PITTSBURGH — The last time Girl Talk rocked Pittsburgh, Joe Biden was the vice president, Donald Trump had yet to come down the escalator, and a coronavirus, for all people knew, was something that happened to your computer.
The Pittsburgh artist also known as Gregg Gillis was ringing in 2015 at Stage AE, the North Shore venue he had christened five years prior, with one of his ecstatic sets of mashups and the full gamut of festive New Year's Eve frills.
Earlier that year, he made his main stage Coachella debut, joined by a slate of rappers including Too Short, Juicy J, Busta Rhymes, Waka Flocka Flame and Freeway, with whom had released the EP "Broken Ankles."
