There are video games listed in the Filmography. 64.24.147.147 23:35, 5 January 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Boom Blox[edit]

Being an owner of the soundtrack, I know that the music to Boom Blox was composed by Mothersbaugh (http://www.emusic.com/album/EA-Games-Soundtrack-Boom-Blox-MP3-Download/11322841.html). Just think it should be added. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 70.191.178.191 (talk) 03:41, 13 November 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Thank you, I will add this to the list of soundtracks that he has composed Joe Vitale 5 (talk) 19:17, 17 April 2016 (UTC)[reply]

Smart Patrol[edit]

Why isn't the soundtrack for the Adventures of the Smart Patrol video game listed the soundtracks section? They all worked on it. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 99.234.106.114 (talk) 21:43, 6 December 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Pronounciation[edit]

How is "Mothersbaugh" pronounced? Mothersbof? Mothersbaw? --213.208.114.164 (talk) 17:39, 18 June 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Mothersbaw. Call him up and ask him, he's in the phone book in Kent, Ohio. 99.153.25.138 (talk) 01:49, 19 December 2008 (UTC)[reply]

And here's the IPA for it /ˈmʌðərzbɔː/ Joe Vitale 5 (talk) 19:20, 17 April 2016 (UTC)[reply]

Legally Blind[edit]

This refers to visual acuity with correction. He's not legally blind. 74.12.201.147 (talk) 15:43, 9 October 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Having Trouble Sneezing[edit]

Is his song 'Having Trouble Sneezing' a single or is it part of one of his albums/soundtracks? 64.140.181.126 (talk) 17:47, 13 November 2008 (UTC)[reply]

I think that it was just composed as background music for the Get a Mac commercials. Joe Vitale 5 (talk) 19:22, 17 April 2016 (UTC)[reply]

Deleted Repetitive Content[edit]

Greetings fellow Wikipedians! I noticed multiple references to the Rugrats TV show and collaborations with Wes Anderson. There's no need to mention those things in both the Devo section and again in the Other Work section. Besides, the Rugrats and Anderson films were solo work, not Devo material. So I deleted them from the Devo section and left them in the Other Work section and introduction. I was not logged into my account when I made those edits -- an oversight on my part -- so the changes are attributed to an IP address. I am not affiliated with Devo, the Mothersbaughs or any of their side projects. I am, however, a big Devo fan. Cordially, BuzzWeiser196 (talk) 11:59, 12 September 2019 (UTC)[reply]

Is there a wiki page listing creators who are surprisingly accomplished outside of what they're most known for? If not should there be a page/tag for them?[edit]

I always stumble upon articles about people like this guy, and unfortunately haven't ever taken it upon myself to compile a list/collection of supremely talented people thus far.

Does a decent one exist, or could there be a tag of some kind? I know a websearch will just turn up clickbait.

Sincerely think it's worth making note of creators such as Mark, but if wikipedia is the wrong place to do so I apologize for intruding on this page with the query.

I've considered the Fandom wikis, but since those are for specific creative works and characters I'm assuming it wouldn't be welcome.

Again, I'm new to talking & editing here so I'm sorry if this wasn't relevant or productive in this space. Agentgdward (talk) 00:39, 16 September 2021 (UTC)[reply]

What!?! No Wipeouters?[edit]

Oddly missing from Mark’s solo recordings is The Wipeouters and their album “P’twang!”. It featured Mark, Bob1, and Bob2, breaking out the surfboards and presenting 60’s twinged robo-surf-rock. ( Re-released, apparently in an attempted cash in, as “Devo’s The Wipeouters” ) 75.107.41.198 (talk) 18:38, 14 February 2023 (UTC)[reply]
