The Highest Accomplishment of Human Culture to Date
The University of Notre Dame Marching Band reinterprets OKGO’s “Here It Goes Again,” aka, the treadmill song. Watch the formations carefully.
And FYI, OKGO is the greatest band ever, so, you know, that’s settled. Argue amongst yourselves as to who’s #2.

That was probably the most fantastic thing ever… OK Go started a pretty awesome phenomenon with that song!

Clever. It needed that overhead shot like the June Taylor Dancers on the Jackie Gleason Show did. I can only imagine the folks sitting in the front row were scratching their heads.

(A) I’m not absolutely certain, but I’m PRETTY sure that was more awesome than five awesome things.
(B) As for number 2, I’ll vote for The Public Radio All-Stars?
(Why, yes, yes I AM blatantly pandering.)

aw, now I want to play rockband, and it’s too late to be making a lot of racket with neighbors.

That must make this the greatest marching band ever.

I’m glad I saw this. Now I can have a good day.

That was basically the most awesome thing ever. Think there needs to be some more dialogue about who the greatest band ever is, but the Okie’s get the Greatest Marching Band Ever title hands down with some periods and exclamation points(!.!.!.)

Thank you for posting my video on your blog. I’m glad you liked it. When they started, I wasn’t sure where they were going with it. After seeing the treadmill formation, my mind was simply blown.

Peter, the marching band geek in me totally came out while watching this video. Thanks for posting it!
PS - Indiana University has the best band (aka the Marching Hundred)

Makes my daughter’s HS marching band look like something the dog threw up.
