Contest winners and others who managed to get themselves on the guestlist were treated to a free show by Violens and Girl Talk at Hiro Ballroom in NYC last night (5/28). Hiro isn't the smallest venue, but it's much, much smaller than where Greg Gillis played the last three times he was in NYC. More pictures from the show, below...

"So obvious: This Brooklyn Vegan post sponsored by Canon."
Ha. When I saw the pictures, I knew someone was going to say that. These are literally the pictures Paul came back with. I mean, it was a Canon party, so there was lots of Canon in the house.
