We hear Dublin’s Comedy on Tuesdays has been off the chain.

Guitarist Paul Warren, who played with the Temptations at sweet 16 and toured with the likes of Tina Turner, Joe Cocker and Rod Stewart, has a big to-do coming up Saturday at Harvelle’s. The Santa Monica nightclub is recording Warren and his band the Wreckers live. We recommend an early arrival.... And such lovely lasses as Bridget Hall, Rose McGowan, Molly Sims and Carmen Electra were among the divas dishing at Del Taco last night for Glamour magazine’s Fashion Don’t bash held at the fast food eatery on Santa Monica Boulevard.
