David Byrne-Louisville KY-Oct 21 2008

Postby schwenko » Tue Oct 21, 2008 1:06 pm

I just came as close as I will be to seeing the Talking Heads live- this is Talking Head and band and dancers.
Great show, in a great venue (Louisville Palace).
All the performerswere dressed in white (?reflecting DB's hair?)

Here's the setlist:

Strange overtones,
I Zimbra,
One fine day,
Help Me somebody,
Houses in motion,
My Big Nurse, My Big hands,
Heaven,
Never Thought,
The River,
Crosseyed & Painless,
Life is long,
Once in Lifetime,
Life During Wartime,
I Feel my Stuff

+ Encores:
+Take me to the River,
+The Great Curve,
+++++++Air!!!!!!!!!
+Burning Down the House,

++Everything that Happens

Since DB stated that (most of) the songs were by him and Brian Eno, the new album, Everything that Happens Will Happen Today, was well represented, as well as a pack of classic TH tunes.

Very enthusiastic audience for an almost 2 hour show-

If you have a chance catch DB!

Going to see him Thursday in Cleveland. Thanks for the HEADS up. LOL!

Obscure stuff has "Sessions at West 54th" that I upped last night. Pretty good sounding too.

IIRC, Sessions at W 54th took place at some point around the release of Rei Mondo (or whatever the album was called). Probably it concentrated on songs from that (or whichever) album, right?

What was great about the current show is that more than 50% of the setlist was classic TH material.

You're in for a real treat.

Ha! This was originally billed as all Byrne/Eno collaboration stuff. He musta gotten too much flak for not playing this tune earlier in the tour.

Same set list. REALLY LOUD! I didn't mind the dancers either (and some of you know how much I hate dancers). Great show.

Hey fellas, thanks for the reviews and the set lists. Now I am truly thrilled that I won a pair of free tickets through our local alternative newspaper, The Syracuse New Times (shamless plug). I can't wait to see the show on 11-29-08 at the Landmark Theatre in Syracuse.[:D]
