Because she subbed them and that's a big novelty, so they played on it?

Edit: I'm assuming you're talking about the Big Weekend set?

Sorta. I thought they went a bit OTT on it at Big Weekend and it ended up sounding like they were taking the piss a bit, then they dedicated Congregation to her last night, apparently?

Just had a Talking Heads session on the way to work this morning. They're my number one (vaguely realistic) dream headliner from now on.

then also check out the following albums (says the Heads obsessive)...

David Byrne - The Catherine Wheel

David Byrne/Brian Eno - my life in the bush of ghosts.

King Crimson - Discipline

If you're a bit leftfield in your tastes, also try Byrne's "music from the knee plays" ... tho you might find that one a bit hard going if you're not liking Byrne's more-standard ("americana") solo stuff.

And I do hope you've found yourself the best TH platter, which is the original (vinyl) version of The Name Of This Band Is Talking Heads - it's available on CD but with extra tracks added which actually makes it a worse album because it doesn't flow.

</here endeth today's lesson :D>

Maybe they're friends with her. Isn't Dave friends with everybody and isn't Taylor friends with everybody?

Rival gangs init, sometime in the future they will have a fight to death of the rival musical friends.

I second Neil's reccomendation for the Kin g Crimson album. That is one tip top album.

Didn't even spot this - thanks Neil. I've heard a good few of these but some or new to me and some I need to give more of a listen.

Do you think there's a chance of them ever headlining? Or would you think it's a lost cause?

from what i've heard (including privately from someone who knows some of them well) I think it's unlikely. It's not something I'm ever expecting to happen.

But you never know I guess, people are said to mellow with age, and i'm referring back to stuff from over ten years ago.
