On Friday, March 6th, I saw the band OK Go at the Theater of Living Arts. The show was quite incredible, as expected. I first saw them open up for The Fray in 2007 and was blown away by their live show. They always seem to think of the most creative ways to showcase their music, and Friday was no exception.
The venue was quite crowded as OK Go took the stage. Their set consisted of favorites from their two previous CDs, their debut self-titled album OK Go, and sophomore album Oh No. These few concerts scattered across the East and West Coasts are to debut new songs from their upcoming album. From what I heard, I'm very excited for their new songs. They have their funky energetic beats and rhymes that makes OK Go the unique band they are. A screen in back of the drums catered to video footage of designs, videos, and live close-ups of each band member via the video camera on their mics. Confetti scattered over the audience at high energetic points in the show. The band seemed to be enjoying themselves just as much (if not more) than the audience chanting their lyrics and dancing to their high quality tunes. The high point would have to be when they abandoned their instruments and played "What To Do" with bells--very impressive and hilarious.
