They reunited in 1999 to promote the 15th-anniversary reissue of the film, while in 2002, they came together to perform four songs at the Rock and Roll Hall Of Fame induction ceremony – their only live performance since 1984.Weymouth has described Byrne as “insecure”, saying that the frontman “would often try to blame other people if things went wrong.

Chris and I loved him dearly and we did our best to overlook these disastrous character flaws, but it seemed obvious that Talking Heads wasn’t going to last,” she added.Similarly, Frantz has commented that Byrne’s “brain is wired in such a way that he doesn’t know where he ends and other people begin.
