If you want to send an intro e-mail between us and your local venue or game store (which would be awesome – personal connections are the best!), you can copy/paste this link-embedded bio to spread the word:
The Doubleclicks perform delightfully geeky songs in a way only a pair of sisters can – using their cello, ukulele and sweet harmonies. Since hopping on to the scene in 2011 with a weekly new-song YouTube project and the music video for their Dungeons & Dragons love song – “This Fantasy World,” The Doubleclicks have headlined from Portland to Seattle and beyond, performing at w00tstock shows with Paul & Storm and Wil Wheaton, and entertaining audiences at pop culture, gaming and sci-fi conventions.
The duo’s first full-length album “Chainmail and Cello” (2012) intones the life and loves of the geek girl – with references to Velociraptors, Pride & Prejudice, Star Trek and Cthulu.
THANK YOU!
austin TX perhaps?
You’ve got to move Austin just a little bit closer to some Other Stuff.
We would love to have you in happenin’ Warwick, NY. House party or cool local venue can be arranged.
Sweet! We will probably be in the NY area for a few days (I think we have family there?) – so we should TOTALLY make this happen!!!
forwarded the email to my sister, drab jonsa, lil, Kathryn (Chicago), and Kathleen (Boston/Maine). If you want me to follow up more aggressively on any of that, let me know I’d be happy to.
No love for Madison, WI despite driving through it? It’s an awesome mini-Portland.
That *was* a silly omission, wasn’t it? I’ll add Madison to the list right now!
We live in Chicago and would LOVE to be able to see you when you’re in town.
Yay! Chicago is looking like it is definitely going to happen, thanks to some dedicated street-teamers. stay tuned!
would love to host/see y’all when in the DC area!
We will talk further on email!
Was going to reccomend Dave Fogel as a host but see he has already posted – but he may not have crash space – we are friends of Andy A & Karen (from indy) and have a guest room that you are welcome to
I live halfway between J and K on the Mississippi. Looks like you’re booked for those days but if you cross the bridge at mealtime and want to hang out, we’d be happy to feed you!
Thanks, Grahm!
i told laugh track matt to let you play in his bathroom on tinychat (in chicago). that will also be the perfect place to premiere your new cactus song which you hopefully already wrote. if this will not be happening, my understanding of the world is askew.
I have a vague memory of this cactus conversation. Does that help?
Why does everyone always ignore Missouri? There are at least 7 or 8 people here who would be extremely interested in seeing the Doubleclicks, especially in KC. Doesn’t really fit in the schedule, but Columbus doesn’t have any plans yet so it could be replaced with KC, MO.
Hi Jake:
Thanks so much for your comment! I had no idea there was KC contingent we should be serving!
I may be able to get you something for the 6th in the Quad Cities. House show or proper gig. I’ll look into some things and email you.
Cool! I like to communicate with “proper venues” myself – but let me know if you have venue ideas, can rally an audience or (better!) a house show venue!
I live in Dayton OH about an hour west of Columbus OH. I am a once and future Seamonkey and would gladly host you!
Awesome, Carrie! I will e-mail you!
Hi, Carrie!

Excited to see you’re coming to Madison. Wish I could remember the place where JoCo performed the first time he came to town. Nowadays he and Paul and Storm regularly perform at the Majestic, but I have no idea if the economics of it work for you. All I remember about that first place was being seated around tables (I think it’s a restaurant or at least a bar as well). Can’t wait for more information.

Please, please, please let me know if there’s anything I can do to help when you’re in Indianapolis.
Molly Lewis is the reason I went on JCCC1.
Andy: you can come to our show! And maybe help hang up posters/invite friends! Just stay tuned for the tour announcement :)
Cool. Also, if for any reason you need an alternate place to play, please give a shout. I’ve arranged a house concert before and have also arranged game demos at many of the local game stores.
… So you’re coming through Pittsburgh twice, and you’re not playing there? Try the Rex Theatre. JoCo and Frontalot play there a lot, and I’m sure it’s relatively cheap.
Hi Damian! We are working on this now! drop me an e-mail if you have suggestions! :)
