 So my favorite author is giving a public talk right in my neighborhood. Now I just have to find out how to go about accessing a seat and then convincing hubby—who is not as much of a fan, but likes him anyway—that he really wants to spend a Tuesday night in Washington, DC (something he absolutely hates).

Awesome! I hope you're able to go!

Did you know Whoopi is doing Xanadu the entire month of August on Broadway?

Thank you. I hope that I do get to go. I saw him twice on his radio show, one concert, and now a talk. This would be awesome. If I can't get Brian, I am sure that I can get one or both of my girl friends who like him as well.

I didn't know that about Whoopi. I hope that the thickets are nto very high. The show Frankenstein is charging $450.00 per orchetra seat.

$450?? Why the hell is it so expensive??

I have no idea why so expensive. I was watching a talk show on PBS about theatre and they announced this tidbit. The producer said that they are keeping the price of the tickets, since people are buying them. I wouldn't.

Interesting. I didn't know the National Cathedral ran a lecture series. I signed up for their email updates, since it seems like they get some interesting people.

I didn't either. I learned this tidbit from someone who lives in Texas.

You two should go together.

Why, oh, why did this have to be Sept 29 and not the 28th, when I'd still be in town!!

Oh, I was hoping that you would be in town. Could you extend it? Then we could go together.

I don't have the money to pay for changing my ticket. Not to mention, I really wouldn't have the money for a ticket to see GK.

Date: 2008-07-29 04:45 pm (UTC)
From: [identity profile] spicedogs.livejournal.com
I believe the ticket is free.

Can you make absolutely sure? I just checked on my airline reservations and I can change my ticket, as of right now, anyway, without any additional costs! But... I would need to make sure I can stay where I'm staying an extra day. The only thing is, if I leave on Monday, my parents were going to take me to the airport. By leaving a day later, I lose my ride.

You can even stay with me and I'll take you to the airport. (Of course, you can't be afraid of dogs.)

Date: 2008-07-29 05:01 pm (UTC)
From: [identity profile] katje0711.livejournal.com
I'm not afraid of dogs. Would I need to leave by a certain time? I just need to know what time to change my ticket to. Also, are you absolutely sure GK tix are free? And can you reserve them to guarantee we have them?

Date: 2008-07-29 05:06 pm (UTC)
From: [identity profile] spicedogs.livejournal.com
I sent them an e-mail requesting information. Let me call them.

Date: 2008-07-29 05:07 pm (UTC)
From: [identity profile] katje0711.livejournal.com
Okay. I'll wait for your reply. Wow. I can't believe I can change my ticket with no extra cost and I might get to see and meet GK! This is awesome!

Date: 2008-07-29 05:10 pm (UTC)

This may end up being tres awesome.

Keeping my fingers crossed. Once you find out about the tix, I'll ask Julie if she wants to go, too.

I called them and had to leave a message. They said that they return calls within 24 hours. Let's sit tight till tomorrow.

From: [identity profile] katje0711.livejournal.com
Gah! I just hope the ticket situation doesn't change before then!

Date: 2008-07-29 05:23 pm (UTC)
From: [identity profile] spicedogs.livejournal.com
It shouldn't by tomorrow.
