PingWi-Fi Asks Devo-esque Question: ‘Are We Not Twins?’

March 19th, 2009 · Tags:Arts · Satire · Wi-Fi

“It’s not to late to whip it.  Whip it good.”

I ain’t gonna lie (because there is no time for that) … I was at a loss as to what to wear to interview Mark Mothersbaugh, frontman for Devo (and brilliant soundtrack dude).  I don’t have a Devo helmet, nor their trademark spud collar.  Hmmm … I opted for something gray, uniform and somewhat man machine-like.

Ha … I’ll be, if I didn’t get backstage only to find Mothersbaugh dressed the same way — nerd haircut, gray shirt, silver glasses.  Obviously we are brothers from anutha mutha — if not nerdy twins seperated at birth.

Are We Not Twins?

I have much more to report — concert review, one-on-one interview, photos, but meanwhile just want to get up this preview.

If you get the chance, DO NOT miss Devo showcase or speaking opps. at SXSW.  Mothersbaugh is a visionary in music, intellect, art, culture, communications … Internet.  We had a great interview … until the end, when the egos clashed — seperated sibling rivalry?

Separated Siblings Rivalry?
