Mr. Shaiman, Can I carry yours and Scott's bags and you can take me to Chicago with you? I need a break, I need a vacation...

In the words of Britney Spears, "Oops, I did it again..."
I can see Rob and Craig right now. Now back to the topic at hand. If anyone goes to this gig, please post a review. Thank you.

Mister Matt- You must give Mr. Shaiman a big kiss (without tongue or Scott will get mad) and tell him Phantom2 said hi. When you get home, please post a review.

Does size matter?

Speaking of the size of Gentry...........yes it's an intimate place. However, the cast will not be taking up the seats in the cabaret room. Those seats are being sold. The night is more than likely going to be videotaped with a 3 camera shot and pro sound. In addition to the videotaping, there will be a video feed of the show in all the rooms/bars within the club for those who couldn't buy a seat in the cabaret room.

Very high tech. You can watch Mr. Shaiman on the monitor!

re: re: Does size matter?

The press release mantions nothing about buying seats. "No cover/2 drink minimum", if this is not right let us know if we can buy tickets to the seats in advance, that would greatly improve my chances of going.
PEACE.

Buying seats

You are absolutely correct about that. That information will be on the next set of advertising/posters. However, seats are available to purchase. Currently, the best way to do it is call the club and speak to Eric McCool, the General Manager. He can be reached at 312-836-0933. There is NO COVER/DRINK MINIMUM. This event is raising money only by donation, silent auction, raffle and seat sales.
