What a day that was: You can still see 'Stop Making Sense' in theaters

ICYMI: The newly restored version of "Stop Making Sense" has been in theaters in recent weeks to coincide with its 40th anniversary of Jonathan Demme's renowned concert film. 

Locally, you can catch it at Village East by Angelika (Tuesday's screening with a David Byrne Q&A is already sold out) ... Regal Union Square... and Regal Essex Crossing.

    I have the cassette and saw them live at Forest Hills around that time. See link. And I saw Byrne on 10st Street just west off 5th Ave walking along with his bike helmet in his hand around 20 years ago.

    I'm so old.

    You can still see him around downtown a dozen times in any given year.

    Excellent movie. Love Byrne dancing with a lamp to This Must Be The Place, one of my favorite songs. Home is where I want to be ...
