ATTN: Brenda Starr!

[Simon Bar Sinister]

Drew Barrymore, who's just directed a film about roller derby called "Whip It" that filmed in the Detroit area, is hosting a skating party at Bonaventure in FH this Friday, September 11 to promote said film.

That movie was filmed on our street. ... It was an interesting experience.

Dang, I work that night!

Word is the event is free. Doors at 3:00, doors close at 3:30 - no latecomers allowed. And while they're letting 955 people in, it's thought that waaaay more than that will be lined up, so apparently it's recommended to line up early in the day if you want in. I won't be going myself, but a friend is very excited for it. Good luck to everyone who wants to go!!

Yeah, I saw that a few days ago in the paper. I'm surprised Brenda hasn't been all over this.

Wasn't even aware of the shooting. Would this be the 1st roller derby film since Unholy Rollers?
