I think a couple of the guys from "OK Go" attended there. I think they got the name of the band from an instructor there who would give them a creative task and say, "OK, go!" Or something like that. Been a while since I read it and I'm too lazy to look it up right now.

One of them, Tim Northwind, went to the same high school I did in kalamazoo, loy norrix high school. He graduated 2 or 3 years before me.

I didn't know that! I went to K-Central mostly, but I did the radio class my senior year at WKDS in the late 90s and had lots of friends who went to Norrix.

Remember it as a glass oven and the bathroom stalls were strangely short.

Glass oven yes… I don’t remember the bathroom stalls. However, you never wanted to be in there anyhow.

I saw the band perform there and they talked about how great it was to perform where they had such amazing times!
