Notes :
As always with the "Big Suit/Stop Making Sense" Tour, each time Talking Heads performed they were rocking the place upside-down. The band is tight as hell and surfing on success. There's not much to discuss about the band's background here, I've already talked about it in a previous upload.
This bootleg is from the later part of the tour, when they rehearsed and dropped the usual "Crosseyed & Painless" encore. Instead, they performed a VERY RARE live version of "Pull Up The Roots" for the very first time (they performed it only 3 time on this tour, in Plattsburgh, in Burlington and in Providence).
The sound quality is not as great as some other bootleg tapes of the same era/tour, but it doesn't matter since the taper did his best to capture the band and the great performance. Kudos to him !

5:55 Wow... such a legend, having to tie his shoe. Best untied performer to ever live.
The feeling of pride when the Talking Heads play in your hometown

I was there, what a fantastic show! They'd spent a week on our campus rehearsing. And partying.
Was there. One of my top concerts ever.

Do you happen to remember David's moves to PUTR? We don't have footage of this song, so it'd be cool to know.

Listening to Ince in a lifetime makes me wonder if they re-recorded the audio for the live version for the movie. because I've never heard another version sound as good as that version.

David did say once that there was very little rerecording, but I have to agree.
Saw that concert in Montréal Canada just few weeks before in a concert bowl with the police
I was there, a college student.

Lucky you, to see such a rare performance of such a terrific song (Pull Up the Roots). By the way, would you happen to remember what David's moves were to PUTR?

I'm just curious,but why was the price the same for students and non-students? It wasn't subsidized by our activity fee? When I was a student at the U of Buffalo in 1989, tickets for the B-52s we're only $4 each.
if I remember - either that suit jacket got incredibly bigger as the concert continued, or i got incredibly smaller. Guess they're not mutually exclusive.
The photo shows how close to the Stage we were once ! Are those Neons at that edge?

1:05:19 what does Byrne say and why does he sound upset? jeez louise

@@Blank_Frank ah ok I think that makes more sense, for some reason I thought he was saying "It's my song" so that makes more sense then. Thank you!
