Jonathan Coulton

Last night I went to go see Jonathan Coulton perform, in keeping with my apparent policy to only ever go to geek band concerts. It was awfully fun. The audience just about collectively died laughing when he rickrolled us. Amazing.

I was surprised to enjoy the opening band, Paul and Storm, about as much as I enjoyed Jonathan Coulton. You have to love an opening band that sings a self-deprecating song about being the opening band and makes lolcat references in their patter. Also, I won a prize: one of their CDs, and a pirate bandana, and a glow-in-the-dark zombie finger puppet. And a cookie. (But I eated it.)
