What I learned at the David Byrne show last night

I am now a David Byrne fan. I must confess, prior to last night's show, the extent of my experience with David Byrne's music were the handful of top hits the Talking Heads had back in the '80s . But after his amazing show in downtown Portland last night, there is simply no way not to be impressed with this guy.

Heat Wave: A Summertime Mix

No season gets romanticized in song quite like summertime: You could be swarmed by mosquitoes on a humid 102-degree day in August, and you'd still want to blare music that celebrates the beach, convertible cars, barbecue, ill-conceived summer romances and long days spent unburdened by school and other responsibilities.
