    Talking Heads to Reunite for “Stop Making Sense” Panel

    Mary Anne ButlerBy No Comments

    Hell truly must’ve frozen over, as a reunion of sorts is happening for the Talking Heads. David Byrne, Tina Weymouth, Chris Frantz, and Jerry Harrison are celebrating the 4K restoration of Jonathan Demme‘s iconic concert film, “Stop Making Sense.” A24 announced the project earlier this year, with kind of the best teaser ever.

    The band, who haven’t appeared in public together for more than 20 years, will participate in a panel about the film, hosted by Spike Lee. (The last time Talking Heads were in the same place at the same time willingly was their 2002 Rock and Roll Hall of Fame induction ceremony.) The panel will take place at the Toronto International Film Festival, where the 4K restoration will make it’s debut on September 11th.

    The panel, as well as the film, will hit IMAX theaters September 22nd. A wider release will follow, starting September 29th. You can get tickets now.
