The organizers of that joint L.A. Press Club-American Cinema Foundation event on Saturday night — the one with all the brouhaha over Charles Johnson of Little Green Footballs — have put out the word to RSVPers that unnamed guests won't be accomodated. The room only has so many seats, there's a waiting list, and to get past security names have to be on a list — so no "plus ones" and "twos" this time. They also ask that you email to free up your seat if you aren't going. End of public service announcement...

"Plus one" is OK if you RSVP'd that way, and a couple of people cleared "plus twos" with me a week or so ago, when we hadn't reached the limit. But some have RSVP'd "plus two" or even "plus three" without asking if that was OK. All I can say is, at this point there really is a waiting list, and I'm hoping everyone will get in, because of course some people who say they'll come don't actually show up. But it's probably wise not to bring along a posse.
Thanks for the public service announcement Kevin!
