The Tripwire Presents: An Interview with Devo at the Levi's®/FADER Fort in Austin, TX thefader.com Twitter: / thefader Facebook: / thefader Tumblr: / thefader
Bob Casale was a good old pal of mine. Hung out with him and worked together many times. Nice to see him talking a bit more in this one. Fun cool guy...
This is easily the first time I've seen either Bob 1 or Bob 2 talk in an interview. It's good to hear them speak especially Bob 2 here. They need to tell us their views of Devolution too.
I know that members of the band have mentioned that Gerald talked the most in interviews because of him being the most concise and clear but it’s nice to hear everyone, especially Bob 1 & 2 talking a bit more :] I also really love the kind of father-son energy going on between the OG band members and Josh hehe!
@fmpyoyoqueen93 Bob Casale: guitar/keyboards Mark Mothersbaugh: lead vocals/keyboards Bob Mothersbaugh: guitar Josh Freese: drums Weird that Jerry Casale isn't there. He's always been the spokeman and pretty much the leader of the band.
they never seriously claimed to have a big 'new' idea. there is nothing 'socialist' about devo and their music is the polar opposite of hippy. devo's entire image is openly manufactured so i don't see how they can be hypocritical or snobby either. but don't let facts get in the way of your apparently unceasing quest to ascribe political ideals you don't like to everything else you don't like as a sort of broken insult.
I have been a Devo Fan since 1979 and i will buy the upcoming CD, but i am getting TIRED of the continual "Whinning" by these guys about the way "society" is. It's not perfect but deal with it... always Negative!! I keep hoping 1 day these guys will say something POSITIVE with their Music. And i guess it's to ask, for them to actually DO SOMETHING to change it???

Insightful Mark...
It's nice to hear the Bobs speak, especially Bob 2. Gerry usually dominates the conversation.

The lads are still keen!
Brought to you by LEVI'S!!!! Hehehe.
Hanson was mentioned in a "Big Dirty Farmers" song.

Holy lord, you've totally missed the point of what they're doing
