Who says you can't get no satisfaction?
I never saw DEVO but I did see Pearl Jam close the Spectrum in Philly, on Halloween. There was a ton of crazy stuff going on that day but near the top of the list was PJ coming out for an encore dressed in the hats and playing Whip It. As a first generation MTV kid, DEVO will forever hold a special place in my heart! Really unique piece, very cool gift. Congrats!

great timing! This was my Facebook memory for today. I had read (and watched videos) about that gig and am truly envious!! Also covered by sound garden, nirvana, Melvin's, big business, melt banana and many other great bands!
That week was bananas! The 4 PJ shows, the Phillies in the World Series, Halloween and a SEPTA strike (no trains or busses) to boot. The last cover was good too Star Spangled Banner, Hendrix style. Good memories.
