VP Debate 10/2 - Update

Disregard that last e-mail, sorry about that, looks like I misread the info.

I'll try to get one going for the Chicago Ale House on Thursday even if I can't make it out. There will be a confirmation later today.

VP Debate 10/2

Quick update,

There will not be an official DL watch party for the Palin Debacle, however there is the official unofficial DL watch party.

There's a debate party being held at Quenchers and the organizer Steve would like to extend the invitation to all DL people. It'll be held at Quenchers (Fullerton and Western).

Details are here: http://my.barackobama.com/page/event/detail/debatewatchparty/gshfqq

I'm really busy this week so I'm not sure if I'll make it out, but everyone should definitely head over there.

Cheers
Greg

Debate Watch Party - 9/26

Hey guys,

No meeting this Tuesday, instead we'll be watching the debate at the Chicago Ale House on Friday. Same deal as the convention speech. For anyone who was not at the speech party, the Chicago Ale House is at 2200 W Lawrence (corner of Leavitt and Lawrence). It's about 3 blocks from the Western Brown Line stop on the L.

The debate itself starts at 8, but I will be there by 7. We had a great crowd for Obama's speech, lets have another one for the debate.

Cheers
Greg

5 STARS - BROADWAY BABY

“Kilstein, is to me eerily reminiscent of Bill Hicks and not in the sense of an astute impersonation but as if we are witness to some sort of Second Coming. Eloquent intelligence, razor-sharp wit and unconventionally convincing arguments. Kilstein is a special talent and one that I feel privileged for having seen at this early stage of his career.

4 STARS THE SCOTSMAN - KATE COPSTICK

“This is beautifully, intelligently crafted stuff. Kilstein is possibly the most impressive writer/performer, I have seen – his set is so well written it could have a life apart from him and still be brilliant. Performed by him gives it an added oomph, but I have not been so aware of the writing quality of a comedy set this year.”

4 STARS CHORTLE -

“In this brisk, fluid hour he’s sharp, sarcastic and engaging, fearless in niggling his targets and knows how to write a joke to back up his incredulous indignation…as funny as it is audacious.

Meeting Tuesday 9/9

Sorry for the last minute e-mail, but we will be having our normal Tuesday meeting at Sheffield's.

The speech watch party was great, and I can't wait for the debates.

See you on Tuesday

Cheers
Greg
