My favorite SXSW 2009 moment
The once and always mighty electro-art-punk spuds DEVO close out their amazing set with a rendition with “Beautiful World” with their elemental manchild mascot Booji Boy taking the lead vocal.
To me, seeing the original DEVO was every bit as great as seeing the original Kiss reunited with makeup on, hearing Alex Chilton and Jody Stephens playing as Big Star and watching David Bowie pull “Quicksand” into a set at Shea’s.
