New Girl Talk CD Out Now -- Name Your Price. Also, Another Rocker Tased

• George Clinton is spinning in his grave...

• "Do not neglect your booty, or your mind will suffer!" xoxo true that

• Folks, this one's for the booty! Not your mind! Your booty! Listen to your booty! Obey your booty! Do not neglect your booty, or your mind will suffer!

• matt, i totally know what you're saying. i love me some girl talk but (especially live) shit is often going by too fast for me to really get into it. i think it's a generational difference in attention spans, cause everyone younger than me is allll about it, i'm down but randomly annoyed, and your old ass can't hang. at that last girl talk show i was all "shit! quit switching it up so fast! i didn't finish my safety dance and already i've got to come on eileen! damn! and quit tasing me, bro!" being old is no fun.

• if eric hall let me post any of his mash-ups on this blog ,i would do that in a heartbeat and he would become a superstar. his sets as DJ Lil Baby Mama Reba McEntire are inspired.

• Girl Talk makes me feel like an old square rock dude. I get that there's a skill in what he's doing. I get that if I was at a club I'd probably be into it (I once heard a guy slip some Slint beats into a hip-hop set & thought it was brilliant), but I just don't see how there's any real insight. He's not adding anything to what was already there. If anything, he's dumbing it down. It's like he's just throwing in a million pop culture references & you're just supposed to like it because you recognize them. Give me Eric Hall's "99 Problems/99 Luftballoons" mash up any day of the week. Compared to that, Girl Talk is just a guy with ADD & some expensive beat matching software. 'Course I'm just an old square rock dude.

• 1st listen - Pure Genius!!!

• just when i thought i'd heard it all.... Moby with "Throw Some D's", Rod Stewart and "Sexy Can I?" ... yeah, Girl Talk.

• Gotta luv Flo's "Low" ("Apple bottom jeans and them boots with the fur") over the Cardigans "Love Fool"

• k take that back: the fergie over footloose beat, with the random salt n pepa exclamation straight into the beastie boys' whatcha want is my jam.
