On March 5, 2010, They Might Be Giants again performed at the Variety Playhouse in Atlanta, Georgia. As with their previous engagements there in September of 2004 and May of 2006, they were joined on stage this time by Puppet Homestar Runner, who sang "Tropical Lazor Beams" and a version of "With a Little Help from My Friends".
According to at least one of the uploaded videos information, the band asked the audience to film Homestar and post it online in hopes of making a compilation video from the footage.
