This is one band that I should get into as I probably would like them. I did see them live before “the hits” but was turned off somewhat by their sparse staging (they used the theater lights) and their detached attitude. Now Devo.....that was a band that I could get into. From what I have read on the band it seems that the other three members or at least a couple of them really hold a grudge against David. He couldn’t have been the easiest person in the world to be in a band with.
