How to learn C# and ASP.NET MVC at the same time? [closed]

Question

My question is straight forward. I'm totally new to the Microsoft stack, I have experience in web programming using PHP and Django; and I'm very interested in learning ASP.NET MVC. Is there a way (tutorials, reference books.. what ever!) to learn the C# language AND ASP.NET MVC at the same time? I mean in the same introductory material (same book, same tutorial, same -your suggestion-? Time is an issue for me.

Thanks in advance ;-)

For an ASP.NET MVC introduction, definitely check out the NerdDinner tutorial:

http://nerddinnerbook.s3.amazonaws.com/Intro.htm

It does cover the basic concepts of Web development using ASP.NET MVC and the advantages of using the Model,View, Controller approach at a high level. However, you will want to learn the C# syntax before diving into it. I would suggest picking up a book that gives a nice introduction such as C# in a nutshell.
