To this day, one of the top 5 live performances I've seen and heard. Josh Freese is one amazing drummer and infused a ton of energy into the band. Spectacular.
Josh freese is amazing .. One of the best around.. Have you seen his drum cam when he played with nine inch nails ? Wish .. Check it out ! Quality drummer , played with a perfect circle too .. Underrated drummer ..
A lot of Devo's artistic genius was in their videos. So many subtle pokes into the toilet of a society that humanity was, has become, and is becoming. I miss these guys. They never truly got the recognition that they deserved.
These guys are amazing. Bought my first DEVO album in high school... I'm now 61 and still LOVE their music. Their complex rhythms and arrangements make them truly one of the most unique bands ever. 👍
@@tjnugent62 he modded a lot too, that's why the G&L Fallout remake is so interesting, I have one and it's a wildly applicable guitar, they're fantastic.
I was there in the 5th row from the front, and believe me everybody gave Devo a great reception. I didnt see any ungrateful people at all. Everyone including the metal heads , punks goths, jocks, geeks etc. was enjoying a truly grear Devo comeback.
The best bands have that ability: to unify. Nirvana, Rage Against The Machine, and Soundgarden have all covered Devo. Devo provided hope to all us nerds and uncool kids to hope that life would get better.
I was on the grass. Devo were the first band that day that blew the audience away. Followed by the Ramones, Soundgarden and Metallica. The last four bands were great and the entire crowd was on their feet.
@@vinylrichie007 Phoenix 1996? If so, I was also there towards the front, stage left. This was the event where the Ramones were blown offstage because of the dust storm. Then Soundgarden, black hole Sun, with lightening in the background. The audience didn’t get Devo. A lot of people moved back after Whip It allowing me to get closer.
Bought Are we Not Men... the day it came out. The energy and consistency and geniuses.... Remarkable. The drummer here was so good and pounded non-stop. The crowd were likely not expecting this. And more likely, became Devo fans for the rest of their lives. At least those who were not already! Thank you for the video.

@@juanm.rodriguez2278 I have seen Ramones 3 times and could've skipped it and Metallica as well, if Devo could've played a longer set in this concert, do more of their great catalog. Freedom of Choice, Jerkin Back and Forth, Beautiful World.... I never got to see DEVO live even though I was a fan from the start and it would be great to me if this video was longer.
This is close to their greatest performance of all their great ones.All the killer songs are blazed away,even though there's more that could be there too.Given that it's a long time back, this is magnificent live mastery.Their latest show at Desert Daze was supernatural. The most unique band who I still love eternally in my 60s now and for all time.
@@zombywoof1015 Their motto was be Stiff. No posturing , just straightforward rock .and their movements are choreographed, no swinging beloved guitar on its strap around their shoulders, they just chuck it.
Man, im almost ashamed to say this but i have to be honest fellow SPUDS, im now 39 and a UK lad and only found this, now 1 of my top 3/4 bands in the last 3 years!!! I know, i know sad indeed!! But whats the saying??,..its NEVER to late, if you are your too old,..LOL!! THANK-YOU DEVO for such a huge tip-top back catalogue for me to pop my cherry to, along with my brain!!! TBH ive never met as much as 1 other DEVO head over here in Scotland, dear, dear, dear!! Thanks to K. Cobain and looking through my local music stores "new-wave" section when purchasing a copy of Joy Division,s U.P on Vinyl!! Greetings from Bonnie Scotland to ALL DEVO heads!
You should make up your mind to learn the difference between 'to', 'two', and 'too', that way you could use the correct one every time so you wouldn't end up coming off sounding like an ignorant moron.
Amazing story there Dukes. I live in sharon, Pennsylvania and it's about 80 miles from Akron, Ohio and that's where Devo is from. I seen them in Pittsburgh, pa. In 1979. I was 14 yrs old. Bought a hit of acid right at the door. Needless to say a fine night of entertainment ensued. Cheers from USA
I watched this, and immediately had to watch it again. Now it's one of my favorite video live performances. They were really "up" for this performance. Nerds rule!

For sure mate. That guitar heavy sound was superbly joined by what I believe to be the greatest keyboard synth sounds in rock.Love the first 4 albums, but especially brilliant were the first 2.Duty Now hasn't been matched in its genre by any artists/bands ever since it's release over 40yrs ago I believe.They are true masters who back up their musical legacy with excellent live performances.
Saw these guys in Norman, OK, after a memorial service for my Grandmother in 1982. My cousin had an extra ticket and invited me to go with him. Turns out the the seats were row 2, center. Maybe the best concert I've been to (out of maybe 200?). Back in the day, they were fucking crazy. Guitarist literally did a kneepad slide of the stage into our row. Turned to the girl in front of me and tore her top off. Jumped on-stage w/o missing a beat. Shortly after, a roadie gave her and her friend backstage passes! Good times!
this performance includes my favorite version of smart patrol/Mr. DNA. they absolutely destroyed during that part of the song, it was insane. and the way it transitions into gut feeling and Gerry goes "shhh" is almost hypnotizing. amazing performance
I was at this show. Yeah I am old school and one of the oldest people in the crowd and you can see that the younger crowd did not understand and/or appreciate DEVO. No matter I always have and went to the shoe specifically to see them. At the old Irvine Meadows Amphitheatre, Irvine, CA. yeah remember. saw all the Oingo Boingo shows there too
I was at this show too. They had hardly any fans in attendance but won the audience. They stole the show from the likes of Metallica, Soundgarden, Rancid and the Ramones.
What a privilege to have seen this concert. DEVO - You've made a unique and unmatched musical art experience, unlike any other group or band before or since. I'm managing to get through all the live videos from your beginning at Kent State to the 80s Cruise. You guys are a total inspiration.
Seen a lot shows in my day and I experienced Devo in small Venue in San Diego around 1980 and it was one of the most entertaining shows I’ve ever experienced!
I love Mark's blooper on "Come Back Jonee," where he runs over to his keyboard after the 1st verse, only to realize it's not time for the synth solo yet.
I was at this show, and Devo replace another band, those that were lucky enough to see 👀 these music Time travelers, now they have pasted through are most recent decades of music pasted, and now they are heading into are music future and beyond, thank you it was a blast▫️◽🔲🔳🔲◽▫️
1996 at Lollapalooza, Irvine Meadows that was hollow ground for rock history, I was in loge seating, unreal that someone from that time, and cool thanks.
She sings from somewhere you can't see She sits in the top of the greenest tree She sends out an aroma of undefined love It drips on down in a mist from above…the most romantic song I've ever heard.
This made me cry it was so great, Devo was my favorite band as a teen and hearing them tear it up like this after so many years floods me with awesome menories of my youth, I say God bless Devo!
I loved this, DEVO has always been one of my favorite groups. I saw them live twice in Reno once at the Centennial Colisium and once at the Old Gym up at the University of Nevada both times in the very early 80s. At the gym i was right up at the stage with no one else in front of me, just the band! I actually met Mark up at the KOZZ radio station and he signed my tickets!
wow cool..people don't understand how good these guys were musically..they were not fakes. I was never a big fan but as a musician respected their talents.
Once again Spuds,,,,I was at this show. DEVO kicked boot, and the crowd responded well. people were high fiving,, pogoing,,and would not shut the heck up during the songs.. the crowd screamed through every tune, and were happy to see DEVO,,some for the first time. they were surprised at how DEVO ACTUALLY ROCKS.
Punk Fuckin Rock. They owned that bbq crowd. Probably would have lost my last marble being there. My first cassette tape as a 10 year old kid was New Traditionalists. Never gets old.
Love DEVO,. Seen them at the Sana Monica Civic Center back in their Hey Day!!!! People going nuts!!! One guy tried climbing up on stage and was greeted by a Doc Martin to the face by the lead guitarist 🥾💥!!!!! Never missed a note. It was freak'n Epic!!!! I'll never forget that night. 😂😂😂😂😂😂
That's AWESOME...seem them with (Lollapalooza) my teenage daughter wayyy back then with many other GREAT bands...she LOVE them...showed her the music I grew up with...GREAT bonding moment
I was at this show. August 3rd 1996 at Irvine Meadows, Lollapalooza. For anyone curious the line-up was Screaming trees Devo Rancid The ramones A martial arts display Soundgarden Metallica. There was an opener before screaming trees but I forgot their name…I was 14 years old. Yeah most of the people including me were there for sound garden and Metallica. At least that day turned me onto the Ramones. Again I was 14.
YOU HAVE MADE MY DAY posting this. I saw them at 'Palooza and they were fucking amAZING! I told my gf who good they sounded...new, not like the 80's and how they stayed current, and you posted it! IT was so good to see.

Wendy, I played the B52s the other day and immediately thought of DEVO. I was a big fan
Fan de DEVO depuis 1979 et subjugué par cette incroyable performance !!!...
I was there and it was freaking Legendary!
Simplesmente fantásticos!!! Rio de Janeiro. Brasil.
I saw them in Riverside when i was a Teen and they were Awesome!
they need to be in the R&R Hall of Fame...like that means anything..but still...
I still remember their debut on SNL…..it was pretty mind blowing at that time. I’m glad I was there to watch them.
Great performance! No props, music speaks for itself...enjoyed this
It's a beautiful world we live in with Devo
This is just my favorite live performance. I love this video so much, oh my!!!
This made me cry it was so great, Devo was my favorite band as a teen and hearing them tear it up like this after so many years floods me with awesome menories of my youth, I say God bless Devo!
Another awsome DEVO's concert.
we are DEVO!!
I love this band!
I loved this, DEVO has always been one of my favorite groups. I saw them live twice in Reno once at the Centennial Colisium and once at the Old Gym up at the University of Nevada both times in the very early 80s. At the gym i was right up at the stage with no one else in front of me, just the band! I actually met Mark up at the KOZZ radio station and he signed my tickets!
Most entertaining band on the planet,cartoon rock at its finest. God bless Devo for making my life so much more enjoyable.
they knew to do all their old rock punk tunes...so cool every song, thanks
Blown away by this amazing Gig, Excellent editing and sound quality. Outstanding performance, they sure don't make 'em like this any more
such a great band in concert and sounds like the original recording that is my boys DEVO love em
If you haven't heard DEVO Muzak it's great! Mark is genious. That drummer rules big time !
Unreal performance! Devo at their best!
wow cool..people don't understand how good these guys were musically..they were not fakes. I was never a big fan but as a musician respected their talents.
Once again Spuds,,,,I was at this show. DEVO kicked boot, and the crowd responded well. people were high fiving,, pogoing,,and would not shut the heck up during the songs.. the crowd screamed through every tune, and were happy to see DEVO,,some for the first time. they were surprised at how DEVO ACTUALLY ROCKS.
Punk Fuckin Rock. They owned that bbq crowd. Probably would have lost my last marble being there. My first cassette tape as a 10 year old kid was New Traditionalists. Never gets old.
Calling Devo punk rock is like calling AC/DC heavy metal
DEVO ROCKS ..its that simple.
Love DEVO,. Seen them at the
Sana Monica Civic Center back in their Hey Day!!!!
People going nuts!!! One guy tried climbing up on stage and was greeted by a Doc Martin to the face by the lead guitarist 🥾💥!!!!!
Never missed a note. It was freak'n Epic!!!! I'll never forget that night.
😂😂😂😂😂😂
Devo performs at Irvine Meadows, California. Lollapalooza 1996
1 of the best bands ever assembled no question In the history of Music
That's AWESOME...seem them with (Lollapalooza) my teenage daughter wayyy back then with many other GREAT bands...she LOVE them...showed her the music I grew up with...GREAT bonding moment
These Guys are a Well Oiled Machine! Always Loved Em!
Amazing set and that version of 'Mr. DNA' was burning!
What. A. Set.
Amazing to see them keep pulling out the hits
Thanks for the music DEVO, your work here is never done
This tour came to Atlanta. They were excellent but it was outdoors. It was in the90’s. Damn hot
Greatest rock band ever.
I was at this show. August 3rd 1996 at Irvine Meadows, Lollapalooza. For anyone curious the line-up was
Screaming trees
Devo
Rancid
The ramones
A martial arts display
Soundgarden
Metallica.
There was an opener before screaming trees but I forgot their name…I was 14 years old. Yeah most of the people including me were there for sound garden and Metallica. At least that day turned me onto the Ramones. Again I was 14.
YOU HAVE MADE MY DAY posting this. I saw them at 'Palooza and they were fucking amAZING! I told my gf who good they sounded...new, not like the 80's and how they stayed current, and you posted it! IT was so good to see.
Re-Discovering DEVO! So freaking good. Thanks, SNL for that.
Fuck, they're good...
