3-DEVO Live!! Best sound ever!

This is the 3-DEVO Halloween show like you've never heard it before! I took the superb audio from a live show off the same tour and synched it to this footage. It was not easy! There are some moments where the 2 shows vary so much that I had to put in some filler animation to keep the synch. Enjoy!

Amazing songs, amazing sound, all in all these shows are the best ive seen - perfect

This is just unbelievable... almost 40 years ago I was sitting right there in that concert hall while I was attending college in BU!!!! One of the best concerts I have ever been!!! Probably unbeknownst to the members of the band, DEVO was HUGE success in Venezuela at that time. I used to be a DJ in Caracas back then, and literally ALL songs from that concert were top hits in that country!!! Definitely way ahead of their time, these guys were big innovators and leaders of a trend in music that still sounds fresh and contagious...

I don't think most of us would know who DEVO is without Alan. I'd even put him the same category as Bonham and Peart, in that he was the absolute perfect drummer for the band that he was in. It's easy to forget the load he carries.

Dec. 82, I saw this show in OK C, my brother Ryan and our buddy John went to this awesome Saw them in 2015 ish. Still awesome !!!

I saw DEVO in Sydney in the early 80's, they were way ahead of their time musically and in performance. They were using treadmills on stage way before Madonna claimed them as her BIG thing in the late 90's during her Girlie tour.

This is by far the most intense performance ive seen yet by Devo. I cant imagine seeing them live!!!

Love it! I was fortunate to get to see Devo's "New Traditionalists" Tour in about 1982ish in Oklahoma City, and have been through being cool every since.

The band most ahead of its time and always underrated.

"Big Mess", "Explosions" and "Jocko Homo" are missing for obvious audio/video sync troubles ("Big Mess" had sync problems during the live performance, "Explosions" was performed only once during the 3-D show so there's no "HD" recording of the live version and "Jocko" was extended with a little Mark sketch only performed for the TV capture).

My favorite DEVO album. Unbelievable ideas, songs, and sound design. A pinnacle of new wave.

I saw them on this tour at Southampton England, definitely a stand out gig of all the many bands I've seen. Alan Myers really made the whole band better, like Topper Headon with the Clash. They hadn't toured Duty Now For The Future so no support, they did the first hour of the first two albums, the curtain came down, then the second half was the energy dome hats and what this gig shows. A great night.

Great job on the video syncing.... DEVO had a complete nightmare getting the live show in sync with the visuals in the background. MIDI technology was basically brand new....SMPTE synching the video was a technical super feat... You hardly see any bands doing this even today, much less in 3D....geniuses

[MrPhillippino]

There will never be another band like DEVO!!!! TIMELESS.

[dalmas]

More than 30 years listening to these musics almost everyday and i can't stop doing....lol Thanks

[dianebongo]

Saw them in the 80s we all wore the yellow jump suits

[gilwood]

Greatest live band ever ...Thank you guys for all the years of amazement ...Still takes me back many years

[massiveidiot]

28:08 the E-Z Listening arrangement of Girl U Want....but with lyrics !! Love it !! Thanks for the awesome vid btw, the synch is really good.
