General Boy is a character created around 1975 by new wave band Devo. He is usually seen portrayed by the father of both Devo's lead singer Mark Mothersbaugh and lead guitarist Bob Mothersbaugh, Robert Mothersbaugh, Sr. General Boy, along with his son Booji Boy, were first introduced in the 1975 short film ''The Truth About De-Evolution''. Both characters have made numerous appearances in various short films, music videos, written propaganda and even concerts by the band. Both characters were also incorporated into Devo's 1996 PC CD-ROM video game ''Adventures of the Smart Patrol'' (with Booji Boy being re-christened "Boogie Boy"). The booklet of the game claims that the Boys' true last name was Rothwell and that Booji Boy's true name was Craig Allen Rothwell.〔''Devo Presents Adventures of the Smart Patrol: Field Guide'', Inscape, 1996, p. 8〕 The game's booklet also contained more information about General Boy's back story: For reasons unknown, General Boy was portrayed by actor Tom Finnegan in the game. Robert Mothersbaugh, Sr. reprised his role as General Boy at the annual 2002 DEVOtional event held in Cleveland, Ohio.〔(Pictures and information from the 2002 DEVOtional )〕 ==References== 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア(Wikipedia)』 ■ウィキペディアで「General Boy」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
