No chance I’m missing out on this… I just noticed that Jon Stewart is performing here in Boston on Friday night!
Go buy tickets for the 7pm performance, and we’ll have dinner afterward at a nearby restaurant — any locals have suggestions?
Update: Oh maaaan. The booking agent called me to say that the 7pm performance had been overbooked (how the crap do they manage that?!) but that I could rebook for 10pm. So I’ll be seeing it at 10pm now. There are only a few tickets remaining for 10pm, and none for 7pm. Get in quick!

We’ll be there.
Montien Thai is really close to the Wang Center, and has good food served quickly. That’s always my stop before any event at the Wang. Alternatively, there’s Jacob Wirth (www.jacobwirth.com) nearby as well, which is a german beer-hall style restaurant - good food + a great beer selection.
What did you do to deserve panel 3 in this comic?

Crap. I won’t be getting there until Saturday morning. In the last few months I’ve had a penchant for missing great comedians (especially ones that don’t perform often).
My thoughts on Friday’s 7:00PM show (including a little constructive criticism for one of my heroes) is on my site:

of a 19:00 to 02:00 meeting, I had it easy: Our reviewers had already spent countless hours doing personal ratings of the 280 submissions we received; it’s pretty hard to get into a fist-fight about reviewer opinions over the phone; and I got to schlep off to see Jon Stewart halfway through. Leading up to the CFP close, we were pretty happy with the quality of submissions, but kinda disappointed with the quantity. It seemed like we wouldn’t even hit 150, so the review team decided they wanted to review every submission.
