“In 2022, I swore I’d never get on a tour bus again” says The B-52s' Fred Schneider in an official release, “but we were careful to say to our fans that we would still perform in special situations that don’t require all of the awful tour travel. Our Vegas residency is going great, and when we were offered the chance to do a small run of shows with DEVO, we all said this is an extraordinary opportunity we couldn't say no to.”
"The B-52s had one of the best sounds of any of the bands out there in the late 70’s early 80’s," explains Mark Mothersbaugh of DEVO. "'Rock Lobster' is one of my favorite songs - DEVO used to sing it to Booji Boy after DEVO shows. It was either fate or luck or the SNL anniversary that brought us all together to create this amazing chance to go out on tour. All I can say is Cosmic Devolution is REAL!"
Tickets will be available starting with CITI and AMEX presales beginning Monday, June 16. Additional presales will run throughout the week ahead of the general on-sale beginning Friday June 20 at 10 AM local time at LiveNation.com.
