Jonathan Coulton Concert

The boy wanted to go for his birthday.  I wasn't as looking forward to it as I could be - I find Coulton to be hit or miss, and I had never heard of Paul and Storm (the opening act).  

Despite one heck of a headache, I had a blast.

Paul and Storm were hilarious.  They're sense of comedic timing is perfect, the songs were well written and funny.  I think I am going to have to add their album to the list of things waiting for their space in my media budget.

And Coulton was fabulous.  Even the songs that I didn't normally like, I did when he did them live.  I suspect some of them are meant to be done live and that's why I don't like them as much.

I am very glad we went, the boy had a blast, and all was right with the world (except the headache I got from being far too close to the speaker (price of being close to the stage) and the light reflecting off the guitars.).
