Film over het concert van de Talking Heads. David Byrne loopt op het toneel en doet een solo 'Psycho Killer.' Jerry Harrison, Tina Weymouth en Chris Frantz vallen hem bij met twee andere songs. Het technische team is druk bezig alles op te zetten. Dan 3 andere muzikanten en twee backup zangers vullen de band aan. Iedereen zingt, speelt, danst en rent. Er wordt van instrumenten en kleding veranderd. Byrne komt op in zijn beste kostuum. De achtergrond is vaak zwart, maar soms worden er woorden, foto's en kindertekeningen vertoond. De band gaat voor 18 songs, De tekst is duidelijk, 'the house rocks'. In deze concert film, praten de 'Talking Heads' nauwelijks, 'don't stop, and always make sense'.

A polite man is driven to murder. He becomes a prophet and screams manifestos on love, war, and the increasingly alarming impact of technology and progress. Driven to insanity by his own insights into the human condition, he travels to a river in an attempt to drown himself but instead is baptized and absolved of sin. He dies, crosseyed yet painless.This is the definitive fairytale of my generation, and the moral is "watch out, you might get what you're after". Jesus lives, and he's wearing a giant suit.
sweat my ass off dancing from “slippery people” on in a big suit at a vidiots screening with the band (inc. ednah holt, lynn mabry, and steve scales) in attendance. lynn and ednah joined us and did laps around the audience. tina weymouth gave me a near empty glass of champagne and said my suit was nice. i took two gummies and drank a grapefruit radler. vidiots cofounder saw me hitting the choreo and asked “how many times have you seen this movie” and i just responded “haha.” writing this entry in case i ever trip and fall into the eternal sunshine machine and forget about it
