The talking heads have posted a mysterious teaser on their official social media channels. The reactions to this leave no doubt: the longing for a reunion tour is more big than ever.
Puzoid clip sparked speculation
In the short video the moon can be seen at night, followed by sun rays behind dense clouds. Displayed above the date: Thursday, June 5th. A caption or more detailed information about the importance of this clip are missing. However, the atmosphere of the video deliberately looks mysterious and invites you to speculations.
Why June 5 of all people?
Played on June 5, 1975 David ByrneTina Weymouth, Jerry Harrison and Chris Frantz their first concert as Talking Heads-as support for the Ramones in the CBGB club in New York. It was the beginning of her career.
Reunion or just a new publication?
Could it be a re-publication of the historical live debut? Or is it even the start of an anniversary tour for the 50th anniversary of your first show? “Talking Heads Sphere Residency”, a fan on Facebook speculates.
“Please go on tour. Please!” Is another comment.
Review of the end of the Talking Heads
Since their official dissolution in 1991, there have hardly been any common appearances. The four founding members were on stage together in 2023 – as part of the celebrations for the 40th anniversary of the concert film Stop Making Sense.
Millions of offer for tour once rejected
Although Live Nation made an alleged offer of $ 80 million, the band remained hard. A complete reunification is not planned. In interviews, Byrne mainly emphasized that he had completed this chapter.
The talking heads stay in conversation despite separation. Not least due to limited vinyl new editions, a Super Deluxe Edition of “Talking Heads: 77” and the live album “Live on Tour” (1978), which was released on the Record Store 2025.
