Mr. Stewart Comes to Santa Barbara

Big scoop, my loyal reader(s)--members of the Arts & Lectures big donor Producers Circle learned this weekend what the rest of us poorer folks will want to know, too. Jon Stewart is coming to Santa Barbara. He will do some sort of Evening with... at UC Santa Barbara's Events center on Saturday, November 18. Tickets go on sale to the general public starting next Sunday through Ticketmaster and be sure to sit down when you think about buying your seats, as the rumor has it the cheapest non-student ticket will be $70.

Still, Stewart doesn't like to fly, and is only out here because he has a big LA appearance the night before with Antonio Villaraigosa for the Geffen Playhouse.
