Damn, damn, damn… I hate it when there’s an awesome event in town and I’m gonna miss out on it, not because I want to but because I’ve already made other plans that evening that I just can’t cancel or postpone anymore. Living busy can really stink sometimes.
But if you’re in the L.A. area and you got nothing to do on the night of January 13th, 2009, then you should consider watching Adam Sandler, Seth Rogen and the cast of Judd Apatow’s upcoming movie FUNNY PEOPLE live in person, they themselves will be there and if you’re lucky you might end up in the movie too. Unfortunately I can’t make it there, damn, damn, damn.
Via comingsoon.net, here’s the breakdown from Universal Pictures regarding the special event.
