Emo Phillips must under house arrest in Downers Grove.

Hmph. I'm staying home and making cole slaw.

I went to the bakery just the other day
I said "Do you have a zwieback?"
He said "I always walk this way..."

Ohhhhhh,
I was walking down the street,
something caught my eye.......

...and dragged me fifteen feet.

I see neither details nor tickets- it just says "see you in 2009"

OK, so, uh, I'm wrong on that. Tickets should be at the Somerville Theater website (http://www.somervilletheatreonline.com/somerville/schedule/events.php), and details should be forthcoming on altcom.com.

Looks like tickets aren't on sale quite yet -- presale starts tomorrow morning at 10am.

What is the difference between a presale and a real sale of tickets?

PRESALE STARTS TOMORROW!!!

I don't know. It's just what the ticketing website said.

Thanks for the link!

Wow! That looks brilliant!

If I win the lottery in the next few days, I know what I'm getting with the money... :-)

Well, I'd get a ticket after I paid off my website hosting bill, and bought a new bottom bracket cassette for my broked bike, of course.

Can you tell that I prioritize serious work over fun?

Hmmmmm.

Two of the events at http://www.altcomfestival.com/schedule.php are listed as being in "The Theatre Screening Room". What and where is this venue?

For that matter, people who are unfamiliar with Somerville may not know where any of your venues are located, including The Burren and The Armory.

And I hope that whoever scheduled a Sunday 8 pm show into the Armory knows that it needs to be over by 10 pm. The page points people to http://www.artsatthearmory.com/ for tickets to that show, but I see no ticketing link on the Armory page.
