JDub Records brings musical mazel tov to Southpaw for a night of humor, music, and, yes,
jelly doughnuts. Funnyman-about-town Michael Showalter riffs on everything from Jewish guilt to masturbatory iPod playlists, while headlining duo the LeeVees put their jokes to music, with songs like "How do you spell Channukkahh?" and "Applesauce vs Sour Cream." Local rapper/crooner Tim Fite snarls, shouts, and curses dark, countrified tunes, and the Balkan Beat Box DJs start the dance party, spinning rowdy gypsy-klezmer jams and funky "new mediterranio" beats. Tonight, we're all Chosen People. (LT)
Note: Jewltide returns to Southpaw tomorrow night, with genre-bending crate-digger
Socalled, Eastern European folky punks
Golem, and egg rolls.
