David Byrne
  • I've rarely seen video screens used well in a music concert.

  • There's more good music being made now than ever before.

  • Why not invest in the future of music, instead of building fortresses to preserve its past?

  • The imminent demise of the large record companies as gatekeepers of the world's popular music is a good thing, for the most part.

  • So there's no guarantee if you like the music you will empathize with the culture and the people who made it. It doesn't necessarily happen. I think it can, but it doesn't necessarily happen. Which is kind of a shame.
