DEVO . . .

Part of me is digging it. Part of me is all, "what were we thinking?"

I didn't see a date on this performance, but IIRC those red hats came in around Album #3, though this song is album #1. So I suspect this same concert featured a performance of "Whip It."

(I could be wrong. I was wrong once before, but it was a long time ago, and I don't like to talk about it much.)

Thanks to resident drummer Hog Beatty, who forwards it along with the observation that, "yeah, it's fast."

1 Did you collect all of those "URGH: A Music War" clips or did YouTube do that? In either case that album/movie is a truly awesome (comprehensive?) document: thirty-six New Wave/Punk/who knows what bands captured ("in the day") in performance of one song each (except The Police who bookended the collection with "Driven to Tears" [better than studio version?] and "So Lonely").

2 This might tax a drummer--particularly with the encores. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=3Ugf56bgiUQ Or this. . . http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=PSot75yOdfY Probably as hard to do as it is to listen to.
