This article is about the Devo concert DVD. For the 1981 live EP, and expanded re-release, see DEV-O Live.

Devo Live is the fourth home video release by new wave band Devo, and their second DVD. Devo Live contains an entire performance from their 1996 reunion tour (part of the Lollapalooza tour event), filmed at Irvine Meadows, California. It was released in 2003.

Synopsis

The film details an entire live performance from Devo's 1996 reunion tour on Lollapalooza, opening for Metallica. The band performs a stripped down set consisting of songs from their first three albums. The band is in strong form and very energetic. However, the film itself has been criticized by fans for being poorly edited with rapid-fire cuts. Another criticism has been levelled at Rhino Records for their delays in producing the DVD and erroneous packaging.^[1]
