Title: Impromptu LA FOT Mother's Day meetup
Post by: Shaggy 2 Grote on May 11, 2008, 03:45:39 PM
Hey all,

So I still have to call John Junk and Susannah, but I'm in LA for a few days, and there's been some talk of going to UCB tonight to check out some comedy.  I'm afraid to put my cell phone number on the internet, so I guess PM me, or if you have those guyses (or Jouster's) numbers, give 'em a call.

Hope to meet some of you later.

Grote

 That's funny, because I'm not afraid to put your cell phone number on the internet.

Official!  Join us at 7:30 PM at Birds (next to UCB) and then afterwards for Jeff Garlin's Combo Platter.

It was a Grote/Susannah/Junk low-key impromptu meet-up with a special guest appearance by Jouster.  It changed my life.

I was PAing a Bollywood style music video for this Indian singer. It was nuts, we would've been done much earlier but the guy was a super prima donna and insisted on doing the same shot with 5 different costume changes. also, he over heard one of the background dancers was clowning on him and refused to finish the video until this guy was kicked off set.

From what I've heard, this is almost exactly what went down at the LA FOT Mother's Day meetup. I won't name names.
