He's been asked to do the Q&A with Buscemi but may decline. Buscemi's wife is from Columbus and his sister-in-law and her husband are involved with the charity. Now, the radio station web site says tickets are $25, the movie starts at 7:30pm and the reception starts at 10pm. I want to go.
The NaNoWriMo kickoff party is the same night from 6:30pm to 8:30pm. I guess I could stay for a half hour.
