Trivia / Info[]

  • The video of the 15 track Sundance gig and rehearsal is paired with the first DVD reissue of The Men Who Make The Music
  • The soundtrack LP was issued on 2014-4-19 as a Record Store Day picture disc release. It was limited to 1,750 copies [3] and included a copy of the DVD.
  • MVD Audio included boldly devolved visuals resembling a bootleg LP release
  • It should've come with a free download code on a DropCard to use at http://www.dropcards.com/butchdevo/content/index.php
  • Beck opened for DEVO and played "Loser".[4]
  • DEVO wore stereotypical striped prison garb. They began the show laying spread eagle on the stage. DEVO was patted down and introduced by Cheech Marin.
  • This is the first live performance with Josh Freese. Mark wanted this 1996-1-26 gig to be the last DEVO performance[5]... he was talked into doing more.

  • Booji flung “35mm film clips” and brown mashed potatoes that he scooped from his diaper. [DEVO: Unmasked, page 143]
  • The "Sundance Gig" was a private show for Apple employees at The Arena in Park City, Utah, and the last show associated with the '96 Sundance Film Festival [7]
