found this picture of the 1977 poster on the internet. I have one somewhere in my "files."

That's great! Do you have any stories about this event? Seems like it would have been interesting to see Devo before they were MTV famous and the like.

a friend had them play at her New Years Eve party in 1975. so we knew them as part of the local art scene. some of their earliest writing appeard in the local mag "Shelly's." & r.j.s. publishd Mark Mothersbaugh's Boogie Boy book.

Alex, just sitting here and Gary--no prevous discussion about them at all--read to me from the paper that DEVO is making another album.
