I, sadly, will likely be unable to attend ConGlomeration 2010, my local science fiction, despite serving as the con's webmaster. As such, I leave my fellow ConGlommers with this suggested soundtrack, which may set the appropriate geekish tone in my absence. Enjoy.



The playlist includes:
  1. "Hail to the Geek" by The Deaf Pedestrians
  2. "White & Nerdy" by Weird Al Yankovic
  3. "Captain Kirk" by Bob Schneider
  4. "A Cloak of Elvenkind" by Marcy Playground
  5. "Wizard Needs Food Badly" by Five Iron Frenzy
  6. "The Geeks Get The Girls" by American Hi-Fi
  7. "A Glorious Dawn (Carl Sagan with Stephen Hawking)" by Symphony of Science
  8. "Saturday Morning" by The Eels
  9. "It Is Pitch Dark" by MC Frontalot
  10. "Nrrrd Grrrl" by MC Chris
  11. "Do You Wanna Date My Avatar?" by The Guild
  12. "Skullcrusher Mountain" by Jonathan Coulton
  13. "In the Garage" by Weezer
  14. "Everyday Superhero" by Smashmouth
  15. "She Make It So" by Warp 11
