Ignore the Nay-thans, Decepticons and Ramekins--
It's time for FLANSBLOG 9000 from the buttery desk of John Flansburgh:

"Everyone here in TMBGland is happy to report there is a new member of the Beller crew in the world. His name is Noah and he is a healthy baby boy. Hence, Marty will not be on the next leg of the tour as his parental duties have to take priority. The very capable Frank Vilardi will be jumping onto the drum stool for the March leg, and we are looking forward to working with him again as he is, like Marty, a monster player. Marty will be returning to the drum thrown and to dazzle us all with his notorious performance of Alphabet Lost and Found at the very special show for kids in Atlanta.
JF"
