Here are the details again:

Saturday, September 13 – Los Angeles - 7:00pm
NOTE: This event will NOT include an autographing. No memorabilia please. There will be pre-signed, movie-tie-in-versions of CHOKE (signed by Chuck only) as well as pre-signed, selected backlist available for sale at the event.
Borders event with Chuck Palahniuk, Clark Gregg and Sam Rockwell – CHOKE panel discussion
Discussion and Q&A
Borders Books & Music
NO SIGNING

We are trying to turn this into a Cult meet-up, so if anyone has any suggestions for a good bar we can end up at after the event -- preferably within walking distance -- please leave a comment below.

Also, some people have requested to know what I look like so you can spot me before or after the event. So here's my MySpace page: http://www.myspace.com/denniswidmyer

Hopefully see some of you there!

I'll be there for sure. Probably get there around 5:30 or 6, as I have books to buy...

I'm still waiting to find out if my roommate is planning on attending so I have a ride. If I don't make it, I hope someone has the forethought to bring a camera.

Does anyone know if there would be additional Choke Panel Discussions in other major cities?

The discussion in LA was awesome, though it would've been nice to have more time for Q&A. Chuck then spent all day Sunday signing books and memorabilia at a bookstore in Burbank. I found out last minute, not sure why it wasn't posted on this site. In true Chuck fashion, it was AWESOME! He took time to talk to everyone that came through the line, was gracious enough to sign and personalize virtually everything, had props from the movie to take pictures with, etc. Really, really cool. There's no other author or celebrity PERIOD who takes time with the fans like Chuck does. Can't wait for the PYGMY tour!
