Hmm, I can't find any OK Go news on this page. Could you clue me in?

From that article:

QUOTE
Every band let it all hang out, including OK GO bassist Tim Nordwind, who did a striptease backstage that was broadcast on the big screen – loved the cape and the gold underpants.



WHAT!??

Bakersfieldfan – I certainly never tire of reading OK Go articles!

Here's a contribution. Sorry if someone else already posted this and I didn't see it:

Dig For Fire: A Pixies Tribute

QUOTE
Scottish post-rockers and Zidane soundtrackers Mogwai will cover Pixies' "Gouge Away" on an upcoming tribute to the band, set for November 13th release on American Laundromat Records. The label's site confirms that They Might Be Giants, OK Go, J Mascis, John P. Strohm, The Rosebuds, and Joy Zipper are also on board for the covers album. More details to come, though the Mogwai and Mascis inclusion already rates this better than that Sgt. Peppers Lonely "All-Star" jam. We'll get ya a listen ASAP.

Someone on the JC was at the Edmonton concert and posted about Tim's striptease (that was weird to write)!

If you read the article it says that OKGO is going to be part of the tribute album to the Pixies which is what you posted about right after this post so IM not sure if you found it there or somewhere else. (ONE MORE DAY TILL OKGO! Praying for great weather!!!!!!!! )

I didn't see an existing thread for the MSU Mankato, MN show. This is less of a show review and more of a story on how MSU lost funding for events such as these. At least go see the 2 pictures of OK Go and Damian.

Hmmm… that's the second article where a $30,000 budget is mentioned (the other being about Pepperdine). Is that the full budget for the opening acts, venue costs, etc.? If so, how much of that does OK Go see? So now I'm wondering if that's common for them or if they just extend a courtesy to universities. If it's the former, then that is just wrong! Especially considering I just read last week about Jennifer Lopez* (I think it was her) getting paid $2 million by some Russian millionaire to perform a few songs at some private event. What is going on in the world today?

P.S. That could explain why these guys have to tour so much.

P.P.S. I'm finished with my rant now…

*Edit: It's her. I just double-checked it at bestweekever.tv. Her fee averages out to approximately $50,000 per minute!

Wall Street Journal techie article

Mems also are being used in more-exotic specialty products. Roger Smith, a former Analog engineer, started Source Audio LLC, in Woburn, Mass., to make a $400 device called Hot Hand that a guitarist can wear on his finger like a large ring. Using mems to sense hand motions, the wireless device can control distortion and other sound effects by hand motion instead of stationary floor-pedals. Among early users are guitarists Rusty Ross and Damian Kulash of the band OK Go, which won YouTube's 2006 music-video award.

OK Go is neat
