Absolute Last Minute Question About Stuff In NYC: Anyone going to see Jonathan Coulton tonight at the Skyline Ballroom? Just wondering if any other MeFites will be there.

I had a vague memory that Coulton and Paul & Storm were going to be in town soon, but didn't realize it was now. I've never seen them in concert, just on youtube, so, if there are still tickets left, sure, sounds like a fun Friday night.

I am seeing the Saturday show instead. Alas!

Just in case you're going to some wrong place, the show is at the Highline Ballroom. I saw him out in Brooklyn in December and it was great — have fun tonight!

Looks like tonight's no good for me after all, sorry, mephron. I may try for tomorrow though.

I just want you to know that I read that as "Absolute Last Minute Question About Snuff in NYC."

If I was a better person, I would have assumed you were talking about ground tobacco.

That is all.

Yeah, probably.

aw man, he played Dance, Soterios Johnson, Dance!? *jealous*

We've been hoping to get to a NYC show, good to know there are other Joco/P&S fans on mefi!

Is this guy actually a big name act or am I just weird? "Re: Your Brains" is one of my first go-to references when zombies are mentioned, and I don't think I've come across a single person yet who has had any idea what I was talking about. I'm not unreasonable, I mean, no one's gonna eat your eyes.
