MEN WITH BALLS NOTE: Aside from the 11/6 Varsity Letters reading with Buzz Bissinger in NYC, I’ll also be holding a reading in the DC area on Wednesday, 11/12, at the Tyson’s Corner Borders store. And we can all go out drinking somewhere afterwards, because why the fuck not. So come get your book signed AND sit in America’s worst traffic bottleneck! Why, it’s a win-win!

Why not just hold it on the darkside of the moon?

Drew, what time is the Tysons Corner reading?
Bitch bitch bitch Tysons bitch bitch even Leitch had his downtown bitch bitch. I’m guessing the same publisher who wouldn’t pay for Drew’s book tour also forced him to do his reading at Tysons instead of somewhere downtown where bars are more plentiful. That’s the only explanation I can think of to rationalize why he’s dragging us out to fucking Vienna on a week night.
ill probably show up at 10 for the drink specials and dance party!
And yes, I’ll sign and return any copy you mail to me.
that’s pretty cool. i wish i knew that before i started it. would you sign any other books we send in?

“Doors open at 7:30.
Readings start at 8 sharp.
FREE!
“
edit, sorry what time is the thing at varsity letters from when to when?
where are you going out for drinks on thursday the 6th in the city?
After Party at the food court!
I have gotten 6 dirty looks reading the book on the train and one gay guy tried to hit on me.
Considering I’ve been reading it for three days already, I am a little dissapointed
I got mine in the mail a week ago and read it in about two commutes to the city. I think if I see you at varsity letters i’m going to have you sign it right on the penis pictures. That is to say pictures of my penis that i will hide in the book as a little surprise for you. I want you to autograph them.

@Big Skinny: No, she meant that they had Men With Balls waiting for you down at the store. Big, hairy, sweaty Men With Balls.
Oh. Well then!
She said they had a copy in stock and waiting for me
@Big Skinny: The book won’t be in stores until Monday
I just called my local Borders to see if they had a copy. I gave Drew’s last name and the woman asked me if I was “looking for Men With Balls?” Now I have to go down there after work and tell the cashier I am looking for Men With Balls. Thanks Drew.
Tyson’s? Come on. I mean, Simmons even made it to the ESPN Zone in DC. Do you want that D-Bag showing you up?
Will you be offended when I call you a banana-eating shitpuff in front of dozens of strangers because your book has a soccer ball on the cover?
I have a keg of Busch Light on my back porch and sexually liberal female friends, that is if you’re willing to make a Boston reading happen.

No, because the publisher refuses to pay for it.
Doesn’t your publisher realize that very few people will actually buy the book for “reading’s” sake? We’re all looking for that personal contact – the kind where we can each personally share an over-long conversation with you about nothing really that fades abruptly to the awkward silence. Then someone will say, “hey, how about pancakes,” and then you’re on the hook for another 4-5 hours. I mean, fuck, $11.55?
I guess Drew’s taking a break from his Freeway Rest Stop Book Tour.
@Rocco – Ralph Wilson is currently in talks to have Drew’s Buffalo stop moved to Toronto.
Will you be doing an national book tour?
No, because the publisher refuses to pay for it.

And yes, I’ll sign and return any copy you mail to me.
So I’ll be sure to book a flight just to come get you drunk.
Would I get at least a free copy of the book then? How about a free face/ass towel? Or soap?
I promise to spoon afterwards.
Driving from DC to Tysons pisses the shit out of me.
If I mail you a copy of your book AND a near-mint to mint bill featuring George Washington, can you please sign it for me? If not, can you please spit in it and throw it in the garbage, simply because an unsigned book is useless to a fancy man like me.
I hear Buffalo is nice this time of year. No rush hour traffic to worry about here. Everyone moved to NC.
Will you be doing an national book tour? Not all of us live within driving distance of Tyson’s Corner, by which I mean Vienna or Falls Church, if your book signing is scheduled anytime during rush hour (3-8 pm in the DC area).
