Girl Talk! Girl Talk! (2 LA shows w/ Dan Deacon)

I can't wait till September 28th! Mark your calendars because - Hell Ya! & the Echo present 2 back to back GIRL TALK shows! (one early show, one late - late is already SOLD OUT)

Gregg Gillis (aka Girl Talk) has come along way since his first LA show @ the Echo.
He finally quit his day job (up until recently, he worked in pittsburgh as a biomedical engineer!!)
Now he's busy selling out shows, remixing bands with his new side project TREY TOLD EM, and even taking meetings with State Congressmen!
(Newsweek journalist Steven Levy and Congressman Mike Doyle flew to Pittsburgh to meet up with Girl Talk - read the story HERE)

He was featured in PLAYGIRL (no he's not naked - just topless plus an interview!) click HERE to see the photo spread . . . I mean, er, read the story!

Way to go GREGG! He's putting PITTSBURGH on the map!
