The David Sedaris event was GREAT!26 Oct

Last Thursday, October 8th, Ed McKay’s was given the opportunity to sell books during An Evening With David Sedaris at War Memorial Stadium in Greensboro. It was delightful. In addition to being “shrewd,” “wickedly funny,” and “one of America’s most prickly and most delicious […] comic talents,” Mr. Sedaris is an exceptionally generous public speaker. For example, he likes to find independent bookstores to sell the merchandise at his events; that’s why we got to be there. Mr. Sedaris implored the audience to shop at Ed McKay’s, adding that he did so all the time. Additionally, Mr. Sedaris limited ticket sales to 1200 (the auditorium seats 2376) because he wanted to be able to talk to everybody. Which he did. For hours. And hours. And seemed to enjoy. In earnest.

If you weren’t able to go this time, please don’t despair. We have many new and autographed copies of each of his books and audiobooks available in Greensboro (we’re sorry we can’t accept trade credit for them since they are brand new). Perfect for the holidays. Come and get them while supplies last!
