It was ultimately closed due to potential fire hazard.

That's brilliant.
Sounds just like the sort of thing we'd expect from Byrne and Eno.

A very good idea!
I�m a big fan of Talking Heads and Byrne, many of his solo albums are really good.

That is tame for Byrne standards. I saw something a while back where he had an organ hooked in a wharehouse and you could play the room!
