Dan Deacon, Simian Mobile Disco, Girl Talk @ Avalon, Boston 9.14.07



OK, A lineup like this, of course it should be a good time right? maybe if the place wasn't infested with button up striped shirt frat boys or douchey men trying to grind up on anything with tits, or college girls who for some reason believe this concert is a trashy euro club. I've never been to Boston before, but my friend informed me Boston is full of weirdos. Affirmative. Dan Deacon was of course great. Too bad that my friends and I were misinformed of the concert start time, so they all missed the set, beside me who saw about half of it. He always manages to make every show a great time and didn't fail here. The space was huge and Dan acknowledged this and there weren't that many people there for his set but it was still fun. He did do the same gauntlet that he did at HideOut the previous weekend in Chicago. People seemed to get really into prancing down the human made "gauntlet". Once Simian Mobile Disco got on stage, all the freaks and weirdos came out of nowhere. Dancing shitbags were in my way. I had to go all the way to the back to where it was less crowded and more room for me to enjoy the show. The set was really sweet. I think the large space helped with Simian's lights and such. The unnatural scene was a bit overwhelming that I decided it was time for me to get wasted and.... I never fail at that goal. Before I knew it, Girl Talk was on and I was drunk. I now thought it was necessary for me to make my way in to stage. Then, I had the time of my life dancing in center front row of the show and having everyone on the floor watch me make a fool out of myself. AWESOME! If I didn't get myself drunk, this concert would have probably not been up to par to what the lineup proposed. Girl Talk seems to be a great time. Gregg Gills has not failed me yet. Here's a video I found where you can sense the madness.
