Band members: Dave Barry, Amy Tan, Scott Turow, Mitch Albom, Matt Groening (Simpsons creator), Roy Blount, Jr., Carl Hiassen, and special guests Frank McCourt and Richard Belzer. (Members of the Remainders who weren't there: James McBride and Stephen King.)<BR/><BR/>You can watch some of the authors in the C-Span archives.
