…and all she got was a lousy t-shirt.
Well, not lousy; it is a perfectly serviceable shirt with a perfectly serviceable picture of Avril Lavigne on it. But it is not by any stretch a concert, and that is because there was none. The concert was canceled due to laryngitis. So although she wound up spending a perfectly decent weekend with her mother, she still shlepped two thousand miles for a non-event. And since she thought she was going to see Lavigne in Arizona, we made no effort to see her locally.
So Avril Lavigne, if you happen to be reading this, try and swing by Long Island next time, okay?

The Iron Man Premiere
Since I knew I was going to be in LA during the week that Iron Man opened, I checked with my contacts at Marvel West to see if I could go to a screening. They came through.
What I didn’t realize was that this wasn’t simply an employee screening, as we have in New York. This was the formal premiere. We’re talking red carpet, banks of reporters, and a reception for cast and crew.
