I guess Mark Mothersbaugh wasn't a smoker. His voice sounds pretty much the same as 30 years ago. These guys are tight as hell, and still raise a ruckus.

THANK YOU, EXCELLENT LIVE DEVO PERFORMANCE!! I first heard them in 1978 (long b4 MTV even existed kiddies!) I was 12yrs old and wore out my DEVO cassettes after obsessive listening. I love their originality, unique style, 100% commitment to their theatrical presentation, and omg the music and lyrics of DEVO never fail to impress, all instant classics! I just turned 50 and they STILL ROCK!
@yearke10 жыл бұрын
Saw them about 3 or 4 years ago in Boston. Loved the show, but really couldn't believe how magnificent and powerful Gates of Steel sounded live. You had to hear it, soundman was really good, too. I was raving about it to friends. The power had a lot to do with the drummer, but all were really good.

I saw DEVO four times from 2012 to 2014. I have seen so many shows from Radiohead, Soundgarden to Iron Maiden and DEVO always gives a rocking show! They are all classically trained musicians and give a flawless performance without the filler crap between songs. During an early 1980s interview on Letterman Mark and Jerry discussed how they don't interact with the audience much and introduce songs with dragged-out intros like, "This next song is about a girl I met in Latrobe, Pennsylvania". Letterman asked why not? Mark, jumped in, "They would resent us."
