Kevin Smith at the Midland One-Day Pre-Sale

Director Kevin Smith spent most of Tuesday arguing back and forth on his Twitter page with Megan Phelps, part of the Westboro Baptist Church clan spawned by pastor Fred Phelps.

Not only did amusement come from the back and forth exchange (including Smith attempting to posit Wayne Gretzky as a possible savior — not the first time for that, by the way), but good news came from that exchange, as well.

Smith will doing one of his infamous Q & A’s at the Midland on Saturday, March 27. These have been known to go on for nigh-on five or six hours plus, and feature Smith telling stories, taking questions from the audience, and the like.

There’s a pre-sale going on today only, from 10 a.m. until 10 p.m. The place to buy tickets is right here. Use the password “CLERKS.” You can check out a clip from his Evening With Kevin Smith DVD below to get an idea of what you’ll be in for.
