Oingo Boingo Secret Appreciation Society

Listen to the OBSAS crew’s unbridled excitement about Danny Elfman’s wild, weird, incandescent Coachella 2022 shows. We share “goosebump moments,” give mad props to everyone involved, and break down why the show worked so beautifully. And of course we geek out over hearing Danny sing Boingo songs for the first time in 27 years.
