Check It. Ryan Adams and Mandy Moore for 826LA.



Ryan Adams, who's probably my favorite musician, was a last minute addition to the recent 826LA charity event hosted by Judd Apatow and Dave Eggers. Adams and Mandy Moore (his wife) sang one of his best songs, Oh My Sweet Carolina, from his Heartbreaker album.

Here's an iPhone video someone took at rehearsal (and I found on Ryan Adams' facebook page). Enjoy!

Do It. Judd Apatow at Skylight Books.

You know Judd Apatow as the filmmaker behind some of recent times' funniest movies and TV shows -- Knocked Up, The 40-Year-Old Virgin, Freaks and Geeks -- but he also now happens to be an author.

Well, sort of. He's the editor of a new book called I Found This Funny: My Favorite Pieces of Humor and Some That Might Not Be Funny At All, in which he compiles different works from authors like F. Scott Fitzgerald and Jonathan Franzen and some non-authors like Conan O'Brien. Considering what he does for a living, I think Apatow is a pretty good judge for what's funny, and I'm sure this book will have some great moments.

But if you want some real Apatow action, catch him as he promotes the book tomorrow afternoon at Skylight. It'll be a fun way to start off your Halloween, and maybe some of his famous comedic buddies will be stopping by.

Judd Apatow will be appearing Sat., Oct. 30th at noon at Skylight Books, located at 1818 N. Vermont Ave. in Los Feliz.
