THE AKRON SHOW

PUNK PRESCRIPTION PLAYLIST 10-14-09

In honor of DEVO’s upcoming performances here in San Francisco next month, this week it’s all about their hometown of Akron, OH and the scene that exploded there in the late 1970s. You’ve probably heard of the WAITRESSES, you may have heard of RACHEL SWEET, but how about the BIZARROS, RUBBER CITY REBELS and TIN HUEY? Their songs and stories will abound on today’s romp through a Midwest city 30 years back.
