And referring to Sharon Jones as a member of "Amy Winehouse's backing band" is just rude! At the same time, you know, this is sweet. Cuz let's be honest: David Byrne fronting the Dap-Things is not something to miss. Though I may download it illegally. Just on principle.

I think it got mixed reviews. This is based on a 2006 theatrical piece called “Here Lies Love” that Byrne presented in 2006 onstage in Australia and in 2007 at Carnegie Hall in NY.
