Incredible ground breaking band to this day. Nothing like them before or since.

[@petepeterson8420]

I'm 72 now, remember all the top Devo hits but never got into who the band is or anything other than 3 or 4 songs. Today I'm binge watching their videos. Immersion. Damn, I missed this whole environment, but I can see the echos of their work all through the 80's and 90's through to today. I've always loved synth's, electronic based music. Total commitment as performers. Just simply awesome.

[@supertrix6628]

rip bob, gonna miss his toons jam on the band. going to see them still in couple weeks their last run - saw them in the 80s twice, i owned all their cassette tapes thru the 70s n 80s this was before u tube and cd/dvd's

[@jeffsutherland277]

De-volution 1973-2023 Just saw them in Seattle at the Paramount theater. Incredible show! ❤

[@stevemurrell6167]

The LP of this sounds great.....what a great concert it was! Also, mention has to made of Josh Freese's excellent drumming here.....it's not easy to carry these odd beats off.

[@michaellorenzen8200]

Alan is/was irreplaceable IMO

[@longlivebytor]

Exactly,@@michaellorenzen8200

[@josephmcguiness6452]

Agreed. I love Alan and he was one of a kind. But Josh was fierce here

[@digitalspirit.mp3]

@@michaellorenzen8200 Oh, that Alan forever. But most of the hardcore songs were played by Jim Mothersbaugh on electric drums

[@longlivebytor]

At this particular moment, Devo was the last concert I saw. It was also my very first. One of the most intelligent bands, ever.

[@deanmays7133]

I always liked devo, but this show has given me a different perspective. Impressive.

[@billyriker2966]

Dream come true to see a live show of this era!

[@josephmcguiness6452]

Bob was squeezing some great sounds out of that Les Paul. Amazing show

[@willieluncheonette5843]

those early songs before their first single was released show they were already a fully formed band with their signature sound way before 1977

[@shayneoneill1506]

That was amazing. A lot of my favourite Devo tunes are from this period. Never knew Bob2 played bass on Clock Out.

I was at this show with a friend now ten years ago. He has passed on, but the memory of this unique concert lives on, as does this video, which captured the night so well. Thanks for sharing. We're all DEVO

[@daleskidmore1685]

Fantastic gig, they still rock big time!

[@J-Loe]

This Hardcore set is soo awesome. I just love it soo much. Thank you very much for this Doc.

[@perfectlycorrupt420]

Listening to this, the short little intro they did to "Stop, Look, and Listen" is a throwback to the into to their mashup with Neil Young on "Hey, Hey, My, My". Very cool little nod.

[@XXXXIndices]

Yes you do not need to look far to see the evidence of DEVOLUTION! Thank you Devo still as relevant as ever.

[@MrLangDog]

Absolutely effing fantastic!!!! I have so many fond memories of being a teen in the early 80's associated with DEVO songs I got teary eyed a few times during the concert.

In 77 DEVO was total outlier. My buddies had a house party , which i drove 500 miles to, i put on DEVO s second album ---😂 the party just stopped. Froze. Hilariously. So different, so cool. ...i bought $50 bucks worth of DEVO RECORDS...damn cool. REEFER & ALCOHOL MUSIC Bob was a suburban robot ! Will miss him !

[@patrickmcmanus5373]

We are Devo ❤

[@mrzold]

I know this is a shot in the dark, but I have begun to try to find the lyrics that seemed to be added here to U Got Me Bugged. I have been looking at the various lyrics resources online and the section that begins at about 01:14:20 seems to be a "new" section. By the time we get to 01:15:07 we're back to the familiar "Now I'm hopelessly entangled ... " and ends/rhymes with "strangled" (these lyrics appear online but earlier in song). Does anyone know what the seemingly new lyrics to that section are? I'm trying to find out - I think I'll also try to isolate the voice. That may help. I f'in' love this, btw - just found it tonight. I saw DEVO in Central Park in '04 which was beautiful and rocking and insane (they controlled the weather 🙂). I also saw them in ... 1980 (pretty sure that was the year ... memory ... so .. foggy ... )

[@mrzold]

Yeah. This. Ain't. An. Easy. Task....

[@michaellorenzen8200]

Devolution! NnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnNaNa!🎶🎵

[@ahojcl335]

Cómo quisiera que vengan al Ecuador.

[@DeepDish211]

The real and tragic direction of De-evolution can be consoled slightly by the ridiculous and energetic goofiness I feel while Devo is at the helm. You guys have been my north star since my earliest memories. I am 55 now and have been a DJ, Devo gave me the directive to be different and create my own sound without caring about peoples reaction. Thank you.

[@StringedGuitar17]

51:37 is probably my favourite live show moment of all time

[@amylyno]

I think Bob Mothersbaugh is a kick ass guitar player!

[@v.a.993]

What has always interested me about DEVO is that they were doing this music in 1974 at the same time Kraftwerk were pioneering / perfecting similar sounds. Did either group know of each other in 1974? I doubt it. Understanding the history of Kraftwerk, they (Ralf Hutter in particular) had been working electronic sounds since the late 1960s. That early music was not commercialized and was still very raw/unpolished. Beyond the little clubs that they played in Germany presumably no one else was hearing it. Similar to DEVO, they too were largely scorned for it, as it was not well-received for the most part. Kraftwerk toured the US in the mid-1970s, the Midwest e.g., Chicago in 1975. If DEVO became aware of Kraftwerk by this point, did they feel somewhat vindicated by this?

[@bellfoozwell]

I wish the songs weren't interrupted with interviews

[@thomasminarchickjr.7355]

Their best work was the hardcore Devo era. The first couple of records were pretty good, but for a band that was so critical of the mainstream, they ended up just joining it and fading out in the 80’s.

[@peterwoodhouse4314]

Can't disagree. Many established guitar based or 'classic rock' acts who formed in the 1970s or earlier struggled to adapt to the synth drowned 80s. Neil Young (sued by his record company), Queen (which albums are better, Hot Space/Kind of Magic or ...Opera/Sheer Heart Attack?), even Zappa, etc. Devo adopted synths so early, by the 4th album they were becoming indistinguishable from every other bland New Romantic or synth pop band. Devo albums still better crafted than most of the era.

[@ElectricBoogaloo007]

Devo invented the 80s in the 70s.

[@DbeeM]

They devolved as they predicted !

In memory of Bob Casale we're gonna play all the songs we wrote before he joined the band

[@thecoxlong4316]

the tour was supposedly an idea of the late Bob's. Also, Clockout.

[@supermachine2275]

He wrote Fountain of Filth, and composed one of the riffs in Gut Feeling. Satisfaction was essentially kicked off by Bob 2

[@jimbailey1122]

Before you embarrassed yourself here you should have done some basic research and DISCOVERED that Bob Casale, despite briefly leaving in 1975, was part of the original 1973 band.

[@LFrench]

@jimbailey1122 Erm actually you're wrong because Bob Casale left in late 1973 and rejoined in late 1976 so U got the date wrong actually

[@LFrench]

Anyway here's the songs from the show They wrote whilst Bob2 was in the band -Beehive -Satisfaction (Mentioned in video) -Timing X -Soo Bawlz -Stop Look and Listen -Uncontrollable Urge -Fountain of Filth (he co-wrote) -Gut Feeling -Clockout
