10 Nov 2009--it's 1980

I figured she'd play the obligatory Devo as she has done so far in every set circa 1980.  Not my favorite song from that album though.

 heh, not the Song-U-Want, eh?

these guys rocked pretty hard, I loved them.  It would've been great to see them at the Regency Ballroom, but tix were 40 (or maybe 50) and above, I think (sort of like the age of the band members).  gotta budget those rock dollars in these times!

maybe Devo 2.0 will tour again -- might be cheaper.

Heard from some friends that went that they played the evening's designated album, but not much more. The main set consisted of Q: Are We Not Men? or Freedom of Choice, respectively, and that's it. Add two songs for the encore and that was the entire show. Under an hour, both nights.

not much quantity, but I hope the quality lived up to expectations.  And there probably were a  lot of expectations at a show like this.
