Maybe you’ve never seen it or maybe you’ve watched it a million times, Stop Making Sense never gets old and is being remastered and re-released this month www.rollingstone.com/music/music-news/talking-heads-stop-making-sense-returning-theaters-soundtrack-reissue-1234697972/amp/
Director Jonathan Demme captures the frantic energy and artsy groove of Talking Heads in this concert movie shot at the Hollywood Pantages Theatre in 1983. The band’s frontman, David Byrne, first appears on an empty stage, armed with only an acoustic guitar, and is gradually joined by bassist Tina Weymouth, drummer Chris Frantz, keyboardist Jerry Harrison and a cadre of backup singers as they perform the band’s hits, culminating in an iconic performance featuring Byrne in an enormous suit.
Bring what you need: blankets, chairs, drinks and/or snacks. Be prepared to get up and dance! Costumes are encouraged.
Monday August 7th.
Free and open to all.
