This right here is enough to prove that devo belongs in the rock and roll hall of fame and this is just one interview from one member!

I like how the Blondie members interrupt the interview not once, but twice. First to call Jerry a fucking liar, and second to call him a wine snob.

A genuine guy, class act.

I went to the tour "New Traditionalists" tour in 1981 in DFW and there was treadmills and even choreography to. I was a freshman in high school.

I was at that Radio City show in '81! Halloween Night. One of my top 5 all-time favorite concerts ever.

Wish I could have been there but I was a West coast kid. I got to spend New Year's Eve 1980 at Perkins Palace in Pasadena with the Mystic Knights of the Oingo Boingo though. That was a great show too.

I would have expected this from any of the Devo guys, but it's... unusual to hear such colorful rock life stories told so matter of factly with any hint of a bragging or embellishing tone.

If I’d been booed off the stage at Knebworth you can bet I’d be bragging about it! Dead boys STiL dEaD ; )

I _knew_ he was gonna say Bob 1. After all, he traded his blue cloud guitar for some cocaine. Happy ending: a fan came across it and returned it to Bob.

I was at that Houston show at the Cullen Auditorium in ‘82. Rumor has it that some rich kid judge’s son with law enforcement connections went to the lobby to piss or something, and then couldn’t get back inside because it was so packed in there, so he called the HPD and the Fire Dept to bust up the show. He probably just had his panties in a bunch because they wouldn’t play ‘Whip It’ over and over. It was very confusing, because yes... as Gerry pointed out, the cops were backstage, or side-stage or whatever... and none of us could see them, so we had no idea what was really going on. It was hot as fuck in there and overcrowded. However, all those “fuck you’s”, as I recall, weren’t being directed at DEVO. We were telling security to fuck off, because they cut the lights and were yelling at us that the gig was cancelled and we were all going to have to go home. The crowd was already pretty amped up, and when they pulled Gerry off the stage a riot almost broke out, and then when we got outside we saw all the cop cars and fire trucks. The next day it was on the news - “DEVO arrested for overbooking show”, and one of the local papers even had a picture of DEVO in shackles.

Also, Cullen Auditorium gigs in those days were notorious for being overbooked. Saw some great shows there.

Two of my favourite bands. Lovely! These aren't the first amusing tales from the road I've seen Gerald tell!

I love Midnight Dixie Runners!

Cool video, great band, gotta love anytime Debbie gets in the frame she's so photogenic...DEVO really was one of the coolest art rock bands ever

I was there too. There were so many bodies in there and it was so damn hot that you could literally see a cloud of steam forming over the crowd. Remember the rumor about some judge’s son calling the cops to come shut down the show, all because he went outside and couldn’t get back in?

Another great GC interview. Damn Jerry, you’ve got the BEST HAIR!!!

That was excellent.

Love these ROCKERS!!!

as soon as he said bob mothersbaugh (and himself) as the partyers, i though "bob=cocaine". then he says "involving cocaine and wine... ". bob1 traded his guitar for some cocaine. i don't do drugs, but i love the smell of cocaine. btw, 5 points? stupid.

Lol, actually, he was known as "Elvis Ramone". I wish more of that story was known. Johnny said it was Clem's playing, but like Olaf said, he is great. They only gave him a few days to prepare for his first gig with them, I would think it would take more time than that to develop stamina for their live show (it's physically, though not at all technically, challenging). I have to guess it was about money. They would have to pay Clem more than they would like to pay their drummer, perhaps.

Johnny said they had to part with "Elvis" because he couldn't keep up. Clem said it was the hardest he'd ever worked and was exhausted after the show. So, they called Marky who, luckily, had cleaned up his act and was ready to rock.

so what happened after they threw him in with the thugs and woke them all up???

Well, according to one account, the guards repeatedly asked the band to sing "Whip It" loudly all night long. The thugs didn't like that too much. There's actually an interview with Mark that was done the next day for a Houston TV station. It's here on KZread, search around for it.

Who really knows? All I know is that Houston was a really scary city back in those days. On any given night if you were in the holding tank, you were going to be amongst some serious psychos, thugs, and violent creeps. The cops back then weren’t much different than the criminals. I was at that show, and once we heard that they were actually in jail and being booked... we knew it was going to be bad. I guess nothing serious happened. Just a lot of harassment and no sleep. The fucked part is that apparently the whole reason the cops even showed up, is because some rich kid judge’s son had daddy call in the calvalry... all because he got up to piss and couldn’t get back into the show.

Chris Nemec - Are you referring to that ‘82 interview he gave with Showtime, where he mainly talks about the Church of the Sub-Genius and it’s ‘god’... Bob? I think that interview was actually conducted in Dallas (where the CoTSG is based), shortly after their Houston jail fracas... but he never discusses what actually happened that night in the HPD holding tank.

Jerry was a good sport, though somewhat (understandably) annoyed by the intrusive antics of Blondie…
