DEVOtional 2010

So, welcome to Ohio, home of construction- this was what we saw most of the way to Cleveland once we crossed the border. And boy, are they not in favor of signs warning you about it. There were multiple signs that said "90 - Both Lanes" which seemed to mean that, you know, both lanes would continue to be available for a while, and then suddenly there was one sign which looked like a giant black wedge with one straight arrow going right and a wiggly arrow going left. We debated what exactly they were trying to say for the next 500 feet (we decided perhaps a giant wedge of cheese had fallen into the road and in driving around it the more catastrophically worried people should go to the left) and then boom, we were on this 3/4 lane on the opposite side of the interstate. We've driven under these circumstances before, and gods know I complain about PennDOT a lot, but at least they have actual signs with words telling you that you're suddenly going to be expected to merge with a bunch of confused motorists and semi trucks who didn't understand the sign either, and you're all suddenly trying to get into this tiny, tiny lane in a sort of Road Warrior scramble.

Ken The Magic Corner God - AKA KRK Ryden - bravely plays his theremin while being attacked by a monster from Inframan.



The Great Balancing Act, all the way from New Brunswick, in the process of giving us both cheerfully laid-back Devo covers and their own Bobcentric melodies. A kinder, gentler de-evolution.



Nervous Energy and his excellent lineup of catchy tunes about awkward male prostitutes, accidentally marrying necrophiliacs, and metrosexual gnomes, amongst several others.



FartBarf, who were even better than last year. The hand-held digital camera in the video does not do their sound justice. Where's the full-length CD, guys? T-shirts are great and all, but we (and probably most of the other attendees) want an album ASAP!



The Spudboys!
