Founding DEVO member Bob Casale died yesterday of conditions leading to heart failure, according to his brother Gerald. This follows the cancer death of drummer Alan Myers last fall.

Rumors were bulding that a 2014 DEVO tour was to be assembled and with such a huge loss it remains to be seen what might happen.

Bob2 was 61.

That's a bummer, but we all gotta go...

The wife and I rocked "Oh no, It's DEVO" in his honor last night.

...and with Gepetto mentioning of Jocko Homo, if you guys haven't seen the thematically similar "Idiocracy", please do so. It's a sad, funny take on the present, represented as the future. That movie cracks me up every time.

"You mean like out the toilet?" I actually worked with this guy. Only drank Gatorade- would not drink water, "cause it tastes bad." WOW! I weep for humanity.
