If you've never actually heard Jonathan Coulton's music he's got several songs you can download for free here:

Now for the really good news: I got an email from JC today and he said "Minneapolis is in the works, possibly for early December. I should know more in a couple weeks"
So yay! We should be getting us some Coulton in a couple months! Woo hoo!
