Girl Talk / Dan Deacon – Live @ The Metro
January 28, 2008
I could write a lengthy review of the crazy, sweaty electronic dance-fest that was Saturday Night, but I’ll let the pictures do most of the talking. I was extremely happy to see a full set by Dan Deacon who was cut short at Pitchfork Fest last year, and Saturday brought even more of his eccentric behavior (including stretching to “What Is Love”, shouting out our top 10 favorite scenes from Jim Carey’s The Mask, and doing a gauntlet around the room). “Wham City” was played in it’s full glory and it was amazing.
The Girl Talk show started with a massive stage-rush as fans crowded around Greg Gillis to begin the dance. I didn’t quite make it up but I was close enough to get some amazing shots and have a lot of fun dancing to samples from the likes of Clipse, Ace of Base, Biggie, M.I.A., Tag Team, Smashing Pumpkins, and Kelly Clarkson. The best sample of the night had to be Journey’s “Faithfully” during the encore. Such an epic ending to a extremely bizzare and wonderful night.

I’m glad to see the kids are dressing like real people again…
wait, not.
Amazing show though. I wish i had more chances to get in a group of people and sing Wham City. Unfortunately that’s not culturally acceptable.

I got to hold the light during Wham City. If more people got to experience that, culture would accept orgies of song more readily.
