Depeche Mode in the UK!

Does exactly what it says on the tin. Some of the nonsense contained herein may be very loosely related to The Sisters of Mercy, but I wouldn't bet your PayPal account on it. In keeping with the internet's general theme nothing written here should be taken as Gospel: over three quarters of it is utter gibberish, and most of the forum's denizens haven't spoken to another human being face-to-face for decades. Don't worry your pretty little heads about it. Above all else, remember this: You don't have to stay forever. I will understand.

Mate at work just fell off his chair in excitement, then bought 4 standing tickets for Wembley.

He passes on his thanks for the headsup :notworthy:

First reaction - yay :P its my birthday and Pauls in March, so birthday pressy for both of us.

Second reaction - ah, its Pauls 40th birthday (on the 29th) - we will be out of the country. Bad, bad wife for only thinking of this second :urff:

I told you they put puressence in here to fill the place with crowd and gain more tickets than if they played alone ;D

actually i would be worry only for the 30 days after the athenian concert, somehow they manage to blow it up last time, and the next concerts after that if you remember, in a sniff kind of way. result was purresence make a world record as primary band :urff:

Perhaps the band knows about the Liberation Front of Nijmegen that will start war for the independence of the area from Holland this summer ;D

And only one show in Spain (Bilbao) :( Surprised as they've got quite a fanbase here (the DVD of the last tour was shot in Barcelona).

Maybe they'll add more dates?

On a different note, I'm not too keen on that new track but their albums have been hit and miss, to say the least, since Alan Wilder left.
