I have Ralf and Florian's autographs on my cassette copy of "Computer World" from the 2004 Warfield shows. Possibly my most prized possession behind the Devo signatures I've obtained over the years. Thank you Michael!
It is absolutely impossible to overstate Kraftwerk's influence upon much of modern music. It is as though they invented the guitar and violin and piano. Beyond legends.
I’ve seen Kraftwerk twice in the USA, a rare opportunity. It’s a bit like seeing Bigfoot riding a unicorn. They were so ahead of the curve and the times their music from the 1970’s and 80’s sound like contemporary music. Computerworld basically described the internet in 1981. Uncanny and insightful. I’d go see them again given the opportunity.
Those creepy ambient sounds at the start when the bass kicks in, almost made me fall over when I saw them in 2018. Was standing right in front of the stage lol. They have an amazing sound system. Amazing recording!
Devo and Kraftwerk touring and even playing shows in the same city/country is just so awesome and surreal at the same time. I wonder if Devo and Kraftwerk got to meet each other? Very good video btw, this footage is immaculate 😎🔥
Just fantastic.my firstlove to electronic music comes to synergy,tomita klaus shulze,and then tangerine dream,vangelis,jean M jarre,later kraft werk from krautrock scene.a little regret i wasn't listen earlier,its very cool.therefore i saw they played electroacostic on frontier of progressive rock video.they are trully genius artists.
I saw Devo in Melbourne at Palais on 6/12. (I even think i saw you film us in the merch line.) Then I saw Kraftwerk on 8/12. It was one of the best weeks ever.
Thanks!
Heyyy...Wow...what ia THIS? Superchat comment??
Thanks a heap, Michael!
Whoa!
Devo and a KW fan?! My bro! I once met Ralf and Florian in Detroit 98. I treasure the RA 45 they signed for me.

nice recording!
Great catch Pilmer. Love you ❤ We're All DEVO.
I first heard Computer World in the 70s and loved it. Devo seemed like a natural progression after that. Thanks for posting Michael!

Pretty cool! I always thought Will Forte from SNL looked like Florian, the late group cofounder with Ralf!

How that was so fun! How did you get that sound so clear? Soundboard out?
I was standing right in front of the FOH soundboard...but it was just my phone recording the room audio. Thanks for commenting!

Couldn't get to Devo & couldn't get to Kraftwerk. The flu kicked my arse big time.
So annoyed we couldn't meet up.
Are devo going to keep doing concerts after they’re gone?
Could be...! 🥔🥔🥔🥔
Isn't there, like, only one member still alive?
There are previous members that are still alive (Karl Bartos, Wolfgang Flur) but just Ralf Hutter as one of the two founding members.
I'm glad these guys are still going in wake of death of co-founder Florian Schneider's passing..... It's been a tuff 5 years for a lot of people....
