    The Talking Heads were a great new wave band......David Byrne became too cool for school with his world music!

    This is great! Thanks for sharing. Always impressed when I see his live performances. He sounds great.

    Never did get into these guys. REM was always my preferred 80s "alt" band. They do have a faithful following though, which you know I can appreciate!

    I first discovered the THs in 1980...part of the new wave explosion.

    They didn't play L.A. too often, but I did get to see them when they filmed Stop Making Sense back in the mid-80s.

    I was also lucky enough to be in the pit for the American Utopia tour.

    I met Jerry Harrison backstage at the PJ Amsterdam show in 2012!
