To preface, my friend Sophie's uncle is a figure in the Minneapolis music scene, and was performing the incidental music for Wits at the Fitzgerald Theater. He does this periodically, and is a pretty regular performer in the show. A while back, he told Sophie's mom (his sister) that Neil Gaiman was going to be a guest on the show, and would they ( Read more... )

Dude, the way he apologized for it was so cute, it was like he had forgotten about it and was actually concerned.

The show itself was outstanding--I wasn't aware that there would be more people attending than Gaiman himself, so imagine my delighted surprise when not only did Josh Ritter make an appearance, but Mike Nelson and Kevin Murphy of Mystery Science Theater 3000 fame were seated in a box, making Waldorf and Statler-esque commentary at Gaiman and Ritter's opinions on which dead celebrity had been which type of monster (apparently Thomas Edison was an elf, who was killed by Ritter's great-granddad. Also, ia ia Emily Dickinson, or should I say, O Great One). On top of this, there were two live phone calls during the show, one from Adam Savage of Mythbusters, and the other from Wil Wheaton, aka Wesley Crusher.

Oh my God this show sounds amazing. BUT THEN IT GETS BETTER.

ffffff kiss on the cheek from Neil Gaiman you lucky dog. You and your friends are all so talented (and hardworking obvs. to get that talented and stay that way). Congrats!

DUDE SERIOUSLY, it was like double-take after double-take and by the end we were just scraping our jaws off the floor.

Aww, thanks dude! I'll pass on the congratulations, too--I have such talented friends, it's ridiculous. o___o
