Jonathan Coulton live in Dublin
Jonathan Coulton returned to Europe. Last Saturday he played a fantastic concert at the Academy 2 in Dublin, Ireland. I had a splendid time along with 200 Irish people. The audience sang along like there was no tomorrow. We even got an unplanned encore. There just wasn’t a weak moment in the whole show. I wish I could indulge in all the little details and communicate better the awesomeness of JoCo. But I really don’t know where to begin and where to end and how to describe the simple fact that I thoroughly enjoyed myself. Here’s the setlist:
- Betty and Me
- Ikea
- Shop Vac
- Code Monkey
- Better
- Tom Cruise Crazy
- Blue Sunny Day
- Big Bad World One
- Birdhouse in your Soul
- Creepy Doll
- Mr. Fancy Pants
- I’m Your Moon
- The Future Soon
- Skullcrusher Mountain
- Still Alive
- Re: Your Brains
- I Feel Fantastic
- First of May
- Sweet Caroline
- A Talk with George

You can find the entire setlist here. […]
