ok go! is good

yesterday i had to work at the private ok go! acoustic set at the ladybug club. fm102.1 was doing this contest thing for people to win a chance to see their acoustic show before they opened for death cab for cutie at the rave. all i have to say is it's about friggin' time i get to meet some semi famous people. but anyways...for one, the ladybug club is sweet. it has a bunch of leather furniture and disco-y lights. i need to go "clubbing" more. for two, though ok go! isn't that famous they were really good. acoustic shows are harder to put on because you actually have to be good at playing the guitar instead of hooking it up to an amp and getting all that whatever it is that hides mistakes when playing. but there were only three guys and they harmonized really well. they played sitting down on the stage while everyone sat around them all indian style like a bunch of hippies. that's why i thought the ladybug club was a strange choice. anyway, my only negative comments about this band was that they were obviously trying way too hard to look bandish with their style. i hate when bands do that cause you know what they're wearing is uncomfortable. and also they had this one song where one of the guys sang the word "zero" like 10 times in a row in a monotone voice and it sounded really bad and annoying.
