Was really looking forward to seeing both Devo and The Sonics at Primavera festival. For similar aged bands, Devo were soo much better. (Sonics were an awful Status Quo parody of their former selves; Devo rocked).

It's funny seeing them in their flowerpot hats and yellow boiler suits with the middle aged spread, though!

If you like Devo, check out Clor for a contemporary version thereof.

Yeah I like 'I Me My Mine' but a whole album of them is a bit full on. Saw them at that small club in Islington (near highbury corner) - hottest gig in the world but really good energy.

Mark Mothersbaugh is something of a genius. So few people realise just how much stuff he's done - look up his discog for a few 'well shit - I never knew that' moments.
