Totally in.

OH man. Awesome!

Noice!

YES! Wow.

I'm not a sketch writer, and thus have nothing prepared. Would there be a possibility to pay for auditing or watching? I don't want to derail or distract the class, but I would love to hear what he has to say.

Can I go ahead and reserve a spot without the link yet? I don't want to miss out.

While other 11 year olds were playing baseball & picking flowers in meadows THIS GUY was watching MTV's The State & subconsciously plotting what he was going to be doing the rest of his life.

Spots. Mega dittos. I understand he'll be performing at TNM, correct? That too, is awesmome.

I need the link to this to be posted quick, I'm definitely signing up.

bump
registration link added!

Signed up, I can't wait for this.





Now which sketch to bring?

Signed up. I'm just going to be watching and taking notes. I'm hoping that doesn't mess things up.

bumpee!
still some spots!
