Sad news on the music front

[KiwiGeek]

Bob Casale, guitarist, founding member and sound engineer of New Age group Devo, has died at the age of 61 from heart failure.

They were here in NZ a couple of years ago for one of the "A Day On The Green" gigs with Simple Minds and The Church in 2012. They were still as good as ever.

The ranks of talented musicians keeps shrinking.

R.I.P. axeman.

I couldn't name a single member of Devo but I sure danced my drunken socks off at the Aranui Tavern many a night. Good times!

Didn't the human metronome just die late last year too?

It's a conspiracy!

[James Deuce]

Yep, but Josh Freese had been filling in for quite a few years. No conspiracy. Just death.

Many a good party had bopping away to them when a youngun. Something a little rarer than the mainstream.
