At Music Hall of Williamsburg tonight, Marisa and Michelle and Rayme figured out that it's been almost about ten years since they first saw OK Go open for They Might Be Giants. It doesn't seem right.

I don't really understand "A Good Idea at the Time." I would've half-assed that one, too. I would gladly have traded that for "No Sign of Life" or "Crash the Party."

On the new album, I really like "Back from Kathmandu." I'm glad they played it. I would've swapped "Louisiana Land" for "Needing/Getting" or "I Want You So Bad I Can't Breathe."

SO MUCH CONFETTI.

And yes, "Debaser" fucking ruled. "Debaser" when you least expect it is will always make me happy.

Yeah, except for "Louisiana Land" and their slower/sadder songs at the end, they played most everything I really like from the new record (and "Land" is really more like a B-side anyway). I like "Needing/Getting" more than "Skyscrapers" so I would've considered jettisoning the latter.

That's true. My problem with "Needing/Getting" is that I think it's "I Want You So Bad I Can't Breathe," which is the worst offender of OK Go songs with choruses that just repeat the title a few times.
