Bluesfest: Girl Talk

Folks love Girl Talk, a.k.a. mashup artists Greg Gillis. His set at last year's Bluesfest was an unexpected smash (well, unexpected to folks who hadn't heard of him - I was a bit surprised he was stuck over on the Hard Rock Stage). This year he was over on the Claridge Stage - and he brought his toilet paper with him!

Just where do you get an air-powered toilet paper tosser, anyway?



He also had crowd members dancing around on stage.



Incidentally, Gillis is the guy with the white headband on behind the monitors.



Well-papered action!



Dancing crowd members!



Gillis takes it off and gets on up!



And, er, that's it!
