Wissenswertes
If you look carefully, you will notice small spheres on the shoulders of all of the suits. These are tiny BlackTrax infrared transmitters which enable the lights to automatically track performers as they move around the stage. When they leave the stage to march through the theatre, you will notice some of these trackers glowing slightly.

Zitate
David Byrne: [addressing the audience] My name is David Byrne.
[the audience responds with thunderous applause and cheers]
David Byrne: Thank you. I can't take any credit for that. I had no choice in the matter.

Crazy Credits
The end credits are shown on half the screen, while on the other half the band is seen cycling through New York. The music played is 'Everybody's Coming To My House' in the version by Vocal Jazz Ensemble of the Detroit School of Arts.

An Artsy Musical Show Not to be Missed

Never saw a bad David Byrne show. An enjoyable romp in today's culture. A tender and soft musical journey from a voice which has barely aged since 1976. You'll find yourself bobbing your head at times to the rhythmic melodies. A true artist.
