Ben, Matt... and Brad?

Matt Damon and Ben Affleck hit the town in Los Angeles Tuesday night, but the Boston homeboys were in a Massachusetts state of mind.

The pair is excited that their home city of Boston is holding the Democratic convention. "It's a great chance for people to get a chance to visit," Affleck said. "I think the traffic will be a little worse than usual, but it should be a lot of fun and it should be interesting."

"Extra" caught up with the gentlemen as they toasted season three of their hit TV show, "Project Greenlight." Damon said he looked and felt good. The star is staying busy shooting "Ocean's 12" with George Clooney and Brad Pitt, while also promoting his new flick, "The Bourne Supremacy."

And Ben's riding high, since recently becoming an uncle after his younger brother Casey had a baby boy. Tuesday night was one of Affleck’s first public appearances since that serious health scare last month. "I had bronchitis and they thought I had an infection, so I had to get a spinal tap, " he explained. "And that spinal tap leaked so that was really bad."

But good health aside, Ben wasn't feeling the usual love from his long-time best friend. Matt revealed his affinity for Brad Pitt on "The Tonight Show," and that didn’t sit too well with Ben. "It gets between our relationship, I won't lie to you," Affleck joked. "It's caused problems. I'm still really upset that [Matt] picked Pitt over me."
