DEVO TO SUE McDONALD'S

NEW WAVE NIGEL
(no, it ain't based on me!)


Most Devotees were chuffed recently to see a Devo-eque character called New Wave Nigel wearing a Devo hat, Devo sunglasses and Devo jump suit being given away with McDonald's Happy Meals. By all account, he played a Devo-style tune too.


Only problem now seems to be that they didn't ask Devo and the group are not best pleased. Whether it's on moral grounds or the fact they're getting no income from it is open to debate, and whether they have a chance of being successful in any claim, but I do like Jerry's comments.
