Given Tina Weymouth and Chris Frantz's Valentine's Day-trip to the Eight-Track Museum's grand opening, the timing's certainly good: Only yesterday, someone posted to Vimeo about 28 minutes' worth of footage from the Talking Heads' '78 trip through town during the More Songs About Building and Food tour. Which probably sounds familiar, seeing as how but two months ago I directed your attention to the far better audio from this very same show at the Palladium, which I haven't stopped listening to since. Extra credit: Sync 'em up!

Forthcoming (tomorrow), the return of For Your Weekend Listening Pleasure.
