Do It: Watch the Muppet Show Theme Song

Sometime in, say, 2000, I went to a concert at the Black Cat in Washington, DC. Back then, the neighborhood was woefully sketchy -- not the kind of place you might be hoping to start a cool bookstore or buy a condo. When you went, you brought plenty of people with you, moved swiftly, and exuded a sense of purpose. My purpose was to see a young straight-ahead rock and roll band named OK Go.

They were good. Not earth-shattering, but fun. So I signed up for their email list when I left. I have been getting posts from them ever since and it has been interesting to watch their meteoric rise as they harnessed the power of kooky videos in a viral age.

Anyhoo, they have been tapped to perform the new Muppet Show movie theme song, and--as per usual--the video is a blast.

So do it: Watch the Muppet Movie theme song, which recapitulates the past OK Go videos.

PS - Arghhhhhhhhh! Man, we most posolutely can NOT close this blog entry without recommending the video that really put the boys on the map: "Here It Goes Again" by OK Go, now playing on iTunes.
