Jonathan Coulton is coming to Pittsburgh. I just bought four tickets to the show. I’m sad because I didn’t buy five. You see, I’ve been anticipating seeing JoCo in concert for awhile now and on the very night that Mr. Coulton will be performing, I will be somewhere between here and Lake Erie. His show falls on the same night as the Escape to the Lake bike ride for the MS Society. Isn’t karma supposed to make stuff like this not happen? Perhaps I’m paying for a previous misdeed. Boo. Hiss.

To ease my pain, I’ve been playing some of my favorites:
