b born droid Posted April 1, 2009 Share Posted April 1, 2009 I saw him on Sunday night. He was fucking awesome. Setlist: Strange Overtones I Zimbra One Fine Day Help Me Somebody Houses in Motion My Big Nurse My Big Hands Heaven Wanted for Life Life is Long Cross-eyed and Painless Born Under Punches Once in a Lifetime Life During Wartime I Feel My Stuff Take Me to the River The Great Curve Air Burning Down the House Everything That Happens His new album with Eno is ace, and it was great to hear the tracks live. Only downside was lack of Talking Heads stuff outside of Eno based tracks, but then again that was to be expected. Try to get to this if you can.

lumpenprol Posted April 1, 2009 Share Posted April 1, 2009 I haven't seen this tour but I completely agree about Byrne live. I saw him ages ago on tour for his first solo album. The guy had a full mexican (? er, "ethnic") band backing him up, and he was a live wire. So much energy and the sound was great. One of the very best concerts I've been to.

Guest Iain C Posted April 1, 2009 Share Posted April 1, 2009 He's headlining the Bestival I think, one of my housemates is going. I'm sure it'll be fantastic, but probably not worth a jaunt to the Isle of Wight. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest Iain C Posted April 1, 2009 Share Posted April 1, 2009 Yeah, you're right actually. And looking at this tracklist again post-cannabis, I really want to see it. A lot. Fack! Edit: Actually he's not mentioned at all on the Bestival website so I might just be getting confused, I think my housemate is going to see him somewhere else. Sorry for getting your hopes up, lol!
