This is something I didn’t know. Apparently before Oingo Boingo became a New Wave rock band, they were a musical theater troupe called “The Mystic Knights of the Oingo Boingo“. And very weird. Weirder than they were when they played New Wave music. (Which is pretty weird.)
In any case, in 1976 they appeared on The Gong Show!
What an awesomely weird performance on a classically weird TV show.
There are lots of Oingo Boingo music videos on YouTube. Enjoy!
