There are so many bands and artists that i never got the chance to see, either by death or departure, or simply the fact that they were defunct before i was old enough to pay any attention. And through the years, we've seen many a reunion tour or album, sometimes for nostalgia, sometimes for a buck, or sometimes just because they missed making music with each other. I've got a long list of bands i never got to see, divided into two parts: those i will never see (Velvet Underground, Nirvana, etc.), and those that there is still a chance, no matter how marginal or unlikely. I'm talking about the Talking Heads here. If i could reunite anyone, it'd be them. And they're one of the few acts that if they were just going to play one show somewhere, i would probably buy the plane ticket to go. So, all of you promoters and bookers out there, somebody...anybody...Make this happen. In the meantime, here's "Heaven" from 1979's "Fear of Music."
