Each week, the Joe's Pub staff untangles the calendar for you and highlights some of the shows that we're most excited for. Consider it Joe's Pub 101...or your very own personal music guru showing you this week's path to live-music enlightenment...or just a list that some music nerds put together...

Kevin's Pick
TAMMY FAYE STARLITE (May 6 at 9:30PM)
Tammy Faye Starlight- One of my all time favorite Joe’s Pub artists.  Tammy Faye signature song, “Did I Shave My Vagina for This” is a must have in all quality music collections and we sure need a little reform in this room which Tammy Faye always provides and than some!
Don't miss Tammy! Info / Tickets

Carlton's Pick
ELI "PAPERBOY" REED and the True Loves (May 8 at 11:30PM)
First of all he goes by "Paperboy", so he always deliver the good news...but seriously, Eli "Paperboy" Reed is an artist with tremendous style and power.  He has a throwback style that is filled with passion.  Eli "Paperboy" Reed and The True Loves is the show to catch if you are looking for a good time and if you're not afraid to participate by clapping and dancing along.
Don't miss Eli! Info / Tickets

Jo's Pick
CAPATHIA JENKINS/ LOUIS ROSEN One Ounce of Truth (May 12 at 7:00PM)
Capathia Jenkins' talent is a force that cuts through the barriers of the fourth wall deep into your soul and resonates within, moving you to smile. Her voice is clear, precise and powerful. As the role of the Washing Machine in the hit Broadway musical Caroline, or Change, Capathia delivered a majestic performance which made you think twice every time you went to do laundry – so I cannot wait to see what she does live at Joe’s!
Don't miss Capathia and Louis! Info / Tickets
