Devo takes me back to high school art class for some reason

Wow, this *def* sounds like my 1980. BOS1 Genesis, Behind the Lines, from their last decent album.

I'd argue 2nd to last decent album, but will second the BOS.

BOS #2 for Devo!

What would you say their last decent one was?
Let's get right to it.

Big year for nerd/geek/alien rock.  another BOS to B52s.

Will chk the DB later, but wonder if we've ever heard Dance This Mess Around on 10 at 10?  That's one of my faves.

I bet it's ABACAB.   The album called Genesis was pretty good...

she's just the girl U want!  BOS3 Devo -- damn, AL has played more Devo in 5 months than Dave did in 20 years!

Dave played four different Devo songs between '03 and '08, but Whip It was by far the most common. Workin' In a Coal Mine was second, while Girl U Want had two plays and Freedom of Choice just one.

WOS Kenny Loggins, but VHM for the gopher.

actually the girl they wanted was Sharona - this was a deliberate songwriting attempt to be like The Knack.

and yes, Danny & Donna are still married.  Anyone interested in some good Aykroyd anecdotes should find Tom Davis' (as in 'Franken and ___') recent autobiography, 39 Years of Short Term Memory Loss.  In addition to all the expected dish on SNL & Franken, turns out he was best friends w/Aykroyd & they had all kinds of globe-trotting adventures.  Plus Davis was apparently very tight with both Timothy Leary & Jerry Garcia. A very humorous read in a surprisingly understated writing style.
