Devo

[Sir HC]

I am trying to remember what the ticket prices were when they played the old 9:30 club in the late 80s/early 90s.  Thought at least $25.  I think Eddie now has my ticket stub.

fuck this man.. i had to miss Devo when they played Central Park in 2004 by a mere few hours. Stellastarr and Yeah Yeah Yeahs were also on that bill.. would have been a good show. I did get into manhattan just in time to see Suicide at the knit that night though.. which owned my soul.

[shoot ur shot]

and the show at central park was only 35$!!!

This will date me for sure but when I saw Devo at the Tower Theater in Philly on December 30,  1978 it cost $6.50 !  Duty Now For the Future, baby !  David Johansen was the opening act.

 Please lower the ticket prices of the DEVO concert I have been to a plenty o' concerts at your fine establishment, but have not had to pay $55 I have had to pay service charges but that I can deal with if Devo ticket prices are a bit lower so that students like me can afford to go and see a great event such as this!!
 
 Thanks!

I think the club has to cover a guarantee and doesn't really have much control over the prices.  You should contact Mothersbaugh and Co.  Besides, it's 2005; the whole purpose of them touring is to make a quick buck.  Don't give in.  It's not the real thing anymore anyway.

Bumbershoot is great but to compare the 930 Club to an abridged arena show in Seattle is nuts.  Actually my friend is flying from Seattle to DC for this one.  Can't wait. Cheers, T

They only had a handful of good songs off of their two or three good albums from the early 80's. An abridged show should be perfect.

good thing the show wont be littered with casual fans then...

Every Devo album since 1981 has received less than three stars on allmusic.com. Are the critics that off?
