As a 13 year old, this was rock and roll. My older brothers were led zepplin, montrose and my older sister was rockin out to Bread. Devo was different, wild, fresh, unpredictable. I nearly wore the groves out on first albums, playing them over and over while building slot car tracks.
They were the first concert I went to. My mom gave me a couple of candy bars to take with me so that during the show I could have a snack. I went with a friend and his older brothers. Holy smokes on the way to the show they pulled out a pipe and started getting high. I had never seen pot before then and had no interest, however when the older dudes found out that I had the candy bars I gained instant status. The show was wild and was canceled half way thru by fire marshalls due to overcrowding. A small riot ensued following the bringing up of the lights. It was a fantastic nite of youthful exhuberance.
I still have alot of thier songs on my Ipod and they never get skipped.
