I’ve been jealous of Girl Talk, a.k.a. DJ/producer Gregg Gillis, ever since the first time I saw him perform. Somehow, using just a couple of laptaps, some confetti and balloons and a few well-timed fist pumps, he turned a packed club into a completely crazed dance party, with women by the dozen cramming themselves on stage to get near the manic sample jockey. Who would have thought the ability to mix a few disparate songs together in a way that makes sense (something radio deejays once did, back in the olden days, simply as part of their jobs) would somehow turn a former medical engineer into a new-style pop star? His most recent album, Feed the Animals, landed on several critics’ year-end Top 10 lists for 2008. Pioneer Park, 350 S. 300 West, 7 p.m., Free
