40 Cities, 40 Parties For Girl Talk
The most excellent DJ slots another massive tour, this one starting in Cleveland during the first week of the new year.
Girl Talk, known to close friends and relatives as Gregg Gillis, has been a constant touring machine sine releasing Feed The Animals in June. He’s also brought plenty of sizzle along with his music-mixing talents, including fireworks closing shows in Houston and San Francisco and balloon drops in Chicago and New York.
The new tour begins at Cleveland’s House Of Blues Jan. 5; plays Columbus, Ohio, at the LC Pavilion Jan. 6 and Covington, Ky., at Madison Theatre Jan. 7. Other stops on his 40-city agenda include New Orleans (Jan. 10), Memphis (Jan. 17), Baltimore (Jan. 31); Philadelphia (Feb. 4); NYC (Feb. 24); Chicago (March 4); Minneapolis (March 8); Denver (March 11); Los Angeles (March 21) and Tempe, Ariz. (March 23).
