While decluttering recently, I came upon my
Devo ticket stub (click to enlarge). Apparently, my mom let me see them on a school night.
Things became a little weird in the early
1980s, and I loved it.
If something was quirky and made me laugh from its absurdity and wackiness, the better. Enter,
Devo. If you like to dance or want a giggle, these will make you, at least, bob your head:
•
Whip It
• Girl U Want
•
That's Good
•
Through Being Cool
•
Beautiful World
• (I Can't Get No) Satisfaction
•
Peek-a-boo
• If you're really adventurous, watch

At the concert I bought a red,
flower-pot hat. I also bought a concert t-shirt. The concert was during their strange,
plastic-shoulder,
potato-body phase. When the t-shirt became too small to wear, I gave it to a friend with the stipulation to give it back when she no longer wore it. A few years ago she returned it.
Ta da.

Devo Christmas in
1982. The above photo is
