"Our house musician is Jonathan Coulton!"
"Thou Jolt A Canon"
The Bellhouse/Hot Heel Blues, 2012[]
Best known for his singles, Re: Your Brains, Still Alive, and Want you Gone, Jonathan Coulton took up a new gig in 2012 when he became the 'One-Man House Band' for the NPR trivia show Ask Me Another. The show is an hour of word games, but one of the common style of games are musical games where Coulton plays classic songs that are re-written for the the game at hand. For example, from the game "We're Not Gonna Bake It" (based on the Twisted Sister's 'We're Not Gonna Take It")
We're not gonna bake it, no, we ain't gonna bake it. We're not gonna bake it anymore. We've got the right to hate this last Christmas when we ate this. It weighed a ton; it made us gag.
(The answer is Fruitcake)
Warehouse/A Hue Worse,Today[]
When Tyler and Bri Lepido returned from their honeymoon, no one was expecting them to come back with an artifact in tow.
They'd went to a live showing of Ask Me Another and Bri had picked up on the guitar's artifact energies and while she distracted the guitarist after the show, Tyler snagged it and replaced it.
Trivia/Air I TV[]

- Does not play well with 'Glee' artifacts
