If you’re a DTE ubergeek (and there’s two, counting us) you might catch a subtle Talking Heads reference nearly once a week. That’s because we unabashedly enjoy David Byrne. So of course we’re thrilled since he's in Spokane and you might catch him riding his bike before the concert at the Fox Theater.


Byrne is an avid cyclist, even designing bike racks. When he last played Spokane in August 2004, he blogged, “there's a lovely paved path, the Centennial Trail, that goes all the way to Idaho. The city was really smart to get it built. There are lots of people out during the weekends enjoying it. It goes out past the town along the riverside, through pine forest and scrub, and get as far as a beach, where a large man with a Mohawk is standing waist-deep in the water smoking a cigarette.”

He’s odd, he’s cool, and he’s green. David Byrne. It's once in a lifetime. Unless he comes back to Spokane. Seems that he likes it here, especially Boulder Beach.
