DEVO Rocks the Race Track

DEVO Rocks the Race Track

Seventies new wave band DEVO appeared last night on the infield of the Del Mar Race Track, and they rocked the place!

Although not quite as hyper as in their heyday, DEVO sounded just as good, and were every bit as entertaining.
The concert started with an instructive film on dressing for a DEVO concert – very helpful. Then the band appeared onstage in the little red fire hydrant hats that we know them by and performed one hit after another, including Whip It (of course), Girl U Want, Freedom of Choice, Peek-a-Boo!, That’s Good, Gut Feeling, Gates of Steel, Secret …read more

Admittedly, I may have been overdressed. Before leaving for the races, I checked out “Fashion tips for women who want to look fabulous at …read more
