i cannot believe they are even in a room together. this feels like some parallel universe
I'm shocked
You have to notice that Tina and David are sitting as far away as possible. To me, the tensio is palpable, but that they're in the same room is promising. Reunion tour?
@@damianbiondo812 Nonsense
not at all. Tina is famously hostile toward David@@pattyayers
And you may ask yourself, "Well- how did I GET here?"
To the person who numbered the interview parts: Thank you, you are doing god's work 🖖
Now we just need links to those parts.
Finally after all these years :)
It's only 5+ years since I first mentioned to them they should do it. I don't think ANYONE at the Colbert show reads any of these comments.
Also, it'll probably be a one-off. Wait till tomorrow, you'll see them unnumbered again I bet.
Amen to that 🙏🏻
One of their better interviews because Colbert actively includes Jerry, Chris and Tina. Well done.
And they all have something to say. They all contributed to the energy of the band in the studio and live. David's songs for the most part represented the sensibility of the band. But it's not like he went on to have a fabulous solo career. Jerry's "the quiet one", but playing with the Modern Lovers is certainly worth mentioning.
David looks like he would rather be somewhere else.
Yeah, maybe doing his best to not irritate the others but not really sure how to just be 1/4 of the interviewees.
@@MrChopsticktechDavid looks as present as the others. At one point he was smiling and clapping
@@MrChopsticktech That laugh of his at 5:11 seems genuine, and he tells stories about the early days. I wish I had seen the fire-eater show in Pgh!!!
I think Talking Heads saved my life. Was a depressed 15 year old growing up in farm country in 1977... where I lived music was all about country/bluegrass rock which I liked and still do but as a person I didn't see how I fit in there. An older 19 year old girl I knew gave me her Talking Heads 77 album because she said she didn't like it but thought maybe I would because I was kind of "different". She was correct I loved it and imagined there was so much more out there and one day may find people just like me. Ended up going to art school and moving to NYC which is where I still live. The first time I heard Speaking in Tongues I was with three friends and we took lsd with that album on repeat all day. Many years ago I had an exciting new york moment of talking with Tina and Chris at an after party. David signed my copy of his book from the film True Stories. Talking Heads will top the playlist at my wake.
Greatest band ever
Excellent encounter….you will never prolly associate with me….but if you would then you’re a good friend o’ mine
Awesome story. Missouri here, but it was Patti Smith's Horses, so I'm probably a couple years older. Good on you.
relax buddy you're fine
Bit dramatic
I really appreciate how David is working so hard not to talk over or dominate the rest of the band; a historical source of friction for the group. He is literally sitting on his hands to contain his exuberance, positioned down at the end and dressed in a color seemingly designed to camouflage him against the backdrop of the couch.
I think you're reading into the suit/couch a bit much lol
@@strangepretty7991 I'm mostly being silly, but if anyone was going to micromanage their own staging and costume as a means of dealing with interpersonal tension, it would totally be David. Even if he was doing so subconsciously.
Correct, they needed this" Chris and Tina" did. Jerry has nothing to say and neither does David . Barely a Talking Heads interview
its hard being an original genius
They really hate him
"I am absolutely levitating right now!" - yes, I am too and for good reason! Thank you for bringing such an iconic band!
I'd be honored if some Talking Heads fans would take a listen to my acoustic piano & vocal RUclips performance of THIS MUST BE THE PLACE (re-interpreted as a ballad) in tribute to one of the most unique & iconic bands of the late 70s/early 80s era. Live acoustic with no autotune or digital editing. Peace and stay safe.
I love how Tina came out doing her crab walk 😂
How the hell did they secure ALL of the members of this extraordinary band?! This was wonderful!!
None of them are busy at the moment and Stop Making Sense has be remastered and re-released? I'm sure there is more to it, their appearance is not the average talk show stop. I love that Stephen can be such a fanboy and still be respectful and professional. :) You're right, of course, that the band members have famously NOT done for 40 years exactly what they're doing tonight. Paradigm shift?
It's called a promotional tour.
Probably just realizing they have a legacy thats bigger than their individual lives which are not going to last forever.
This is amazing. I'm so thrilled to see them share a stage together once again
I'm shocked
I honestly never thought this would happen!
@@jennylynnem.4218
Stay tuned! Next week, special guests Creedence Clearwater Revival bury the hatchet! Will it be in their feuding? Or in each other's heads?
Why? What happened?
@@screwyootube1 I heard they're bringing Tom Fogerty back from the dead especially for that episode.
Stop Making Sense is a great concert and a shout out to the touring musicians who joined the band on that one
"we'd like to thank our crew" - David Byrne
The two backup singer / dancer gals were the only ones able to keep up with Byrne's frantic energy throughout, and still sound fantastic despite being obviously exhausted. Fantastic performance.
RIP Bernie Worrell
@@FunkThompson I don't know, Steve Scales (percussion) and Alex Weir (guitar) didn't do too bad. Bernie W. was stuck behind the keyboards - plus he was nearly 40 (considerably older than the rest of the band), and not accustomed to running about.
@@BaribrotzerRight, not knocking anyone else, just pointing out an impressive feat. It's... questionable if they were similarly coke-powered as Byrne, or just 20-something and invincible :D
Not just the greatest concert film of all time, but the greatest rock concert of all time. I went to this concert in New Orleans, 1983. No other concert I've ever attended even comes close. Everyone was dancing up front, in the aisles, on their seats. Just a standout memory.
That would be for me "The Last Waltz" with The Band and some director you might have heard of. Martin Scorsese.
Three generations here still watch Stop Making Sense at random intervals and, and it never fails to make us pay attention. This time capsule film is a treasure.
At this one Caustic Resin show there was this spontaneous slow-motion mosh pit that instead of being violent was more like ballet.
rock?
Try telling that to the Swifties. The Eras tour movie just made over a billion dollars at the box office, and a lot of the critics say that it is the best concert film ever made.
Is it just me or is Tina an absolute gem of delivery timing? Her gift goes beyond the bass.
Plus she was insanely hot when she was younger
@@soloar2007yes what an amazing achievement
She really is I love her
Stop Making Sense
@@thesystem4025these is people should stop objectify woman. Woman are not "hot". You are not "hot". Hey get it through your thick skull
Once in a Lifetime has been my personal anthem for more than 40 years, Thank you TH.
It was the beginning of a whole new world for me.
THIS. I always put it on when I get ready for going out with friends :D
I'm a caver and we love the lyrics of that song, with suggestions of "water flowing underground". There's a cave passage under Mammoth Cave National Park (in one of the myriad small caves inside the park) I discovered with another TH fan, called "Same as It Ever Was," a 40 foot deep canyon with a torrent of water flowing through it. The drain of the canyon remains unexplored.
For me, it's a toss-up between Psycho Killer & Life During Wartime. 🤘🏻💀🤘🏻
Ssssssame as it ever was 😎
David Byrne, the best thing ever made in Dumbarton
Dimbledore?
The Cutty Sark is a very nice boat
@@Xxxxxrrr6464A town in Scotland
Via Ireland
Funny thing is that he lived in the Baltimore area before moving to NY. There’s a Middle School around here name Dumbarton.
The last seven days were really something: We got a new Rolling Stones album, an announcement for a final Beatles song AND an appearance of all four Talking Heads at the „Late Show“. I love all of these bands and that really was one of the most exciting weeks for me in my entire life from a musical perspective. I‘m 20 and I never thought that one of these events would ever happen, now they‘ve all happened in just one week, that’s insane😀
Like any new bands? 🤔
Also In Utero 30th anniversary box set.
@@evanwright9016are there any new bands that make actually novel music worth listening to? I see mostly a whole lot of people doing the same things musically that has been happening for the last 30 years. There are a few interesting solo musicians and every now and then an interesting pop performer... but really, honestly, what interesting bands are there?
@@evanwright9016 Yeah, it’s a shame that we’re endlessly watching music from 40-60 years ago.
You have impeccable taste...
I love that they seem to be friendly again. One of my all time favorite hands and my favorite concert movie. So sweet of David to sit furthest away and give the rest of them time to shine
Yeah, dunno if they planned it that way or not but I think it worked out better.
To some people it might seem like a big deal, but I'll take any sign of improved relationships regardless of who's involved, que of the country and world.
Elvis Costello and Talking Heads were my rescue from the mind numbing summer of ‘76 radio… Thank you!!
I appreciate your comments, but take exception to your characterization of 1976 music.
@@rayeckert242 You're opinion is, at best, irritating and, at worst, trivial, unwelcome nonsense.
Perhaps you mean '77? (Both Elvis' and Talking Heads' first records were released in 1977.)
Stop playing with yourself and fantasizing . THERE WAS no talking heads music in 76, Nothing on the radio for several years.,
Surely one of the greatest bands in rock history. Unparalleled creativity, energy, uniqueness and imagination. So much so that they ran away and hid from their peers, forever unreachable.
Reading Chris' book now. Great story of this seminal, wonderful band. Chris and Tina - what a love story - to take this ride together. Amazing. Jerry joining... incredible. And David - warts and all, what a great artist. They all are. Being in a band is tough, and these guys have their war stories. Wonderful to see them together as everyone would agree. One of the greatest of all time. Shout out to Tom Tom Club too!
Such a great book....enjoy!
I bet "Genius Of Love' has made more money than any of the TH songs. It's being used in about 3 commercials currently, on top of all the other times it's been sampled, etc.
I've been so lucky to see Tom Tom Club at glastonbury, they were incredible. Wow. ( its the closest I'll ever be to seeing talking heads of course :) )
Great to see them all well after the car crash in 22.
Love love love the Tom Tom Club
This is amazing, not only because they are all together again, enjoying each other's company, but also because, for the first time, the Talking Heads have become, literally, talking heads!
I wouldn't say they were "enjoying" each other's company but they were certainly civil with each other.
What I would pay to see Talking heads live in Concert ..ground breaking legends 🙏
They should go to the Sphere in Vegas next year.
@@eweb4949 Ooooh, brilliant concept ~ among the few who deserve that expansive canvas ~ BUT it's doubtful that David would endure his former rhythm section. More likely with my ol' pal Angie etc., from their recent tour. 😎
14:30 Talking Heads & XTC: If I were in the audience, I think my brain might have exploded.
Totally agree…brain to bratwurst in a second.
I believe it was an Andy Partridge quip that gave TH the title of their second album. Being from Swindon like XTC, I saw both bands there.
HELL YEAH, TWO OF THE BEST BAND IN THE WORLD
Talking Heads and B 52's. Best show ever.
David Byrne,One of my favorite members of the American Folk Art Museum. I would run into him at the openings and the weekend art shows. Wonderful human being besides being a legendary musician.
I saw a lot of bands during that time but I missed Talking Heads😭😭😭😭. What a fantastic band. Remain in Light is as good as it gets in any era of music.
Remain in Light is phenomenal.
I saw fewer bands than I should have in that time but i did see talking heads in 1983
(Oops! Meant to hit Reply not the thumbs down icon.) Saw them in 1978 on the UCLA Steps. As I recall, they all wore green t-shirts.
Talking Heads at the PNE Forum in April 1978 in Vancouver. Top of their game.
Remain in Light will always be their timeless masterpiece!!!
I saw the re-release a few weeks ago. Nothing like it has ever or will ever be made again. A community is created right before us. It’s an ecstatic experience.
And these four seem to be relishing their time together right now. The chemistry between them is genuine. Good to see all the members of a great band coming back together and not looking awkward with each other.
it's a put on.
@@drssexy2142 Probably but it's still a fun interview
One of the very first albums I bought when I was maybe 13 was a cassette of Stop Making Sense. Live albums are often not very interesting, but this transcends them all. The live versions on Stop Making Sense are the definitive versions of those songs, at least in my ears.
Let's give some love to the late Jonathon Demme, who brilliantly directed "Stop Making Sense".
Will never forget hearing their version of Take Me to the River for the first time...legends.
Thanks to Tina, Jerry, Chris, and David for this. The frankness of everyone and the gushing of Stephen..... pure nostalgic joy.
Having been to a lot of concerts and having seen a lot of concert films I would endorse: "the Greatest Concert Film of all time."
I’m old and remember when the Talking Heads were playing club bars in lower Manhattan. So I have to overrule “The Greatest Concert Of All Time” with “The Last Waltz”. It really is the best concert/movie ever and will remain that way.
Never mind me - I’m old! 😂
@@annenelson5656 I wondered if someone would name that. I'd list it as number 2, and I am a big Bill Graham/ Winterland fan. But don't mind me. 🤣
@@archstanton_live Nah, I agree totally!
@@SunGodPortal Cool - vinyl?
I still have Clash Sandisda vinyl!
Ooh " Rattle & Hum " for me
It’s so cute how excited Stephen is ❤
I would be the same.
Legendary in my book
more like cringey
@@drssexy2142how?
@@drssexy2142🤡
this must be the place is one of my favorites songs of all time, i always cry listening to it
'Stop Making Sense' was such a joy to see on IMAX. I was too young to see it when it first came out, so being able to see it now was just so special.
incredible! Nice to see them together.
Forever relevant, the Talking Heads. I have not stopped listening to them and David Byrne. Love pi
It makes me happy to see them all together again! They were so important to me through high school and college and I still play their songs all the time. It was a good time in music.
My teen years in Dublin would not have been the same without this band. No one else i knew liked them much but to me they were just a different world of music, lyrics and performance. They also introduced me to so much other music - Eno, African rhythms, Adrian Belew and Fripp etc.. It would be nice to see a live gig, I could never afford to travel to see them.
Talking Heads, mid 80’s Wembley Arena about row 12 from the front. An awesome concert - I will treasure it forever.
Goodness Stephen is so happyyyy 😭😭
The concert tour came to Montreals Olympic Stadium. They were part of a four-act concert. Opening act was Stevie Ray Vaughn, followed by Peter Tosh, then the Talking Heads, and the Police. We wouldn't let the Talking Heads leave. They played encore after encore. Police roadies cut them off mid song. Never forget the opening: a boom box on a stool with the opening riff of Burning Down the House playing, and each member walked onto stage, took up their instrument, and played.
"There is water...at the bottom of the ocean."
So many great lyrics...great songs.
My favorite band of all time!! Genius!!
Great interview. They seem like they're really enjoying the opportunity to reminisce.
I cannot get over seeing the four of them in the same room. I never thought that would happen again in my lifetime.
Once in a lifetime
From a head trauma injury as a young child I ended up with a very fractured relationship to music. Unusual for me to catch onto music groups on my own..but I sure did with Talking Heads..they broke through my vagueness and I listened to their music continuously. And I managed to earn a degree from art school in that time..a real achievement. I still work creatively every day. Thank you!!
Yes, Stop Making Sense is fantastic, but this band touched the sky in their performances between 1978-80. The footage featuring Adrian Belew is blistering.
What a lovely bunch of people they are, especially Chris and Tina, I wanted the interview to go on forever.
I'm very happy to see them all getting along so well. Life is too short to hold grudges.
John Illsley, the bassist of Dire Straits, talks a lot about Talking Heads in his autobiography. Dire Straits did their first ever tour with them and they were close friends.
One of the greatest musical acts of all time
You all are still loved!
Numbered parts in the video title? Well done. Big quality of life improvement right there.
God I love Tina. As a bass player she is so inspirational to me. Seeing RUclips videos of her playing live all those years ago. How cool she looked, how much fun she was having, how much groove she could create with a few simple notes.
….How hot she looked….
Saw them six times, one of the all time greats. Their sound was there own.
I am 69 years old and have loved the Talking Heads since they became popular. A long time ago I went with a date to the Enzian theater in Orlando, Fl and saw 'Stop Making Sense'. Great movie.
David Byrne is a musical genius in my opinion.
Thanks for having this awesome band on!!!
That's where I first saw it, my fuzzy memory tells me it's in Winter Park but the internet says Maitland. We also saw the Laurie Anderson concert movie there too
@@mrJimCharles Yes, Winter Park.
Thank you Stephen for engaging all of the band members in the interview. Other hosts would have just focused on David Byrne. Talking Heads was a most talented band with everyone contributing to its unique and unparalleled sound and not just the singer.
And what is cool about David is even if he wouldn't have been included it would be no big deal to him.
@@flickwtchr Feels like he would had drawn more attention not being there than he does sitting there but not talking much like he did here. Nice interview.
One of the absolute best bands ever! And David Byrne is completely amazing!
The Talking Heads always made me feel comfortable in my own skin. 🎶💜
Somehow, i totally get what you mean in relation to their music. Thats a very intelligent comment.
I am in absolute love with Talking Heads. Jerry Harrison is such a sweetie!
Jerry Harrison is underrated especially as a solo artist.
3:22 I was at that concert in Charlottesville! October 1983, the Stop Making Sense tour. I was 14, couldn’t believe they had come to my hometown, and the whole experience felt like the coolest thing to ever hit the universe. (and yes, we were all high. No judgment! it was the 80s, people!).
this summer I was clearing my (sorely missed, feisty and wonderful) mother’s house and found the ticket stub. Yep, i kept it. Iconic memories.
That’s so cool that you were there and found the old ticket stub. I saw U2 in October 1987, and I wish I had my ticket stub.
I'm just as blown away as Stephen was, to me this is unthinkable. I'm only 25 and I'm from Brazil, and my love for the Talking Heads begun with Psycho Killer because my dad would play it and I just thought it was the funniest music ever to sing with him in the car FAFAFAFAFAFAFAFAFAFA hahaha so many memories and my band obsession till this day! I'm just so happy to see them all well and together celebrating this masterpiece that is Stop Making Sense, feels so good to be alive !!!!! ❤🔥❤🔥
They're all diamonds, Tina always a treasure.
Chris is such a funny, articulate person. So lovely to hear him talk about his time in the band ^.^
No way Stephen & the writing team forgot Fleetwood Mac's Rumors came out in 1977 as well
There were lots of omissions, because that was a time overflowing with incredible music. He was mostly naming bands that put out there first album in '77. Fleetwood Mac was in it's 3rd or 4th incarnation by then...
I'm 56 and growing up with all that music was a blessing .
Television too that year I think
@@kingoftheseamusic Yes! That's got to be the biggest snub from this list considering it was their debut album.
I love Tina Weymouth. What a legend! Does not get enough credit as a true trailblazer in the post punk era of great music. Talking Heads are all time greats. So original!
Naive Melody will play at my funeral. Thank you for trying to get them to play together Stephen!
When _Stop Making Sense_ first came out I was working at the Castro Theatre (“San Francisco’s Landmark Movie Palace”), and because I was an employee, my friend Donna and I were allowed up in the balcony (generally left closed and roped off so as to not have too much work [and thereby overtime] for the janitors), and we both danced through the entire movie. Fun times…
What an experience!!! I love that theater!
I used to work graveyard shift in San Francisco. One morning, I was transferring busses at Market near Castro, and spotted a dumpster in front of the theater. Inside, there was a pile of theater seat iron arm rests -- they were doing a remodel. I swiped one of them.
@@simonagree4070
There are still some of those old, old ones up in the upper balcony, because the seats up there haven’t lost their will to hold people up, but I think the other reason is that people, overall, are heftier than they were in the 1920s.
Castro fabulous! Don’t forget Cliffs hardware 🤣
@@lorettanericcio-bohlman567
After my friends and the cultural opportunities that SF has to offer, what I miss most is Cliff’s, which I always refer to as “The Home of All Good Things.” Also, snagging a slice at Marcello’s.
Stephen is so happy, nervous and overexcited 😂
Talking Heads did a free concert at UC Berkeley on 27 November 1978, where I first saw them. Started around 11am on campus. A minute or two before the show started the crowd was suddenly abuzz with the news that Mayor Moscone and Harvey Milk had just been shot dead at City Hall. We were all kinda freaking out and David Byrne walked onstage with his guitar and began Psycho Killer. It was a ligthbulb moment and that evening the streets were full of marchers and police cars were burning in front of City Hall.
This band saved my life, listening to them was the only good thing I can remember about being a kid.
Wild Wild Life is probably THE most underrated song of all time. I cannot get enough of the Talking Heads.
Yes! I loved that song! When I was young, and there were no computers, I listened to this song and wrote down the lyrics after hearing again and again on the radio. Warm memories!
I would agree with you, but Life During Wartime and Flowers exist. All 3 are incredible, and as respected as Talking Heads are, they'll never get all the recognition they deserve.
Great interview for all of us over 50!
I was 14 in 1975. We were so lucky to grow up during an era with so many outstanding artists…. No computers in the 70-80’s. We took our stereo/turntable set ups seriously back then!
Yes, yes, yes! So grateful for the great music experiences and comparative simplicity of those times.
Yup the good old days.
1977 was unbelievable.
I saw Talking Heads play on the back of a flat bed trailer in the campus of UC Berkeley.
I saw Elvis Costello and the Attractions live on campus.
Both David Byrne and Elvis were just kids, like me.
It was incredible.
Saw them at UC, too!
Probably tops Stephen's most favorite guests list Respect
This is a real event. Incredible band.Love this❤️
I have tears of joy just watching them walk onto the ES stage.
get a grip
Remain In Light changed my my life
Stephen and Talking Heads: I also missed one of your concerts in the early eighties on Long Island. But I was there. And I was very high. And I slept through the entire concert. That is something I have always regretted, and will always regret for the rest of my life. Thank you for making such great music for the world. If you ever get back together, I would definitely come to your concert and I will definitely not get high and fall asleep again.
Absolutely, jaw droppingly joyous and wonderful to see them together, to hear them interact and answer all the questions we all had. Brilliantly done, by a true fan too. LOVED it!
Tina Weymouth is the best. Her bass was crazy.
There are no real words to describe how amazing and cool all 4 of them are. So I won't try but THANK YOU for having them on. What a crowd of GENIUS !! Really incredible to hear their stories. More impressive that (some of them) remember it all.
Agree - artistic genius!
I listen to the talking heads every morning SO happy to see them together!!! my absolute favorite band!!!!
Talking Heads was THE music of my childhood and Stop Making Sense was always playing in the car. The intro alone brought me to tears.
What a joy to see this. Stop Making Sense is a benchmark against which all other live performance movies can be held, and they all fall short.
I absolutely love how all four members of Talking Heads are getting together for interviews like this. The more they do, the more comfortable they'll get being around each other. Maybe it will inspire David to write and record new songs and a new album with the other 3 which could in turn inspire a tour.
That is the dream, would love to see & hear a combination of the song styles from Naked & True Stories with the Latin/South American/Caribbean style from David's early solo albums & Natalie Merchant on guest vocals
I want to believe... I want to believe... perhaps a recording, but I suspect the old chemistry has changed sufficiently that prospect is iffy at best. Touring? Eh, we can wish but I don't see them reuniting for a tour at this point in their individual careers and lives. They don't need it, commercially or artistically. I think we're seeing the closest thing to a reunion as we're likely to see. I'd love to be wrong.
That would be awesome. I got to see The Tom Tom Club back in the day with The Ramones. It was called the Escape from New York tour. Would love to see a reunited Talking Heads! 👍
David could probably work with Jerry again, but too much baggage with Chris & Tina.
I'm a huge fan, but I hope there isn't a reunion. They've been there done that.
Music Royalty.
When Tina says, "We got gobbed a lot" she means people spit at them a lot. Which was a thing in the Punk scene at the time.
DAMN!!! We need an ENTIRE evening of stories from them. ❣ one of my most favorite bands.
Just wow. I love how excited they seem to be reminiscing. I could listen to their stories forever.
The 4 of them are all still alive and can play. Just do it!!!!!
Thank you for showing the order. We all love this❤
Saw the Stop making sense movie 2 weeks ago. So energetic, the music,the dancing, they truly enjoyed making music. Thank you.
They definitely were having a good time!
It warms my heart to see them together again.
THE EPISODES ARE NOW LABELED WITH PARTS
I knew David Byrne's mom from our mutual anti-nuclear activism in the early 80s - after I saw TH in Maryland she told me she had been there & tried to find me in the audience to bring me backstage to meet the band. I was so disappointed! I was working a minimum-wage job & renting a room for $150 a month then, but I had the Speaking in Tongues album playing nonstop on my landlady's turntable. Such memories!
So, it's your fault we don't have nuclear power... thanks for nothing.hippies...
Even though they're just doing this to promote the re-release of the movie I'm still happy as a fan to just see these 4 all sitting together.
I don't think much of Colbert - but Talking Heads are legends! I wish I'd been able to see them live back in the day.
Stephen Colbert - I made the same mistake… 1982, Sheffield University, England. Second row from stage centre tickets for the blossoming U2. They’d just gone from playing the Student Union bar venue the year before to playing the city’s concert hall in ‘82. I panicked about the Stats exam scheduled the following day. Why oh why 😢. Anyway… Talking Heads were just the coolest and best from America to be played on record decks throughout my college days, and Stop Making Sense came along to help me forget that U2 error. Superb. Music greats.
Whoa - to have been able to see U2 in 1982!!!! I wish!!!!
That and The Last Waltz are two best. My favorite American band was The Talking Heads. Really enjoyed their music.
I have been a fan since the very first time I heard them on the radio in 1977. I was literally front and center for the stop making sense tour. I'm so happy they are speaking again.
They toured Australia as part of a dual concert line up. One night was Talking Heads and The Pretenders. The other night was The Eurythmics and Simple Minds. Wasn't much more than $15 for the ticket for either show. Nice to see the animosity of previous years dropped. There were some bitter comments e.g. Chris said "David Byrne only wants to play with David Byrne." Some real hurt and this is affirmation of the band and an Epic live film. Rocked my world and EVERYONE was saying "You have to see this!!!" A brilliant idea with so many magic moments beginning with "Hi, I gotta tape I wanna play you."
The tour where Chrissie Hynde and Jim Kerr met & hooked up, ultimately leading to marriage & having a child together.
