Bob Casale of Devo passed away yesterday, of heart failure at 61 years old.

Devo fans all over the world are feeling this loss. Bob 2, as he was known, was a good guy and a fine musician. He was a founding member of one of America's most original and innovative bands.

I have been an XL fan of Devo since I was in high school in the 1970's. Their records only sound better with time.

We were very lucky to have Bob Casale in our lives. Respect and condolences.
