Stop Making Sense - The Talking Heads Thread

[kcmets]

Kinda prophetic...

I can't believe it
And people are strange
Our president's crazy
Did you hear what he said
Business and pleasure
Lie right to your face
Divide it in sections
And then give it away

David Byrne, who did much of his growing up in the Baltimore-adjacent community of Arbutus, long believed himself to have been saved from Vietnam by the famed work of the Catonsville Nine, who became celebrated criminals in 1968 when they broke into the Catonsville draft board offices, removed the records in the files and burned them in the parking lot.

That his name was in the files turned out to be probably unlikely, as Byrne was 16 at the time, but it's meaningful that he believed it, and grew up feeling he owed his life to the Berrigan brothers, leaders in the raid.

Anyone think David looks like Edgy? (or vice versa lol)...

[metirish]

OMG yes , and I'm sure David has sported a red pants or two over the years

[Edgy MD]

I am not David Byrne, but I AM BFFs with Chris Frantz on Fezbook.

[MFS62]

I am not David Byrne,

We're still not sure.
We've never seen both of you in the room at the same time.
Later

Do you have a white suit that's kind of loose on you?
