Meet The Residents Wiki


Talking Light Dallas (aka 'TLdallas') is the sixth of sixty-seven digital only live albums released of The Residents' 2010-2011 Talking Light world tour.

Differences From Other Talking Light Shows[]

  • Randy starts Demons Dance Alone one verse early
  • Monologue #1 is slightly longer.
  • Six More Miles is 7 minutes long
  • 'Florence The Fat Ghost' is performed as the second 'Ghost Story' song. At this point in the tour there was no fixed song for that position in the setlist, and the group had alternated between playing Pudding in Disguise, Florence The Fat Ghost, or Milton The Melted Man from show to show. Florence is shorter than it was the first time it was played, at 10 minutes.
  • The Residents perform 'Milton The Melted Man' in place of 'The Unseen Sister', but play Unseen Sister anyway as part of the encore. Because of this, the show is 10 minutes longer than any of the previous ones, and features the most songs. The Unseen Sister is 9 minutes long.
  • 'The Old Woman' is 7 minutes long.
  • 'Bury Me Not' is 6 minutes long.
