After the tnxgvng hoopdedoo, on Friday, Erin and Flip took me to see David Byrne on Broadway with his American Utopia extravaganza. His musicians are all dancers and singers as well as playing their instruments, so it's a pretty great show. The packed, masked audience at the St. James Theater (yes, we had to show ID and proof of vaccination) got up on their feet ad danced a couple times. I was impressed by how faithfully David Byrne did David Byrne, and remembered the old days when Jed took me to Talking Heads' apartment after a CBGB's gig, as well as, hazily, a visit to their loft in Providence when they were still RISD-centric.
fair warning: on block island or manhattan or in missouri, we can be a little salty
