By: Mar. 22, 2010

Some folks will be gathering Easter eggs or trying to finish that last box of matzah, butthose who are looking for a truly religious experience will be somewhere else entirely! On Sunday, April 4 th at 7PM, MEL & EL will headline JOE'S PUB with MEL & EL: SHE'S MY BITCH - THE CD RELEASE-A-PALOOZA featuring hilarious songs from their debut musical comedy album, SHE'S MY BITCH.

Created and performed by award-winning funny femmes Melanie Adelman and Ellie Dvorkin with composerPatrick Spencer Bodd, MEL & EL: SHE'S MY BITCH is a "musical Laverne & Shirley meets Sex & the City"with a lower shoe budget and a higher ratio of in-your-crotch comedy. Hailed as "outrageous" by The NewYork Times and "hilariously squirm-inducing" by the Village Voice, Mel & El will sing their classics (Fagnet, Anti-Bacterial Everything), bust out some new tunes (Potty Mouth, White Lady with a Black Baby), and puttheir CD in places no CD has ever been before.
