American Utopia
American Utopia [trailer]
Deeply thoughtful and wildly exuberant, David Byrne’s theatrical concert lit up Broadway last year with his trademark mix of rhythm and ideas.
It must have been a great experience to see this live. Seeing everyone perform and move around across the stage put a smile on my face. It's just a joy to watch.
Every band member being completely mobile, due to the lack of cables, leads to a very different concert experience. It looks deceptively simple but it's very well choreographed.
Though being forced to sit, in a theatre like the one where filming took place, must've felt like torture for most of the time. I really want to be on my feet during events like this.
