David Byrne at Radio City Music Hall

David Byrne's concert at Radio City Music Hall, February 28, 2009, was unbelievable. Kanye West cannot hold a candle to this consummate performer. David Byrne is a real Renaissance man. Dance, Choreography, Lighting, Music, Composition - he knows how to take care of business. He is a man of the present with a deep knowledge of the past. He can recognize and respect the talent of others and put it to great use. I am talking about his choreographer, Noemie Lafrance and whomever he put in charge of his stage lighting.

This was the most SuperFab concert I have ever had the pleasure to attend. David Byrne has set the bar on top of the world.
