you decide if this is me agreeing or disagreeing.
ugh what the fuck was that. i guess it's just since i read interviews and haven't actually seen any VIDEOS...
Predictably, the audience was more excited to hear hits than especially clever transitions and selections. Notorious B.I.G.'s "Hypnotize" incited dancing and more: nipples hardened, girls made out, and Gillis clung to his Dell in the middle of the Bacchanal. "Around the World" led into his only bad transition, but he smiled through it and wiped his lips with his tie, his joke-to-jerk-to-stud transition complete.
Gillis dove into the crowd during a show-closing (and truly awful) cover of Nirvana's "Scentless Apprentice", the only song with live vocals. He clambered onstage, and after a congenial "Thanks, you poseurs!" he skipped away. Pumped up and ripped off is a dizzying combination, so it was hard to tell whether I had a good time, or even if I was supposed to have a good time. One of the most ambitious dancers left the Mercury Lounge wearing discarded pieces of Gillis' stage outfit. So there was a response to at least one of Girl Talk's taunts: No, Gregg, you got ripped off.
heh, that's right, pitchfork.
“I’ve seen people having sex on stage. Doing legitimate drugs on stage. Last fall was the first time someone had sex at a show that I saw.”
ugh i can't find the interview i read, but from what i did read it looked pretty intense so i THOUGHT they'd be fun
