OCTOBER 28th, 2006
SAN FRANCISCO, CA - BILL GRAHAM CIVIC AUD.

Halloween Party at the Bill Graham, and many dressed up for the occasion. Though the age range of the crowd was very mixed, there was definitely a high contingency of very young spuds, each reporting for duty with Energy Dome and Radiation Suit. Alex Brunelle of Booji Boy's Basement: "I got the whole band to autograph my Spudboys band t-shirt, and that's now one of my most prized possessions. Bob1 actually remembered my name when I met him backstage! It was a total blast just chatting with him and Mark at various points throughout the night, and I really felt at home amongst everyone I hung out with that night."

After the show, everyone headed over to the DEVO after party at Cafe Du Nord, featuring a few live sets by Mongolounge/Mongoloid, SF's well-known Devo Tribute band. This was the closest thing I had ever seen to what I'd imagined Club DEVO to be. Mark Mothersbaugh, Gerald Casale, Bob Mothersbaugh, and Josh Freese were all there, as was most of the DEVO crew, Bow Wow Wow, and A Flock Of Seagulls. Three cheers for Cafe Du Nord, Mongoloid and super-spudess Vanessa for such a great afterparty!
