Description
Talking Heads vocalist and guitarist David Byrne, dressed in a light-colored, pinstripe suit, stands at a microphone, playing an electric guitar and singing. He is centered under stage lights, with a pedalboard at his feet with drummer Chris Frantz and bassist Tina Weymouth visible in the background. The drummer is partially obscured by a drum kit, while bassist Tina Weymouth stands to the right, also playing. The backdrop is dark, emphasizing the brightly lit musicians and instruments. The scene appears to be from a live concert performance.
