Relevant fact: The band once extended the song 'Jocko Homo' for THIRTY. MINUTES. They were, indeed, determined to piss off the crowd. No, I'm not joking, that was their aim.
@hotelmario510 It's interesting you say that. I saw them play a live show in the late 70s in Portland, Oregon, but the show began with a FILM of the band playing on the stage and that continued for so long that my friend and I started to believe that there wasn't going to be a live show at all. It was more than one song. They did finally come out after we had given up and must have changed costumes at least four times. Anyone else see this show?
@hotelmario510 yep. They we're opening for Sun Ra and they played for so long that he didn't get to play. During the 30 minute Jocko Homo an angry audience member came up and called them "a couple of assholes", to which Mark and the others responded, "Is he not a man?" "He is DEVO!"
I love extended versions of 80s music!!

@puppetMattster You should consider listening to some of Devo's stuff before Whip It. Much better.
