      Got to meet the guys from DEVO!!

     Yes, on October 10th 2014 I was at the Premier  of  Hardcore Devo in New York, and the band was there.

     "Hardcore Devo" is a concert movie of Devo playing music from before the first album. The material is a little crazier than what was recorded,

"From the basements of Akron Ohio" "Songs with no commercial intent"

The movie is a tribute to Bob Casale, who died of heart failure  on February 17, 2014. 

 I've been listening to their music since I was 13 when they appeared on SNL back in 1979 .

They seemed like old friends, though we'd never met.

Hope Mark gets that Raymond Scott music composing machine The Electronium working.  I knew that he had  obtained The Electronium, but didn't know if it was functional. Apparently not 100%.  Definitely a Duty Now For The Future!

Two  days after the movie premier Devo played a great show up at Time Square as part of the CBGB's festival.
