      I hope the rumors are true and David does another concert movie. Saw his last tour and chasing this next one.

    2. I saw this tour live, and my date at the time was laughing at what she thought was a low-rent opening act for the band. She was not the brightest.

    3. Such a great intro to the movie. Really enjoyed this flick/concert

      When the other band members get added through the song it’s pretty cool

      At one point I thought this would be a great workout video. Just follow David and do what he does. Ive since decided it’s best as accompaniment to light vacuuming.

    5. Saw the show In Pittsburgh. They must have changed it up a little because as the song progresses, the rest of the band begins to work their way onto the stage, one by one, and by the time the song’s over, everyone is beeboppin’ along.

    6. What blew me away about the production of the show was how the rest of the set just slowly arrives within the next few songs. I now have to go and dig out the whole movie and watch it again 😍

      I accidentally saw David Byrne play at Austin City Limits while we were camping out at the front to wait for Paul McCartney and his show was AMAZING. This was when he was touring with the completely wireless, dancing band and everyone was marching around the stage and it was so incredibly fun. I was so late to the game but have been obsessed ever since.

      What actual musical talent looks like. The 80’s and early 90’s was IT. After this it became product not promotion.

      If there’s ever a movie made about this, Cillian is the only one who can play him
