A message from John F.!
FACTORY SHOWROOM VINYL IS COMING

Hey everybody, fun times here in TMBGland. Just wrapping up listening to the test pressing of Factory Showroom which is sounding GREAT. What a solid album that was. Look for that coming soon!

ABOUT SAN FRANCISCO, SAN DIEGO, LOS ANGELES, PORTLAND, AND SEATTLE
We have just added more shows in 2027. Of course, they seem really far away, but that doesn’t mean that some aren’t gonna sell out soon.
We don’t expect to be adding shows if they do, but we don’t know exactly what is possible either. So it’s really up to you. If these shows are of interest, we would encourage you to commit now –– because as we come up on them, we have a hunch it’s going to get tight.

AUSTIN, HOUSTON, DALLAS, WASHINGTON DC,
MONTCLAIR and NEW HAVEN FOR NEW YEARS EVE
In just a few days, we’re gonna be in Texas. Less than 70 tickets remain for the second Austin show. Only one Dallas show still has tickets available and both Houston shows are sold out.
There’s only one DC show left and I will personally see to it that it is very, very different than any of the previous three. So if you want to see a really different show by the same band, going to the final celebratory night is a good choice.


PREPARE FOR JOY
DRINKY CROW SHOT GLASSES ARE ACTUALLY ON SALE
20% OFF AT
WWW.TMBGSHOP.COM
I want to point out that there is always stuff to celebrate, and whether it’s New Year’s Eve or the unexpected passing of a super-villain, what better way than to pound back some limoncello shots with these beautiful Drinky Crow/They Might Be Giants shot glasses?! Even better, right now they’re actually in stock and on sale. The “on sale" thing is nice, but it’s really the "in stock" part that surprises me, since it seems like for the last five years we would get a few hundred in stock, sell them out immediately, and then wait, staring out to the horizon for that slow boat to finally arrive with more. So get 'em before they’re gone again!
Add them to your cart and the discount will automatically happen when you checkout!

HERE COMES SOCIAL MEDIA STUFF
Hey—I wanna remind everybody that I am doing little things on TikTok, like “This Day in TMBG History" at FlansyFlans as well as going live at TMBGofficial on TikTok and on Instagram. Of course TMBGareOK on Tumblr keeps chugging along with your questions and magnificent covers, photos, GIFs, and artwork.

My aspirations of becoming an influencer might seem sad to people who have more useful goals, but I know I can make my dreams come true. I’m going to start taking photographs of my meals and collecting animatronic sculptures to make myself seem more interesting!
