March 6, 2009
Devo To Play Seminal Album At Special London GigNew Wave pioneers Devo are set to play a special London gig this summer that will see them play their seminal album 'Q: Are We Not Men? A: We Are Devo?' in its entirety.

The Ohio natives will play the gig at the Kentish Town Forum on May 6 ahead of their scheduled appearance at All Tomorrow's Parties: The Fans Strike Back.

Released in 1978, 'Q: Are We Not Men? A: We Are Devo?' was produced by Brian Eno and reached number 12 in the UK charts and number 78 on the Billboard chart.
