Devo

Devo performed two nights in a row at Irving Plaza in NYC over the weekend. And like they did on their whole current tour, they played a diffferent full album each night. Not coincdentally, those two albums were both just reissued as deluxe editions and just in time for the holidays…

Devo, Q: Are We Not Men? A: We Are Devo! and Freedom of Choice Deluxe Editions
Depending on who you ask, art-rock godfathers Devo are either one of the greatest and most innovative bands of all time, or just one of New Wave’s most memorable one-hit wonders. Both camps will be satisfied with the band’s reissues of the two records that best of exemplify both aspects of their legacy–their quirky 1978 debut Q: Are We Not Men? A: We Are Devo! and 1980’s classic Freedom of Choice. The cherry on top: a “Mongoloid”/”Jocko Homo” 7-inch that accompanies the limited edition color vinyl version of …Are We Not Men?. [Nashville Scene]

Friday night was the Are We Not Men show. Saturday was Freedom of Choice. Full review from both days, and pictures from the first night, coming shortly. More pictures from the second night (they changed outfits to match the album), below…
