Megafaun:

• Performing with John Hodgman tonight in Durham
• Southeast tour starts tomorrow
• NPR World Cafe and WFUV Alternate Side sessions 

“Everybody: seriously, MEGAFAUN”
So tweeted John Hodgman back in March, when Megafaun was on the road with the Mountain Goats and just out of the studio where they made the album that would bathe us all in sunlight come September. The love continues between Megafaun and Hodgman, and the lucky people of Megafaun’s hometown of Durham will get to see them on stage together tonight. This special engagement, part of John Hodgman’s book tour, kicks off a string of Megafaun dates across the Southeast:
