		<description>Whoops. Just realized my previous comment was poorly worded. There&#039;s an extra clip of JoCo that I filmed after the show, but in the video it was inserted in at about 2:50

		<description>‘take a point called z in the complex plane for which the orbit of 0 under iteration of the following polynomial is bounded’

Now... THAT&#039;S catchy!  Great.  Now I&#039;m going to have that in my head all day!</description>

		<description>Mr. Coulton,

We regret to inform you that your description of the fractal characterized by the sequence of points on the complex plane a sub n = (a sub n-1)^2 + c where the series of points do not diverge is not in fact the Mandelbrot set.  This is the Julia set, of which we know you are aware, but your mistake in naming it has not gone unnoticed.  Now, if you want to sing about Gaston Julia, for whom the Julia set is named, you will retain your so-called &#039;geek cred&#039; and all that goes along with it, and if you tweak your lyrics slightly and say &#039;take a point called z in the complex plane for which the orbit of 0 under iteration of the following polynomial is bounded&#039;, you will retain your &#039;geek cred&#039; and all that goes along with it, but since you have so ostentatiously profaned the good name of Benoit Mandelbrot, the father of fractal geometry, by attributing to him a completely different fractal, we are forced to not recognize you as a geek in the field of mathematics.

We do, however, wish you well in your endeavors in developmental genetics, computer science, villainy, and oceanography.

Best wishes,

Dr. Ann de Gret</description>

		<description>Paul and Storm were on it last night. Kudos to Mr. Coulton for busting out the Journey and bringing out flowe and butterfly props for &quot;First of May.&quot; I also thought it was great that he actually got some folks to slow dance. The crowd was ridiculous, in a good way.</description>

		<description>JoAnn

I forget when, exactly, but in at least 2 songs he started giggling at our audience-ial antics.

And he got all wide-eyed when about 1/4 of us shouted &quot;I WILL!&quot; after he sane &quot;No one&#039;s gonna eat your eyes&quot;. I grinned at that.

The crowd was *awesome*, Paul &amp; Storm rocked (&quot;We&#039;re gonna play with THIS toy until we break it!&quot;), Joco came over and signed my ticket afterwards (insert fanboy squeal here)...

best. concert. evah.</description>

		<description>Fantastic show, I had a great time as usual, though this was the first time I haven&#039;t been near the front of the stage for a JoCo show. So many people, and everyone was so in to it.

I got videos of a couple songs. When You Go is still uploading, but &lt;a href=&quot;http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=GrM0gi2d7hM&quot; rel=&quot;nofollow&quot;&gt;First of May (plus the intro)&lt;/a&gt; is up now.</description>

		<description>Such a great show, loved it.  The crowd was infinitely more into things this time than at the first show.  Plus my midwife ass got me the first Moon Pie of the evening, I feel so honored.</description>

		<description>Hey guys, I just wanted to give everyone a fair warning, you really should wait for the first.  I was having a good time a couple nights ago (April 30th) with a lady friend of mine,  we stopped at a park, but found it was still far too cold.  The night turned into something of a letdown for both of us.

So to everyone I say, please fuck outside responsibly, wait for the first of may.</description>

		<description>Also, why does no one actually attempt a robot voice for the Chiron bit though?  Do they go up there intending to try one, but stagefright gets the better of them?  Or does no one care to try it?  It&#039;s fascinating.</description>

		<description>Now is it just me, but was the Mpls show a bit crazed?  (In a good way of course.)

I, for one, am impressed that Jonathan was able to complete a song he developed the giggles during.  He did his best and he succeeded.

Sorry gang, the &quot;Mayor of Dinkytown&quot; was in my party...  It really was a good scream, though.</description>

		<description>Awesome show tonight, and a distinct honor to hear 1st of May live ON the first of May.  This was the last opportunity to see JoCo before I leave the States for who knows how long, so I can&#039;t think of a better way to wrap everything up.

And yes, Jonathan DID do his best, and it was most definitely enough!</description>

Great show, JoCo.  Enjoy the Monkey!</description>

		<description>In lieu of being at the Minneapolis concert tonight, I sang First of May at karaoke.  

Would rather have been at the concert... but at least I made some people laugh!</description>

		<description>It&#039;s been running through my head all day... unfortunately, I&#039;m a middle school chorus teacher, so I ran a serious risk of accidentally singing it out loud... thank God it was only a half day today so I had the afternoon alone in my classroom to sing and whistle it while getting paperwork done.
Sadly, my husband and I haven&#039;t seen each other all day.</description>

		<description>Haha, this song came up quite a bit today. But unfortunately after being up all night and then going to the hospital with what turned out to be a false alarm thinking our son was making his debut, we spent the day resting. 

 Happy First of May all!!</description>

		<description>Complete letdown!  I made a point of eating lunch outside today expecting to see some flagrante delicto and witnessed nothing more exciting than some tuna salad being slowly masticated by some creepy accountant types (yeah, not that exciting).

Maybe May 2nd?

		<description>As a transplant from Minneapolis, I am kind of sad that I&#039;m no longer there to enjoy the First of May on the 1st of May.

Oh well.  I&#039;ve been humming the song all day, that will have to do.
