Devo is an interesting act to ponder as they exploded on the New Wave scene with a unique style that even manage to turn The Rolling Stones’ “Satisfaction” into their own. Neil Young credits the band on improving the iconic “Hey Hey My My” by coming up with “ Rust Never Sleeps” and Mark Mothersbaugh even went on to create the music for the children’s cartoon “Rugrats”. I do not really recall this particular Central Park concert so I am guessing we may have hung out on the boulders beyond the fencing for this one. Devo is nominated for the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame this year (but still no Jethro Tull or Ian Hunter?). I just read an article about 35 rock stars over 75 years old; when live music returns, catch your favorites while you still can as we are all on the clock.

Whip It

Rock on!
