Early in the morning after rawking as the opener for They Might Be Giants, Jonathan Coulton was kind enough to come by our studios.  We’ll air the in-studio with him on March 24, but you can listen now:

And you can watch the (partial) video for “The Princess Who Saved Herself” (the first performance ever other than actually recording it for Many Hands):

And for Mr. Fancy Pants:

This has been a pretty cool week.

We had a great time hanging out with They Might Be Giants this afternoon (they’re at the Calvin tonight! You should go!).  We’ll air our chat on March 17, but if you want to listen now:

And you probably want to listen, since it has music (including a crazy minor key version of Dr. Worm) and news about the next kids’ stuff they’ll be doing!  (Like, news you haven’t seen anywhere else, I’m pretty sure.)

Who’s ready?  I’m ready.  Saturday morning, 10:00, Flywheel in Easthampton, the triumphant return of Uncle Rock.  Plus, free pancakes!

Suggested donation of $5 each or just $10 for a whole family!

(He’s signing holiday songs in that picture.  Probably not at Flywheel.)
