Magician Richard McDougall showed me this at the Essential Magic Conference. It is, in my opinion, perfect. Take 4 minutes away from whatever you are doing and enjoy the genius…
Any thoughts?

They’re doing a UK mini-tour at the moment: http://www.okgo.net/shows/ Two dates left. I saw them in Bristol a couple of days ago – great show with some fun geeky touches.
You can see most of their videos at http://www.okgo.net/media/videos/ btw

Awesome AWESOME video. I’ve watched it at least 20 times. This video will disappoint slightly:
But it’s a brilliant video non the less.

It does feel already old, though.

I loved it! Gave me goosebumps.

Here’s another version of the same song they did with the University of Notre Dame Marching Band: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=UJKythlXAIY . Also very creative, but the Rube Goldberg Machine is brilliant.

That is amazing. Takes that Honda advert to a new level!

Ok Go is truly an original band. They rock. And their music is wicked too.

That was amazing, but in my opinion, perfection excludes the destruction of a piano.

Too hard to follow. And the song sucked.
