We are old enough to remember when “Whip It” was a hit, and certainly remember the sheer joy hearing “Genius of Love” for the first time. We first witnessed the Tom Tom Club live during their mini-set in the middle of the Talking Heads 1983 show at Forest Hills Tennis Stadium. So it was a real exciting surprise to see the listing for Devo and Tom Tom Club performing together at the McCarren Pool. The concert is this Thursday June 26, and we will be there, having purchased a ticket months ago.
Devo has permitted the free share of unofficial live recordings at their site for quite some time. The excellent Booji Boy site organizes the free trading among the fans, and provides a wealth of information about Devo live recordings. However, today we were doubly excited to receive an email directly from Chris Frantz that will permit our recording of the Tom Tom Club set. Thanks, Chris!
There are still tickets available for this show, which can be purchased through the Devo site [HERE].
