    The MA signing is coming up fast! I received the email about questions today and I'm starting to get pretty excited.

    Earlier in the thread, it was mentioned that there are a few people with tips on how to pick out a signed copy if they let you choose. Would anyone be willing to PM me those tips? It's going to be my first SK book signing so to get a signed book would really be the icing on the cake.

    Cheers!

    A more accurate way to refer to the evening would be "author event".....as King will not be signing any books publicly.

    I would not worry too much about tips....you will most likely be herded out a door like cattle and a book will be stuffed in your hand as you go....meaning you are not going to have much say in the matter most likely.

    This made me laugh out loud Rick...very accurate!

    The Annandale-on-Hudson event is at the Fisher Center. My understanding from their webpage is that contains two separate theatres. The larger of which has a capacity of 800 seats. If so, that would enhance the odds of getting a signed book a bit over the combined capacity of both.

    Default Don Maitz to attend Sarasota Get Together and King Event!

    I just spoke with Don Maitz, and thanks to the very gracious help of a member here (they provided a ticket for him to the King event), Don has tenatively agreed to meet our group in Sarasota at our get together prior to the event, and also then go to the King event!

    Don will give me 100% confirmation on Wednesday 10/4/2017.

    This should be fun?



    Spoiler:
    I told you I would have something(s) cool for the get together!

    GOOD JOB JEROME.... Don always has great tales to share. KUDOs to the benefactor who provided ticket.

    I’m really hoping King keeps politics out of this tour and sticks to the writing side of things.

    Hearing about Trump's latest fuck-up certainly gets old. The solution being that he stop fucking up. I'm holding my breath.

    I expect some bands to make political comments. It is surprising from bands that don't have political music though.

    Sports fans have been paying for political commentary/propaganda for a while now.

    There is no non-political reason to play the National Anthem, or to fly military fighter planes, etc., at a football game.

    Looking forward to the Sarasota event! Since the seats are unassigned, I'm thinking of getting there early. Anyone else? It's not like I'm actually going to be able to concentrate on working anyway!

    So King is still using the line about the first thing that came to mind when he was pitched the idea about women disappearing is that there would be no one to fold laundry or clean toilets. Yikes. I even grimaced at that. The expression of the women recruited to be in the GMA audience behind him was priceless. Imagine if Trump had said that.

    This thread is about the tour. Of course observations can happen, but let's try to keep this more about the tour itself, and less about political strutting.
    There are other threads for that.
