“Another Party About Buildings and Food: A New Wave Dance Party”
in celebration of my 21st birthday.
10:30pm, Saturday, February 4, 2012
at the midtown bungalow of:
Andrew G (aka Jerry)
Andrew M (aka Chris)
Andrew W (aka Tina)
[and most importantly]
Jacob (duh I’m David Byrne).
Talking Heads: Chronology - American Bandstand
Tina: I guess he’s… organically shy.
Dick Clark: Are you a shy person?
David: I’d say so.
cutest thing I’ve seen all week.

This song on repeat for the last week.
Talking Heads - Girlfriend Is Better (Stop Making Sense)

Stuck in my head all day.
“Songs that make me want to learn bass” is a new personal audio tag inspired by this song.
Tina Weymouth just kills this track. Her funky bass-line creates an amazing contrast when juxtaposed with David Byrne’s utter paranoia.
So I guess I’m stuck listening to this combo-cd of Talking Heads’ Fear of Music and Devo’s Q: Are We Not Men? A: We Are Devo! until I get my shit fixed.
JUST FOR THE RECORD - In the last two weeks, in addition to the two previously stated troubles, my airconditioning has fizzled and my driver’s side just window refuses to work.
will be the name of the first party I throw at my new place once I move out this summer.
We shall drink and smoke and listen to Talking Heads on vinyl and have an all-around merry time.

“Mind” Talking Heads
So, I’ve been listening to a lot of Talking Heads lately, but I had never until today listened to this album, start-to-finish.
1.) omigod it’s so good.
2.) Brian Eno is essentially a 5th bandmate obviously producing this stuff.
