Alan Myers, the long-time drummer for the US new wave band Devo, has died, aged 58, after suffering from cancer. Myers died on Monday in Los Angeles. Not a household name, but he was known as 'The Human Metronome', when people first heard them, they thought he was a drum machine. My first band used to do this one...

A brilliant band, we used to play "Uncontrolable urge" and people used to ask who wrote it, a sad loss and i will be playing the above album this evening..
58, that's no age. 'Whip it' Always puts a grin on my face... [video=youtube;Xbt30UnzRWw]https://www.youtube.com/watch? v=Xbt30UnzRWw&feature=youtube_gdata_player[/video]
