How lucky are we that a band we actually enjoyed listening to in the 80s and 90s is now a favorite of our own kids? Yes, the duo who left us “Twistin’” in the wind in 1990 has fully entrenched itself in the kids’ music arena. As a follow-up to the Grammy-winning “Here Comes the 123s,” They Might Be Giants released the “Here Comes Science” animated DVD/CD last fall. And to top it off, John and John have even ventured in the world of children’s books with their recent picture book/DVD entitled “Kids Go!” If you’ve got the makings of a little couch potato in your house, then this is for you. As if these guys weren’t busy enough, they’re touring across the country this spring and summer. Here’s the rundown of where they’ll be performing:
