David Foster Wallace, 46, a novelist, essayist, teacher and story writer whose effort to come to grips with the America of his time resulted in the huge and hugely successful novel "Infinite Jest," was found dead Friday at his home in Claremont, Calif.
Wallace's wife found that he had hanged himself when she returned home about 9:30 p.m., said Jackie Morales of the Claremont Police Department, the Associated Press reported.

although the site said tickets weren't needed for the events in the building where mackaye/moore was - tickets were needed and they were gone pretty quickly

I went without even knowing Moore and MacKaye would be there. Saw Thurson standing outside (in all black on a hot day) just talking to some friends.
Saw Marky Ramone driving around in an older Mercedes, wig and all.

Driving a car in NYC (much less a Benz) is so punk!

actually, the first thing it says on the website is: ALL EVENTS ARE FREE. EVENTS TAKING PLACE IN THE COURTROOM AND ST. FRANCIS AUDITORIUM REQUIRE TICKETS.
and then guess where it says the mackaye/moore event was located?
yep. st. francis.
