||•| GIRL TALK EXCLUSIVE|•||

Upon arrival, I think we all knew it was going to be a night of raw dance and damage. The Living Room in Providence, RI is appropriately nestled in between a gas station and a warehouse parking lot and my heart came alive like fireworks. Me, Bee, Ms. Sarah and Deb emerged through a doorway and entered a place reminiscent of grandma's basement, a frat house, a crack house and heaven stirred together in a cup. We get drinks, 9 parts vodka, no parts sprite so we shrug our shoulders and confront the stage. Dan Deacon was great. Mahi Mahi is difficult to review for many reasons. We were ravenous and impatient and doing our best to endure just 1 more song if it meant Girl Talk was right after, but they kept coming and we were sick of it. We coped by rediculing the monotonous melody to suit our needs. We painfully "Spent 20 minutes waiting for you..."


And finally, he graced us with his presence, and pissed us off immediately. He had the balls to tell us "Just 4 more minutes and I'll be back" We dealt with it, this is what we came for, this is all we've been excited about for the last 3 months. So we waited and once it began, the tight crowd rushed foward, people climbed over each other, people fell, people swarmed the stage, people danced and lost their shit like they usually do when he begins. Security tried to diminish some of this debacle, one of Sarah's sandals was gone, we inched towards one side of the stage to avoid being booted, I felt around for the steps for stability but plunged down to the ground instead. Bee pulled me up, I was all scratched up and bloodied. We needed more booze, we got off stage and the music is making the mess not matter. Deb triumphantly finds Sarah's sandal in the midst of the madness and we proceed to dance until our bodies are drained of sweat.

Sir Talk himself said he's happy to be back on the beast coast. He's had enough of the desert and the flakes and Wired magazine and martinis. We welcomed him home quite well, he had a great time, he did his Scentless Apprentice cover to prove it. We loved Providence, much kudos to you bad kids.

He really spiced it up with old stuff and new. Bitch Parade is pleased to share a squirt of the juice. Enjoy!!!
