Bonnaroo 2007 boogie inducing DJ Girl Talk will hit the road this summer with another conventional instrument shy button pusher, one Dan Deacon. The duo, apparently exercising the same train of thought as Arcade Fire and LCD Soundsystem, will join forces in Chicago July 14, break-up for one month until Baltimore’s Virgin Festival Aug. 4, again separate and then finally kick it off properly Sept. 12 in Toronto. From there, the two will hit New York, Philadelphia, Atlanta, and California outposts like Los Angeles and San Francisco.
