Hang on. Are we about to see a Talking Heads reunion?

Talking Heads never really formally broke up. They just…evaporated with everyone going their separate ways. And on the list of most-wanted reunions, I’d put them in the top five.

The band–or at least the people in charge of the care and feeding of their legacy–are active on social media. They dropped this little nugget.

Talking Heads played their first-ever gig on June 5, 1975, when they opened for The Ramones at CBGB. Could this be a hint of a reunion announcement 50 years to the day of that first gig? That font is the same as the one used for their debut album in 1977, too.

I guess we’ll find out Thursday.
