Slightly Off-Topic: Devo!

An Ohio historical museum has received one of the red hats worn by Devo during their heyday in the 1980s. As the story in the Deseret News reports, the band made a name for itself with a number of hits, including "Whip it." The story notes:

The Ohio Historical Society says it has received a small collection of artifacts from the band and its official archivist. The items include stickers, T-shirts, costumes and a flower pot-style hat worn in the band's memorable 1980 video.

Three of the band's founding members grew up in Akron and met at Kent State University in the 1970s.

The group's name came from a theory the human race is in a process of devolution, which members read about in an anti-Darwinism pamphlet.

"Are we not men?"
