Girl Talk @ The Pageant 1/18/2011

How much noise can one man and a laptop make? As it turns out, enough to get a sold-out Pageant crowd moving, shaking, and begging for more.

Blonde Redhead brought their brand of moody pop/rock to The Pageant on Monday night, wowing the audience with layers of sound and dreamy incandescent bulbs. German electronic musician and producer Pantha du Prince opened the night, bathed in blue light and swimming in manipulated sounds.
