DEVO to bring '50 Years of De-Evolution' tour to Fillmore Detroit this summer
Whip it good, Detroit. DEVO, the New Wave band with "energy dome" hats that look like upside-down flower pots, is heading to the Fillmore Detroit this June for '50 Years of De-Evolution... Continued!' — a farewell tour that began in 2023 and is finally making its way to Motor City. The band will perform in 18 cities throughout North America this spring and summer. DEVO rose to fame in the late 1970s and early 1980s with "Whip It" hitting No. 14 on the Hot Billboard chart in 1980. The band's 1977 song "Jocko Homo," from its debut album, introduced the philosophy of de-evolution and featured the chant, "Are we not men? We are DEVO!"

Get ready for a three-hour live concert of ‘SNL' musical guests
Not enough for you? How about the Roots, Bonnie Raitt, DEVO, Post Malone, or Miley Cyrus? You'll also see a few rockers appearing without the bands that first landed them as musical guests on the show, including Eddie Vedder, Chris Martin, and Jack White. The list rounds off with Lady Gaga, Jelly Roll, Bad Bunny, Brandi Carlile, Brittany Howard, David Byrne, Mumford & Sons, and Preservation Hall Jazz Band. There might still be more names to come, though it's unclear how much time each act gets to perform. Just one Miley song? A few?
