Playing The Building, opening May 31st, marks the New York debut for David Byrne’s sonic infrastructure experiment, one where he uses the water pipes, steel beams, and pillars of a building to produce music.

This is a form of musical expression reserved for those that can A) Rent out the Battery Maritime Building, B) Employ a hive of contractors to install swinging hammers throughout the rafters C) Get away with the ensuing clang.

In other words, this does not happen often. You should do your best to go, but only if you have an amazing outfit.
