If displaying his most personal memories to the universe wasn't enough, Mothersbaugh, along with the other lifetime members of Devo, has also been busy creating the soundtrack to your life, almost literally. The four men, along with a couple other composers, created the music for HBO's first season of Big Love, the theme to Pee-wee's Playhouse (seriously), and the soundtrack to the majority of Wes Anderson's films. (And that barely scratches the surface of the group's prevalence in pop-culture. Those Apple vs. PC ads? Them. Rugrats' music? You guessed it.)
Check out info about the opening party on Craigslist, and get ready to whip it good. (What? You knew we'd fit that in somewhere. Even if it doesn't make much sense, Mothersbaugh would surely approve.) And, if you're a true fan, you can always pick up a Red Energy Dome Hat to wear to the show here.
