OK GO IN CONCERT:
Not many indie rock bands are as irresistibly charming as OK Go. They create truly infectious, sunny alt pop songs and perform them with loads of charisma and quirky playfulness in concert. With confetti cannons exploding at any given time and Andy Warhol-inspired visuals surrounding the stage, this is a band that relishes the art of performance and transforms shows into interactive experiences. One impressive trick they're known for is prompting the crowd to make certain noises, recording the audio, and then playing it back in a song. Masterminding the spectacle is frontman Damian Kulash, who exudes magnetic personality and gives every performance a casual, friendly atmosphere. For a band that's famous for imaginative, eye-grabbing videos, OK Go's live shows prove they're even more captivating in person.
BACKGROUND SNAPSHOT:
OK Go formed in Chicago in 1998 and relocated to Los Angeles three years later. After their first pair of EPs captured booking agent Frank Riley's attention, they scored a touring gig alongside fellow indie rockers They Might Be Giants. In 2001 they inked a deal with Capitol Records and released their self-titled debut album, which reached No. 1 on Billboard's Heatseekers chart. Following the release of their sophomore album, 2005's Oh No, the band established a reputation for high-concept, low-budget, one-take music videos. The video for their hit single "Here It Goes Again" -- which features the quartet performing an elaborate treadmill dance routine -- became a viral hit and earned them a Grammy for Best Short Form Music Video in 2007. After successful tours opening and co-headlining with indie acts including Snow Patrol, Death Cab for Cutie, Kaiser Chiefs, and Silversun Pickups, they released their third album, 2010's Of The Blue Colour Of The Sky. In 2011 the band cut ties with Capitol and formed the independent imprint Paracadute, making their debut on the new label with the live album 180/365. The band’s fourth studio album, Hungry Ghosts, was released in 2014 and featured a more synth-heavy, electronic-influenced sound.
Absolutely amazing musicians and great interaction with the crowd!
What a great band. The venue is great, very intimate. The show was amazing, I can’t recommend them enough. My wife and I had a fantastic night out with a little casino time as well.
Such a fun show! Great tunes and a small enough crowd to really have a good time! Loved the audience participation. Would definetely see another show!
Absolutely great talent! Put on a great show, really got the crown going and were right in there having fun with their fans! Great group - would go again!!
They put on a awesome show! They Really know how to work the Crowd.
Fabulous venue, perfect for these guys. Not huge fans of the first opening band (forgettable I'm afraid) but Company of Thieves was awesome and the female lead has the most fabulous voice and stage presence. Perfect way to ramp up the energy for the MAIN act. OK Go are consumate professionals but tons of fun and never take themselves too seriously. Banter was great, music amazing, and the band is just soooooo accessible, especially in a venue this size. Couldn't stop dancing, and didn't stop smiling for hours!
Thoroughly enjoyed the band. Amazing live performance! I had wanted to watch them live since having their first album but never got the chance to.
These guys were great. My cousin is not a big fan of this kind of music but she absolutely loved this band because of their originality and entertainment value. It was a lot of fun and they definately are great entertainers. Even besides their music, they are very fun. And they sound as good live as they do on cd. I would definately go again!
The concert was good, the bands were great. I enjoyed the show. The venue was a little narrow. I would definately see OK Go again.
Awesome show! Opening act Company of Theives was so good and really got the crowd warmed up for the main event. I was dancing and singing all night!
