Ookla the Mok sighting!
Aug. 28th, 2003 11:11 pmOr would that be a sounding?
In any case, I was flipping channels and happened upon a commerical on Nickelodeon which was playing, of all things, the opening bars of Ookla the Mok's "Das Uber Tuber". This is the first time I've heard their stuff being used in such a venue, and I'm wondering how on earth the station got ahold of the song. I mean, this is a filk band, not too well known outside of filk/fannish circles. Still, it's cool :)
A reminder to anyone interested in the VividCon DVDs, orders *and* payments are due by Sept. 7th. Considering this is a holiday weekend, it'd be a good idea to order those by tomorrow. Two disks, over 50 vids, only $10. Not a bad deal. Ordering info here.
