Politico enumerates the celebs in town for Jan 20:

Jessica Alba, Maroon 5, Samantha Ronson, Russell Simmons, T.I. LL Cool J, Oprah, rumored Chris Rock, Sting, Elvis Costello, rumored George Clooney, Il Divo, Rihanna, John Cusack, Tim Robbins, Brendan Fraser, Herbie Hancock, Lisa Marie Presley, Bradley Cooper, Susan Sarandon, Angela Bassett, and those Creative Coalition folks: Tim Daly and Tony Goldwyn, Anne Hathaway, Ron Howard, Spike Lee, Susan Sarandon, Kerry Washington, Dana Delany, Ellen Burstyn, Kate Walsh, Alan Cumming, Barry Levinson, Alfre Woodard, Josh Lucas, Matthew Modine, Richard Schiff, Connie Britton, Marcia Cross, Maura Tierney, Sue Kramer, Rachael Leigh Cook, Gloria Reuben, Wendie Malick, Adrian Grenier, Keshia Knight Pulliam, Phillip Bloch, Tom Cavanagh, Bradley Cooper, Hill Harper, Ashley Judd, Blair Underwood, Lynn Whitfield, Maggie Gyllenhaal, Peter Sarsgaard, Giancarlo Esposito, Kim Raver, Lawrence O’Donnell, Jane Krakowski, Tamara Tunie, Tom Fontana, Patricia Arquette, Amy Brenneman, Ed Harris, Amy Madigan, Brad Silberling.

I don’t recognize most of those names. But, I’ve wanted to meet Tim Robbins and Susan Sarandon for years. And seriously, Brendon Fraser, Herbie Hancock? Look, this is DC. We don’t get folks coming by this way all that often.

My plans are to go to the Netroots Nation party. Aside, from that we have a book signing with Mike Lux the Thursday after Inauguration. For me, that’s plenty.
