| − | * This show was the second stop (after the [[New York, NY: 2008-10-21|New York stop]] the previous night) of John Hodgman's book tour for the first release of his book, ''More Information Than You Require''.
| |
| − | * The show was held at the Coolidge Corner Theatre, an independent movie house where John Hodgman was employed in his youth; John stated that the show had to end in time for a 7:30 showing of [[Wikipedia:Vicky Cristina Barcelona|Vicky Cristina Barcelona]].
| |
| − | * The show ended with a mini-set of five songs, the first four of which were Jonathan Coulton originals.
| |
| − | * After the show, John and Jonathan signed books across the street at the Brookline Booksmith, the bookstore that sponsored the event.
| |
| − | * According to staff at the Brookline Booksmith, this was the only author visit in anyone's memory to have sold out the venue, with many people unable to obtain standby tickets.
