HIGA Reminder. Also HIGA (UK Surf)
A reminder that "Here It Goes Again" is out in the UK, as a 7" vinyl and as a 2 song CD with a cover of "The Lovecats" as the b-side. You'll buy it, if you know what's good for us.

Not only that, but the "UK Surf Mix" alternate version is on sale at iTunes and 7digital and places like that. The boys recorded it at home not long ago, and it's pretty durn cool. You need to be in the UK to get it from iTunes, but 7Digital is open to all, but only for playback with Windows Media on PCs.

and... the album just came out in Australia!

OK Go & Rusty on This Week In Baseball--TODAY
Only one television show in the world that teaches young catchers how to block the plate, and then features an interview with major league guitarist Andy Ross defending the hapless 2006 Boston Red Sox, and talking about his childhood as a Sox follower. If you're a fan of OK Go, baseball, or any other team in the American League, you should definitely tune in. And if you don't like baseball tune in to the great plays of the week, set to Invincible. That'll convince you. It's This Week In Baseball, THIS AFTERNOON on Fox - 3:30 Eastern and Pacific. (If not then, try 4:30pm).

GMA Appearance Magically Converted into Conan Performance.
Cancel your plans to get up early on Wednesday morning and make new plans to get up late on Thursday. OK Go will no longer be appearing on Good Morning America tomorrow morning but will be performing on Late Night with Conan O'Brien on Wednesday night. And they'll be killing it, just so you know.
