Neil Posted November 18, 2022 Report Share Posted November 18, 2022 If you haven't read the book I suggest you give it a go, it's an interesting read with quite a lot of UK stuff. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Being old has some advantages, I was lucky enough to see them at this gig in 1977 but was too shy to speak to her: ‘Debbie Harry watched on from the back of the hall with about 100 in attendance as Talking Heads and Ramones took to the stage at Strathclyde University with David Byrne’s band playing a tight rhythmic set while Ramones sped through songs from their debut album in around 30 minutes.’ From Glasgow World. 1 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

JayDiesel Posted October 3, 2023 Report Share Posted October 3, 2023 Worth noting that Jerry's Manager is active on the Talking Heads subreddit, and recently commented on the likelihood of a reunion. A few months ago, he was fully on the 'don't hold your breath' train, but following the release of Stop Making Sense and the rumour mill starting, he has confirmed that 'contracts have been distributed, but there are currently some hold ups'. It at least confirms that there is some movement - fingers crossed! 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

crumbler Posted October 3, 2023 Report Share Posted October 3, 2023 Probably in the minority here but I'm not sure what you'd get from a Talking Heads reunion that a David Byrne gig wouldn't deliver tenfold, nostalgia aside Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Badlands Posted October 4, 2023 Report Share Posted October 4, 2023 Not sure that they fit in with the Coachella demographic nowadays. Plenty festivals in the US would take them. Likely too expensive for glastonbury. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
