Stop Making Sense

David Byrne walks on to a bare stage with a portable cassette tape player and an acoustic guitar. He introduces "Psycho Killer" by saying he wants to play a tape, but in reality a Roland TR-808 drum machine starts playing from the mixing board. With each successive song, Byrne is joined by more members of the band: first by Tina Weymouth for "Heaven", then by Chris Frantz for "Thank You for Sending Me an Angel", and finally by Jerry Harrison for "Found a Job". Performance equipment is wheeled out and added to the set to accommodate the additional musicians. The first song to feature the entire lineup is "Burning Down the House." David Byrne leaves the stage at one point for a costume change, during which the Weymouth–Frantz-led side-band Tom Tom Club perform their song "Genius of Love."
