Holey Domes! Claimed from Bootleggers!

Holey Moley! A De-Flowered Dome? WHAT HAPPENED HERE?!

It can be a constant battle protecting one’s trademark in the music industry. These less-than perfect Blue Energy Domes were confiscated from one bootlegger in an attempt to re-claim what was taken from DEVO, Inc.

These are made of VERY sturdy plastic, and the dimensions are perfect, but they tend to have scrapes & scuffs, as the manufacturers in China aren’t as careful as the USA factory we use for our Official Energy Domes. On top of that, the brainiac bootleggers put a DAMN HOLE in the last tier of the domes for their company tag. GO FIGURE! This hole’s for u!

Rare DEVO Vinyl Raffled at DEVOtional 2022!

ATTN DEVO COLLECTORS: Our DEVOtional 2022 Raffle will include VERY rare DEVO Vinyl!

A limited edition 7″ vinyl record was released for DEVOtional 2020 to celebrate the 20th anniversary of the fan gatherings in Ohio. Only 100 red vinyl singles were pressed and promised to the first 100 ticket buyers. Unfortunately the face-to-face event was cancelled because of the pandemic, so the celebration became a live online event. All the red singles were mailed to the lucky 100 ticket buyers.

In addition, 100 singles were pressed in blue vinyl for DEVO to offer on their website, and 100 on clear vinyl with alternate cover art sold by the Japanese record label. Both of those pressings sold out quickly.

BUT THERE’S MORE – We also had the 7″ pressed in VERY limited quantities in other various colors with hand numbered covers, which we’d planned on distributing at the 2020 event. ONE OF EACH OF THESE 4 PREVIOUSLY UNAVAILABLE SINGLES WILL BE RAFFLED at our DEVOTIONAL 2022 event on SEPT. 17th in Ohio! The raffle that night will also include other highly devolved items to be announced later.

We do not plan on making these singles available for sale at any time. See below for prize details.

1 of each PREVIOUSLY UNAVAILABLE 7″s for DEVOtional 2022 Raffle:

DEVOtional cover / White Vinyl / #009/050
DEVO cover / White Vinyl / #009/030
Booji Boy Black Paint / Japan cover / White Vinyl / #017/019

You can find more info on these 7″ releases at Discogs.com.
