Hello, Friends!

Always Pack Strings Well, I’m sure those of you who came out to see me in Philadelphia are still telling your friends all about that epic double string break.

Will I ever stop?

Hello friends!

I was just going to tell you that I’m about to go off the grid, but I’m kind of off the grid all the time anyway, so.

Hello friends.

I feel a little like Mickey Mouse in Fantasia (google it, youngs).

Thank you to everyone who came out to see my sell-out (!)

This is one of those situations where I go to a place with a guitar and stand on the stage and play it and sing, and then other people hopefully buy tickets so they can sit in the audience and watch.

I’m not even sure this thing still works.

“You mean Some Guys ARE Charting.”

I’m very excited to make this secret project public today: I have a new album called Some Guys and it is covers of 70s soft rock songs that sound exactly like the originals.

Do you feel that?

Because it is a FAQ, here are the credits/liner notes for Solid State: All words and music by Jonathan Coulton All vocals by Jonathan Coulton All instruments and noises by Jonathan Coulton and Christian Cassan except: Aimee Mann Background and harmony voc…

Solid State – Now In Paperback!

OMG look!

Hi everyone, if you’ve been here before, you might notice things look a little different.

Yes, I’m here!

Guys, this show is GREAT.

I’m delighted to report that there is in fact a THIRD PORTAL SONG that exists in the world now, thanks to the people who made the new LEGO Dimensions game.

I got a letter last week.

I’ve been working on many things behind the scenes lately, and one of them is this new album called JoCo Live.

If you only follow me here on this blog, you might not yet have heard me screaming about this on Twitter.

UPDATE: The JoCo Spring Cleaning store will be CLOSING permanently for business on Friday, June 20th (the last day of Spring).

Last post was October 16th?!?!

From the mailing list: Hooboy, Summer is truly over isn’t it?

I’m happy to report that the Kicktarter Greg Pak and I launched a long time ago has born delicious fruit, i.e., bananas.

Dear Samuel: One Christmas at a Time is BY-NC except for “Wikipedia Chanukah” which is BY-SA.

Hello fellow cruisers past present and future!

About a week ago my friend Greg Pak and I announced a secret project we’ve been working on called Code Monkey Save World.

It always takes me a few days to come down from the experience.

This went up in the iTunes store a lot faster than I expected (nice work there Tunecore), and some of you have already found it: iTunes: Baby Got Back (In the Style of Glee) GooglePlay: Baby Got Back (In the Style of Glee) AmazonMP3: Baby Got Back (In the…

Check out the Store!

This morning, someone pointed me to this: http://glee.wikia.com/wiki/Baby_Got_Back Admittedly it seems to be an unofficial wiki, and I can’t find any clearly FOX-based source that lists this track as a part of episode 11 of season 4.

Hello peoples!

You guys, I think I understand why people tour in busses.

People of the world: I’m playing at The Stateroom in Salt Lake City tonight with John Roderick.

I am writing this post here on my luxurious tour bus.

All tickets are on sale for the big Nov/Dec tour with the band.

If you’re going to be in Seattle on October 29th, may I recommend this historic live event, of which I’m a part: It’s a once in a lifetime intersection of several entertainment empires.

Salt Lake City, the last ticket link for the Nov/Dec tour, has finally gone up.

Just sent this to the email list.

I’m going to the beach for a couple weeks with the family, but you should know that in September I’m touring in the UK with Paul and Storm.

Yesterday I picked up a package that was waiting for me at my post office box.

Here’s what happened: I retweeted Aimee Mann’s link to a post by David Lowery on his Trichordist blog, a post that he wrote in response to something Emily White posted on the All Songs Considered blog.

I’m on tour!

People!

You may remember me talking about this new NPR quiz show I’m a part of called Ask Me Another.

Warm up your cease and desists.

I know, this album has already been out for around 15 years, but there’s no new one yet.
