Reminds me of when I went to David Byrne's 'True Stories' - Second Matinee, first day of release - the theater was half filled with older folks - definitely not TH fans. I noticed about 15 minutes in that we were the only ones laughing at the jokes. I stood up, turned around and said "How many of you are here because David Byrne is on the cover of Time this week ?" I was greeted by blank stares - blink, blink,... I sat back down and my companions started beating me about the head and neck for being a lout.
