Episode 61 – A Live Show!

America- so we’ve been performing live.
It’s the kind of show your parents wouldn’t be embarrassed to see, so there’s that.
But don’t think it’s a baby show.
‘Cause it’s definitely not.
This show is not for babies.
How do you know? James Austin Johnson is our most excellent guest star.
And he stopped doing baby shows in June of ’98.

Some Thank Yous

We were excited to premiere our new show, “How To Like Yourself” last night at Bongo Java in Nashville.

This is something we’ve been working on for close to 2 years now, so it was wonderful to perform it for someone other than our pets. However, this show wouldn’t be nearly as cool without the help from:

1. Emory Colvin, Director

An experienced actress and director, Emory used all her superpowers to turn us from two crazy girls into two crazy girls who were ready to put on a comedy show. She also knows how to handle a projector like it’s her job, because it is sometimes.

 

 

 

 

 

2. Seth Worley, Video Producer

A big thanks to Seth Worley for filming and editing all of the videos you see in How To Like Yourself (with the help of the wonderful, Matt Hail). Without which, audiences would have no break from coveting our awesome on-stage outfits.

 

3. Micah Lanier, Graphic Designer

Micah is not only a talented graphic designer, but also confident enough to google images in Starbucks of shirtless men for our show. Why would we ever need that? You’ll have to come see How To Like Yourself to find out. 99.9 % of all graphics seen in the show were made by Micah. 0.01% were made by Erin and MeLissa. It’s pretty obvious which is which.

 

 

 

 

In addition, we need to thank Matt Hail for some pretty serious last minute editing // Jeff Venable, Daniel Hobbs and Josh Gabbard for our poster photos taken on a cold, rainy night in an empty church // Adam Dye for his technical assistance // Rob Martin and our precious Bongo Java Lauren who braved the crowds to take tickets and get the room ready for a show // Dennis Worley and the Brentwood staff for hosting our first dress rehearsal // all our friends for loving us enough to come see a show at 10:00 PM // the nerdy kids we were in elementary and middle school, who’s love of cartoons and propensity for wetting the bed made us the women we are today.

It’s Time.


We are excited to announce the debut of our very first stage show:

How To Like Yourself – A Comedy Show

starring us and our very funny friend, Mary J. Berger.
Bring 12 friends with you.
Talk about it with your online community.
Casually mention to our parents that we’re actually doing something legitimate with our time.

And what is this all about?
If you’ve ever looked at yourself in the mirror and thought, “hey, self- we might not be living up to our fullest potential / eww”, this show is for you. Leading experts in liking themselves, Erin McGown and MeLissa Luna, lead this highly informative and chuckle-worthy hour-long seminar that will make you want to give them more than the $5 they are requesting for the ticket price.

Space is limited, so reserve your tickets HERE.

Dear Conan, Part II

Conan.
There’s a chance you’re thinking “this can’t be real! These girls couldn’t possibly have all their hope and dreams centered around sitting next to me on a soundstage.” And the truth is- that IS all we want.
We’re counting on La Bamba as our recommendation.
We aren’t afraid to bring Jack White into this thing.
Or Barack*.

*We have no association with Barack Obama to date.

 

Dear Conan

Dear Conan-
Maybe you’re sitting in your office thinking “I’ve got a fever.”
Well, consider us your cow bell.
We’re the Shirley to your Laverne.
We’re the Singled Out to your Mtv programming.
We’re the Juliet to your Gnomeo.
It’s true.
Don’t believe us? Ask La Bamba.
(Really. Ask him.)

Love,
Erin and MeLissa
