We're slackers...

We don't update The P5 every day like we used to. So when we slack off, just use the search box up there on the right. Yeah, the red box, that's it. Search The P5 Archives. You'll be glad you did.

I got the Dev2.0 CD/DVD where they got a 'band' of kids to mime to new versions of 12 or so Devo classics. All the music was played by Devo but the girl sings real lead vocals and is quite good and was a good way to hear great Devo songs with female vox. Many fans would cringe but it's challenging and not as bad as it sounds. CN
