AT THE GREENBRIER – we just arrived back from lunch at the Mason Jar, and a bus load full of traveling reporters pulled up.

Everyone is trying to figure out where they're going to be inside to get a good shot.

Myself and WSLS photojournalist Greg Moore are setting up our camera and tripod on the red carpet now to claim a good spot.

AT THE GREENBRIER – A few celebrities have begun to show up.

I've seen Brooke Shields and Elliot Gould (who played Ross' dad on NBC's Friends) arrive.

Shields brought her two daughters, and walked by holding their hands.

It's pretty hectic here.  Workers at the Greenbrier are still putting some finishing touches on, ahead of tonight's opening.

Here's the full list of expected celebrities:
