What TShirt Contest?

I know, it’s been a REALLY long time since winners were announced, and where the hell are the shirts? Here is your answer. And they are only there because Scarface set them up for me – did I mention how awesome it is to have an assistant?

I’m going to start by selling them on CafePress and see how things go, I may eventually end up finding a place to print them so I can sell them at shows. I’ve just ordered one of each for myself so I can see how they look, but at this point you should know the final product is unseen. I can vouch for the excellence of the artwork, but not the ultimate overall shirt quality, you see what I’m saying.

Thanks again to all the entrants and winners: this was big fun.

Minneapolis

What a fine, fine show that was – thanks to everyone who was a part of yet another really fun crowd. I’m sorry that you all had to stand, and I’m doubly sorry that in spite of that I did the longest show ever. Even my feet were tired by the end, and I have nuclear powered cybernetic feet.

Tonight, Madison.

In the meantime, please enjoy this video of Ian doing the 51 state songs from Hodgman’s audiobook (honestly, I don’t remember any of these).

Happy First of May Suckers

I actually did start the day with a scone, but only a medium house blend. And I was in an airport, so no squirrels. But still. Tonight is Varsity Theater in Minneapolis – and yes, I too am excited about being able to sing First of May on the first of May, but please do not show up naked.

I spent all my time in Seattle and Portland walking around with a Flip Video in my pocket annoying all the very nice people who were just trying to check me into my hotel or sell me a donut. Below are the results (in a fancy playlist – thanks for the suggestion Javier). Part 1 is my trip to Seattle, Part 2 is our drive to Portland and the show there. I hope there will be more parts, but I haven’t edited them together yet.

Also, a longer version of the Giant Donut Incident exists, but I will leave that for Paul and Storm to post and discuss.
