Legendary mash-up DJ Girl Talk plays Orlando this week
Greg Gillis, better known as Girl Talk, is on tour and will make a stop in Orlando’s Beacham this Thursday. It’s been a long 14 years since he last played the City Beautiful, and the venue where he last performed, Club Firestone, is no longer Club Firestone. But Gillis is still Girl Talk.
“I feel like I’m still trying to tap into a similar energy to where it was 15 years ago. To me it’s like, I’m gonna go 100 percent from the start to the finish. … I hope people kind of wanna come with me on the ride,” says Gillis.
“I’ve seen it all from, you know, early days of playing to audiences who don’t care and you’re kind of like going to war with them, to playing shows where everyone’s there to have fun, and it’s this community celebration sort of vibe.”
