Yesterday afternoon the Ohio Historical Center had several very special visitors.
Devo visits OHS
The four original members of the band DEVO came to the Ohio Historical Center after a sound check at the State Fair to see the exhibit Q: Are We Not Men A: We Are Devo. The exhibit features several items from the band’s history including an iconic energy dome helmet, yellow jump suit, and an anti-evolutionary pamphlet “Jocko Homo Heavenbound” that was the inspiration for the band’s de-evolutionary theory.
