Jonathan Coulton Friday

Jonathan Coulton was in town Friday. Turns out, a video of on of the songs made it onto YouTube:But be warned that that it only coveys about 3% of how awesome the concert was. Go to Coulton's website and you can listen to all of his stuff for free. He also has a blog post which includes a video from a Chicago appearance this weekend:Finally, the original Code Monkey Dance video:This last one is especially worth watching. It's a great song--some time down the pike, I actually plan to write on why it's one of the best songs written in recent years. But for now, just watch the video.

Oh, and PS: Check out the website of Paul and Storm, who opened for/backed up Coulton. Somewhere in there, Coulton made a joke about being upstaged by them, which didn't quite happen, but he wasn't exactly going overboard flattering them there, either.
