Following the sudden death of guitarist Bob Casale, Devo has announced dates for a summer tour. A portion of the proceeds will go to Casale's family.
According to Rolling Stone, the band plans to revisit material from their early, experimental years between 1974-1977, before they signed to Warner Bros.
"A once-in-a-lifetime opportunity to see Devo perform the legendary, experimental music the band created between 1974-1977 in Akron Ohio!" the press release states. "The tour is dedicated to the memory of Robert Casale, (A.K.A. Bob 2), one of the 5 original Devo band members who is now touring the universe."
A fund has been put in place on the crowdfunding site GoFundMe with a goal of raising $100,000 for Casale's family. Click here to donate. Check out the tour dates below.
