Following confirmation we can now add to the roster of events for the spaced invasion the following;

 The final stop on the tour is the Late Show with David Letterman where Simon will be a guest on Monday, July 28.

There is a small addition to the Austin Marathon screening also;

The Spaced Numb-A-Thon: A marathon screening of all 14 episodes of Spaced, including a Q&A with Simon, Jessica and Edgar moderated by Ain’t It Cool’s Harry Knowles at the Alamo Drafthouse Ritz.

Wow, they called it ‘The Spaced Numb-A-Thon’ - I’ve always wanted to go to one of AICN’s Butt-Numb-A-Thons.
