People Are Wrong!, Saturday, February 1st, at 7pm and 9:30pm at Joe's Pub at The Public Theater, 425 Lafayette Street (below Astor Pace) in New York City; further info at 212.539.8770 or joespub.com. MP3's of the show are available at PeopleAreWrong.net. From the TMBG newsletter:

People Are Wrong! is a manic and joyful celebration of melody and musical fable. Based on a true story, this original cautionary tale of a charismatic cult leader masquerading as a landscape artist in a rural upstate town is told entirely in song. Starring the brilliant downtown chanteur David Driver (Rent), John Flansburgh (They Might Be Giants), Maggie Moore (Hedwig) and Chris Anderson (Muckafurgason), People are Wrong! introduces the songwriting talents of Julia Greenberg and Robin Goldwasser to the musical stage. Backed up by the Loser’s Lounge band and the inspired vocal group STC (Sean Altman, Tricia Scotti and Connie Petruk), this is the first original production to come out of this highly creative team. Produced by John Flansburgh. The Losers Band for this performance is Joe McGinty (musical director, keyboards) Jeremy Chatzky (Musical director, bass) Clement Waldman III (drums) Chris Woolsey (guitar) Jon Spurney (guitar)

They Might Be Giants also does their Valentine's concert at Joe's Pub, February 14.
