Tina Fey and Steve Martin fill the Nokia Theatre

There were something like 5,000 people at the Nokia on Tuesday night to watch Tina Fey and Steve Martin mix and match wits. And after a few hiccups — a lot of people still outside in line at the 8 o'clock call time, and Fey deciding to just hold her lav mic because of all the noise it was picking up — the crowd left happy and convinced more than ever of the two performers' genius. There must have been hundreds in line to get Fey's autograph on "Bossypants" when I left, and even pregnant she hung in and signed. The event put on by Live Talks L.A. benefited KPCC and KCET. Carolyn Kellogg of the L.A. Times posted a quick account at Jacket Copy.
