I expected that a 2-cd set of a concert would have at the very leastover 80 minutes of music. Most concerts go 90 minutes to 2 hours.The actual total time is 67 minutes and 25 seconds, and over 5 minutesof that is sound from an old video and a pre-recorded intro song,bringing the total time to a little over 60 minutes of music. Granted,that's all that Devo played, but why the fuck was it a 2-disc set?And worse yet, when you download the CD's online, you get 192K MP3'sburned onto your CD with 2-second gaps between each song!!! So I'mpissed off that they charged double for a single and I'm going to postthis now. These are the original MP3's that you download with theirsoftware, not copies."
and to hear hot in here with are we not mean is quite something

I'm guessing most of their fans are using their freedom of choice to stay home and watch the 1980 live dvd.

DEVO ANNOUNCE NEW STUDIO ALBUM TO DEBUT FALL 2009 SXSW PRESS CONFERENCE AND KEYNOTE PANEL CONFIRMED FOR THURSDAY MARCH 19 AT AUSTIN CONVENTION CENTERONE-NIGHT-ONLY SXSW PERFORMANCE SET FOR FRIDAY, MARCH 20 AT AUSTIN MUSIC HALLU.K. PERFORMANCES ON TRACK FOR MAY INCLUDING A HEADLINING SPOT AT 'ALL TOMORROW'S PARTIES'
De-evolution has finally arrived...and who better to guide us through the mess than DEVO. What the iconic new wave, art punk pioneers cautioned us about almost 30 years ago is no longer a humorous theory. It's pretty much fact--we now live in a devolved world that's getting wackier each and every day.
The fall of 2009 will bring a new DEVO studio album, their first one since 1990's Smooth Noodle Maps. It'll mark their first new music since the strong fan reaction that greeted the 2007 single "Watch Us Work It," their first new song in 18 years and one that was produced by Sweden's TeddyBears (Robyn). They're now in the studio putting the finishing touches on their new album (title TBA).
The five-piece--featuring co-founders and songwriters MARK MOTHERSBAUGH (lead vocals, synthesizer innovations) and GERALD CASALE (lead vocal, bass) and rounded out by BOB CASALE (guitarist), BOB MOTHERSBAUGH (guitars/vocals) and JOSH FREESE (drums)--are set make a special U.S. appearance at SXSW this year including a press conference (4:00pm) and keynote panel (5:00pm)--moderated by radio veteran Nic Harcourt--set for Thursday, March 19 at the Austin Convention Center (500 East Cesar Chavez St.). They'll follow that up with a Friday, March 20 one-night-only SXSW concert at the Austin Music Hall (208 Nueces St.). Pre SXSW, DEVO fans in Dallas can catch a special one-off show on Wednesday, March 18 at the Palladium Ballroom.
In May, DEVO will head to the United Kingdom for a series of dates. On Wednesday, May 6, DEVO will perform their debut album, the seminal Q: Are We Not Men, We Are Devo! in its entirety from beginning to end at London's Kentish Town Forum. Released in 1978, the seminal album produced by Brian Eno and recorded in Germany features such notable tracks such as the band's cover of The Rolling Stones' "(I Can't Get No) Satisfaction," "Mongoloid" and "Jocko Homo." Next up on Friday, May 8, they'll headline the All Tomorrow's Parties festival in Somerset at the Butlins Holiday Centre.
Formed in 1972 in Akron, OH, DEVO--short for "de-evolution"--began as an art project cautioning that humans were devolving and regressing into a herd mentality of American society, not evolving. A conceptual band from the beginning, DEVO were ahead of their time, incorporating elaborate aesthetics into their live shows and seamlessly combining their music with visuals years before MTV or any music-video culture existed. Indeed, the group's first appearance at Kent State University in 1973 was recorded with a black and white portable video system. Societal satirists, DEVO's lyrical mix of comedy and quirky wit, warned of the dangers of rampant capitalism in "Whip It" and "Freedom of Choice", and the devolution of society in "Jocko Homo" and "Beautiful World." Onstage in their early incarnation, the group began with a mixture of synthesizers and rock instruments; as they developed in the late seventies and early eighties, DEVO became one of the first American acts to perform using only synthesizers. DEVO have now returned with an evolved look, ready to impact the vastly devolved world we now find ourselves trying to navigate.
