### Recent Shows (2014 - )

Recent shows have shown DEVO with various shifting lineups especially regarding their drummer. For the Hardcore tour, Devo was stripped down to a four piece due to the death of Bob Casale in February of 2014, with Josh Freese playing drums and additional guest musicians joining the group either from behind the set or in front. At the United Center Residency, Devo became a quintet again, with Josh2 Hager taking over the duties of the late Bob2 Casale. Following their two date residency at the United Center , Josh1 Freese was largely unavailable, . During this period Jeff Friedl was their go to drummer on all dates except the 2018 Burger Boogaloo show where Fred Armisen took over duties.
