OK Go On The VMA's (F'N A!):
It was just announced that OK Go will be doing the Treadmill Dance on MTV's Video Music Awards. It will be ultra super glorious. Not only that, but Mr. James Cash Penney himself emailed me to say his clothing company was going to debut a new commercial with DWYW in it right after the boys perform, to be shown only once. It's like the Super Bowl, but without all the Bradshaw. And to top it off, "Here It Goes Again" has been added to ultra crazy ninja rotation at VH1 and super nutty gonzo rotation at MTV. Watch your sexyback, JT.

Go to http://www.jcpenneybts.com/ and select The Spots. (If that doesn't work, go to their regular B2C site and click on the Back to School part in the lower left. (That's what the "bts" part of the URL stands for.)

Congrats on easily making one of the best recent videos and live performances. I want to work out with you guys! :-) If I wasn't already (and I was...you had me at "Get Over It"), I am now officially in love with you guys.

I think there will be a sharp rise in treadmill related injuries due to the hordes of young hipsters who will dust off their pumas and head to their local 24 hour fitness to attempt to copy or imitate your stellar moves.
we will see you in portland next time you are in these parts, treadmills optional.
