Talking Heads inducted in the Rock 'n' Roll Hall of Fame

"I'd like to thank the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame for giving this band a happy ending" (Chris Frantz, March 18, 2002)

On March 18, 2002 Talking Heads were inducted in the Rock 'n' Roll hall of Fame during a ceremony in the Waldorf Astoria in New York City. The band got together for the very last time and played four songs: "Psycho Killer", "Life During Wartime", "Burning Down the House" and "Take me to the River".
