Episode 257: THE DEV Returns

Florida rockers The DEV are back with us again. The band has been incredibly driven and persistent in 2021, and we talk all about the payoff of that persistence. We talk about their first live shows back following COVID, the entire story of their performance at Welcome To Rockville, and how the possibility of mud wrestling and burlesque dancing during their shows might just become reality.   Follow The DEV Online: Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/thedevmusic Twitter: https://twitter.com/thedevmusic Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/thedevband/ Instagram (Nikollaj): https://www.instagram.com/nikollajlleshi/ Instagram (Ryan): https://www.instagram.com/ryan_thedev/ Instagram (John): https://www.instagram.com/johnpentagon/ Instagram (Barrett): https://www.instagram.com/barrettjones_official/ Instagram (Chris): https://www.instagram.com/perc.c.c.ussionist/ YouTube: https://www.youtube.com/channel/UC3Qys0gHLmrB1LD7VUFYl-w Website: http://www.thedevmusic.com Merch: https://thedev.storenvy.com FANS ONLY: https://linktr.ee/THEDEV Spotify: https://open.spotify.com/artist/5wwviFABtIwG8zE0LRDYDU?si=g5zaQB0JRiigsXlCT_J9cw Apple Music: https://music.apple.com/us/artist/the-dev/1429258129   Thank you to our sponsor Custom Debuts: http://fluroes.myshopify.com/discount/CPP10 Use code CPP10 for 10% off your order.   Thank you to our sponsor FNX Fitness: https://fnx.grsm.io/msotdrocks USE CODE "MSOTD" FOR 15% OFF YOUR ENTIRE ORDER!   Follow us on social media!   Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/msotdrocks   Twitter: https://twitter.com/msotd_rocks   Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/msotd_rocks/   YouTube: https://youtube.com/channel/UCqRKZCDMcFHIYbJaLQMfDbQ   Chord Progression Podcast (Spotify): https://open.spotify.com/show/53XWPGrIUvgavKF5Fm6SLk   Chord Progression Podcast (Apple Podcast): https://podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/chord-progression/id1454876657   Chord Progression Podcast (Amazon): https://music.amazon.com/podcasts/b8dad803-444c-4a73-8aa5-67b4fc43f4ba   Chord Progression Podcast (iHeart Radio): https://www.iheart.com/podcast/269-chord-progression-70632531/   Podcast Webpage: https://mysongoftheday.com/my-song-of-the-day-rock-2000-today/chord-progression-podcast/   Intro: (0:00) The Dev Looks Back at 2021: (3:43) The Dev's Positive Return to Live Shows: (6:20) Why The Dev is Playing the First Mover Game: (21:28) The Dev's entire Welcome To Rockville Story: (34:45) The Band's Persistence is the Key to their Success: (57:36) The Band's confidence live, Mud Wrestling, and Burlesque?
