Just saw this show tonight on Broadway and hung with many of the band in front the theater afterward. Insanely talented and kind folks, all of them. The show itself was just terrifically good. Then David Byrne appeared amidst us on his bicycle and quietly rode home. On Broadway. No fanfare at all.

Was lucky enough to see both the touring show and the Broadway version. They were both exhilarating. Everyone should watch this. Once the world's a little less on fire and Byrne gets to perform it live again, DO NOT QUESTION IT AND JUST BUY THE TICKETS.

At the end of the show, you will see when the curtain drops, there is a man in a black suit skipping across the stage. Thats my uncle! My while family laughed out loud when he did that!

I saw this show in Leeds UK. Probably the best gig ever, unique with a fabulous band. David Byrne always breaking down barriers.

So cool to see a man of his age and years of experience still creating. Still following his passion. Still innovating.

Watched this last night. Would love to see it live. Hoping he does a worldwide tour whne things get back to normal!

David Byrne has invented a new and better way for people to perform music. Amazing show.

Just finished watching the whole movie and it makes perfect sense. Only Spike Lee could have done this show justice. David Byrne, the entire cast and Spike Lee were all fantastic.

I saw this live during Clockenflap in Hong Kong. The show blew my tiny little mind away. I was buzzing for hours after leaving the concert!

[ramilenricom.rodriguez]

Wow! Byrne's still got that voice!

[Celtic_Iron]

One of the greatest artists in every sense of the word and live performers in the world.

[MynameisMikeee]

Would have loved to see this live, but I’ll settle for watching on HBO.

[HD-olmc]

I saw this in Wellington, New Zealand and it was so joyous and uplifting! A wonderful experience.

[suzeesix]
