Campfyre Stories

So there I was reading the Ok Go website, checking to see when they’re coming to the area because I want to see them live, when I discovered they are playing Tulip Fest, which means free!  First off, OK Go is probably best known for their viral video of "A Million Ways".  If you haven’t seen it yet (and, chances are, you have) check it out now so you know kind of what I’m talking about.

So I was looking at the Tulip Fest website to see what other bands are playing and O!  M!  G!  They Might Be Giants is going to be there.  I wasn’t even sure they were still together, let alone performing.  Now I’m trying to figure out if I can get them to play Shoehorn with Teeth, since I’m pretty sure their set list will already include Birdhouse in Your Soul.  Both bands are playing on Saturday.  OK Go starts at 2:30 and TMBG follow around 4.  I always make Tulip Fest a priority and make it down for one day, but this year we’re going to have to make a point for Saturday, since Spawn is also a huge fan of TMBG (and will be hoping for Whistling in the Dark).

And here I was planning to hit Northern Lights a couple of days later so I could see OK Go live… 

Oh man, anyone in the Capital District, or from the Capitial District, or familiar with the Capital District (Dawn), I *highly* recommend going to the TMBG site and clicking the "Albany" link.  That was strange and funny and I love these guys.
