As a jaded, balding, 40-something that was planning on bringing a bunch of jaded, balding 40-somethings to the show, this is bad news.
 
 The  Club Devo  website has not been updated since 18 July, so there is no information there on these rather revolting developments.

I'm not a jaded, balding 40something, and true, I will be bummed if this is true, but having that $60 back in my account would ease the sting a bit...

 Unless of course you ordered online, then your 400% markup "surcharge" will conveniently be witheld.

I would assume that if the D.C. date is truly cancelled,someone from the club will chime in very soon with a confirmation.....or then again maybe they won't.......

Sorry, I just figured most 40somethings are balding. Maybe 40something geek rock fans have low levels of testosterone and manage to avoid balding.   ;)

"Due to matters beyond their control"
 
 Meaning they couldn't find enough $55 ticket buyers?

Does not look good. Some venues and pollstar are still saying DEVO is playing and other no longer have them on their schedules. As for ??Due to matters beyond their control? that is posted on the Bumbershoot festival web site, I am also going with the could not find enough people to part with $55 a ticket. I was one of the people that did, since I knew the show was going to be good even that I was not thrilled about the cost.

He has very little body hair, which would indicate low levels of testosterone, wouldn't it?
