Hi, I'm Do Let's Stop, certified nerd & silly internet person & enjoyer of Them.

All credit to my dad for introducing me to TMBG when I was 8 by playing Birdhouse to me. Both him and my uncle were and still are fans (runs in the family?). I rediscovered Them and by march-ish 2022 the hyperfixation kicked in and the rest is history. I've probably got at least 2 other people into TMBG, which I classify as a win.

I play clarinet and alto sax! I've had a go on bass clarinet, and it's very cool but very heavy! I can see why JL likes it. Maybe one day I'll get my hands on a 'Clippy' contra alto, so I can whack out that brilliant part in I Like Fun (Song). As for keyboard, I've never had lessons but I've learned about 25 They songs -just block chords w/melody just by referencing this site's very own helpful guitar tabs and listening to it and practicing a lot.

Fun fact, I submitted a picture of soup that I made while listening to the 2023 They Might Be Playing They Might Be Giants 12-hour marathon, prompting the KMSU people to talk about soup more in the 2024 one and getting over 100 more people into the Now I'm Eating Soup facebook group. Also, I'm a big fan of XTC , which They are partly responsible for getting me into.

See you at TMBPTMBG, the Roundhouse show, on here, or wherever, Do Let's Stop
