Jonathan Coulton is the Contributing Troubadour for Popular Science magazine and the musical director for John Hodgman’s Little Gray Book Lectures.

      You were awesom in Pontiac! But then again... WHY PONTIAC!? I mean, the Hayloft in Mt Clemens would be better than that musty hot crowded room! And whole 4 people were actualy from Pontiac. Come on JoCo, you can do better.

      While there may not be too many demanding JoCo come down to Melbourne, we must remember the golden rule that Wayne's World 2 taught us. If you build it, they will come... Anyways, just won over a new JoCo fan last week so I'm helping to do my bit!

      I've been to two Coulton shows in Chicago, but now I'm moving to Houston. The demand there is high! Here's hoping you'll return to Texas on your next tour. =)

      My mom forgot to buy my ticket to your show in Chicago, and then it was sold out.. I was so upset. You are my favorite song writer ever. The Cake is a Lie!

      I am really happy that Jonathan Coulton is coming to Portland. I and many of my friends are big fans and were hoping he would come. Unfortunately, the venue is 21 and over and so we won't be able to go. :-( I hope he comes again and to a venue that will accept us...

      My dad got me into his music...normally it's the other way round! He went to his gig in London and said it was amazing so next time he plays I'd love to go see him. Jonathan also threw out a pink Skullcrusher mountain top which my dad caught for me! Well happy! xx =]

      Amazing talent! First time I saw the WoW video for Code Monkey I was hooked. Portal was a genius game and I fell in love with the song and nearly skipped for joy when I found out it was JoCo who wrote it. Finally I found his website and am now a fan for life! Can't wait to hear the next song!

    Bio
    Jonathan Coulton is the Contributing Troubadour for Popular Science magazine and the musical director for John Hodgman’s Little Gray Book Lectures. His songs about vengeful nerds, ennui-afflicted clowns, partially-imagined historical figures, and devotees of a certain Swedish prefab furniture store are insanely clever without ever being too clever for their own good. They repeatedly lure you into laughing before suddenly breaking your heart. And the sick part is, you keep coming back. Coulton's is the voice of every spooky elementary school kid who could never quite keep his shirt tucked in or shoes tied; every lovelorn mason and mad scientist; every one of us who has ever sat despairingly on the floor, surrounded by parts of an Ikea endtable, weeping over our allen wrenches. He is ready to soft-rock your socks off.
