'S JORGE!" And our phone was on speakerphone or something, so we were carrying the phone around with us while Jorge was talking. We kind of stopped listening to him though. That so would not happen if Jorge actually called me.
Yes, I am insane in case you were wondering.
the amount of love i have for ok go is insane. the sooner they come to boston the sooner ill be extremely happy.
love
julia
Dear OK Go:
After our pin-pong tourney in Chicago, we decided to buy tix for lollapalooza for one reason and one reason alone - Gwendolyn and the Good Time Gang. Amidst "Animal Sounds" we overhead a melodic tune caressing my cochlea that went a little something like "..You're so Damn Hot!.." Sound familiar?? ;) And I was like, "Thanks". So yeah. Rock on! Btw, you're hot.

Finally saw OK Go at Lollapalooza after being a huge, huge fan for two plus years. And got to meet Damian and have him thank me for being a fan :) Highlight of my life and worth Lollapalooza price of admission for SURE. Love you guys so much!!
Saw ok go at lollapalooza. I speed walked to the stage and got second row. It was worth the 102 degree weather and the early train just so see these guys. Amazing Job on the A million Ways dance. I was blown away.
double sadness....but then good-ness, too!
I went to see Ok Go and Kaiser Chiefs in June, I think in LA(I live in CA), and I missed Ok Go's set!!!!! I only caught the dance, and I videoed it(haha). It was amazing....anyways, then I went to NY and I left NYC to go to upstate NY and Ok Go was playing the week I left NY!!!!!!!!! I was so saddened!!!! I was missing the Redwalls NY show, too! Oh well....
Good news......I'm seeing Ok Go(actually both bands!)when they come to LA in Sept!!! yay. :]
The end.
