11. Devo formed because of Kent State |
|
Mothersbaugh and Casale met shortly after May 1970. Casale was a few yards from one of the women who got shot.
Also Hart Crane and Kenneth Patchen,two of the great poets of the 20th Century were from Warren County Ohio. Crane was born in Garrettsville, Patchen was born in Warren.

Actually Jerry is from Kent-went to the University High School. I remember the first time I met Casale; the honors' publication had just rejected his essay: "Johnie's My Man." It was about watching a John Wayne movie on acid...more...
There are many curious stories to tell from those days.

14. So does Hudson, Ohio: |
|
A once had a boss from Hudson...a key member of the American Nazi party. Damn, I even had a Saturday morning poly-sci class taught by some joker who kept wanting us to donate to a Nazi museum on some old U-boat.
