Thursday, July 24 – Commodore Ballroom, Vancouver

Pittsburgh, Pa., DJ Gregg Gillis, better known as Girl Talk, brought the party to the Commodore Ballroom in Vancouver on Thursday, July 24. The highly-anticipated event was sold out weeks in advance, and it was thanks to our friends over at Sealed with a Kiss that two of us ‘Beez got in.

A long line was formed outside the venue by 10 p.m., and inside, openers Twin Crystals were makin’ a whole lotta racket that the crowd flooding in didn’t seem to be feelin’. I don’t mean to be a hater, but the thrash guitar, almost screamo sounds of Twin Crystals just didn’t seem to be a good lead up to the pop/ hip-hop/ electro vibe of Girl Talk. Luckily, after the band’s question, “So, do you guys want to hear another song?” was met with a significant amount of boos, Twin Crystals left the stage, and a local DJ spun some cool and relaxed reggae beats that got the hipsters out onto the dance floor.

Girl Talk set up promptly. Nothing fancy – just his basic DJ equipment on a single table, and started the show at 11 p.m. The crowd went absolutely wild as he shouted, “What’s up, Vancouver? So glad so many of you came out on a Thursday!” and threw on T.I.’s “What You Know About That.”

Some new tunes for your ears. New Nina Sky featuring Rick Ross. Definitely been waiting for a minute to hear something from these ladies. Next up is a rough recording of a Common track featuring Pharrell called “Gladiator”. The song actually sounds pretty dope even in the rough format. The “Lollipop” remix from Alan Astor is pretty crazy as well, it’s a more upbeat electro feel to it.

Some random cities around the globe are about to get some love this summer from none other than Girl Talk. The Pittsburgh based DJ is taking his fresh mixes to stops like Seattle, Chicago, Aspen, Stockholm, Sweden, and Vancouver, B.C. And wherever Girl Talk is at, there’s bound to be a rockin, sweaty party.

I’m super stoked for his show comin’ up in Vancouver, presented by Sealed with a Kiss, at the Commodore Ballroom. Last time Girl Talk was here, it was all about non-stop dancin’. Couldn’t even take a break off my feet to chill with a drink! So, I have no doubt that he’s gonna bring another crazy event to the city.

If you need a little more convincing, check out Girl Talk’s MySpace page. He always keeps it fresh and uploads new mixes to listen to. I’m feelin “Set It Off,” mixin’ Jay-Z with Radiohead. Brilliant. Also love “Play Your Part Pt. 2,” mixin’ together Lil’ Wayne with Red Hot Chili Peppers. Both are also on his newest album, Feed the Animals, so cop that up too.

The lineup by itself is reason to go but from my first hand experience of Nadastrom’s debut in Philly, I can tell you that this is definitely NOT the party to miss. To put you in the right mood, click the link below to hear their remix of Lil’ Wayne’s “A Millie”. Halfway through the song you’ll see why these 2 dudes are destined for super star status.
