Wish I could go! I can't go to events in the city that late because of the train schedules. Ug! One of these days I'm going to get a hotel room and just do all this fun stuff!

Sounds like a great show, if you can get off work the next day and pay for a hotel room.

Sorry about the late time on the week night. Partially it's due to the fact that Joe's Pub has become such a popular venue that you need to book 3-6 months in advance. So when I have a month to put something together, I have to take what's available. The other reason is, sometimes actors really want their day off...and for instance, Ashley Parker Angel plays at a space down in SoHo on Monday nights and won't be able to be with us until after 11:30.

But so you know, if you can make it, there will be lots of prizes and gifts for those attending - including free cupcake coupons for a bakery I'm about to open on the East side. :) Seriously...a bakery. you'll hear all about it. :)

Wow Jamie New additions

Are the "new additions" names being said
"out loud"?? I saw Marty Thomas Friday and he mentioned a possible duet with an surprise name to me.

So excited for many reasons.........

I have my tickets for tonight, and I'm very excited.

However, I've never been to Joe's Pub, and I have a question. How early do I need to get there for the show, and is it better to make a dinner/table reservation or will I be in standing room only if I don't have a reservation?

Thanks and looking forward to tonight!
