Radio Silence
Hey folks. Sorry about the inactivity here. I had friends in town and had very little time to update this page. (Though lots of interesting bits coming soon. Promise.)

The tourists wanted to do the NBC studio tour over at Rockefeller Center, which turned out to be an overpriced commercial for the network. The cool part though, was sitting in the bleacher seats in the Saturday Night Live studio. The tour guides gave us the low-down on the ticket acquisition: You are more likely to be struck by lightening a couple times, win the lottery and cure cancer than get a ticket to SNL. It's all about who you know. Every August, you're supposed to send in a postcard requesting a ticket (which I actually did a couple years ago.) Of the million or so postcards they get, each week the NBC folks select about 20 for free tickets. All other tickets go to cast members, NBC executives and the like for distribution to friends.

However, I did find out how to get primo Lion King tickets. Stay tuned.
