Do It Again

We were lucky enough to have Janet Macoska at the premiere. Here’s a picture of Lila before the screening and of Rob, me and Jim Henke at the post-film panel.

We’re off to Cleveland tonight with screenings Friday evening and Saturday afternoon. I’m taking Lila who, in my opinion, should have probably gone to Rotterdam. I mean, the kid’s not only in the movie, she shot a few seconds on the FLIP cam.

Now, she gets to check out the US premiere and visit the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame and Museum Friday morning. Lila went shopping with Carlene to get a special dress for Friday night. She keeps asking me if I want to see it and then, when I say “yes,” she refuses, telling me it’s a surprise.

Rob and I will be on a post-screening panel led by Rock Hall resident genius Jim Henke, a guy I know best as the writer who discovered U2 and the Police.

But first, to get everything off on the right note, I present a fantastic review running on-line now and tomorrow in the Cleveland Plain Dealer.

It’s well written, overwhelmingly positive and contains some perfectly blurbable lines. Now can somebody please nominate John Soeder for a Pulitzer Prize?
