Show Notes

DEVO DOES DISNEY!  Richard and Bonnie from the band Bolonium help us answer the pertinent questions surrounding this album.  Questions like: What was Disney thing? And… that’s about it. What was Disney thinking? Really?!? Did they just pick Devo’s name out of a hat at random?  Did they really think this would work? Why hadn’t anyone bothered to look at Devo’s lyrics before green-lighting this project? Is there any band that would be worse for this Disney-fied treatment?  Will there ever be a 3.0 version of Devo? Was Devo trying to rush this out before Disney realized their mistake? Q: Are we not kids? A: We are Dev2.0. Really, what were the executives at Disney thinking???
