Partner just made my day - 2 tickets to see the mighty Depeche Mode at Glasgow in November.
Buzzing like a kid on Christmas day.

Been a fan 32 years and finally get to see them live!!!!

Nice one. Enjoy. Have loved them since the mid eighties. Finally saw them at the o2 a few years ago and well worth the wait

[Gaffer]

Going to see that at the AUH F1 in November, they are the headline closing act.
Should be a good night

[hoegaardenruls]

Took me a while to see them as well, finally went when a mate got me a ticket for the last tour, as he wanted a place to stay in London - awesome show..

Going again this time round.

[Marvindodgers]

Looking forward to seeing them at The O2 in November.

one of my favourite childhood albums was some great reward. I nearly wet myself when they released violator. I did wet myself when songs of faith and devotion happened.ultra is one of the best albums ever written and I saw them in Manchester on the singles tour '98.

great band live and recorded

[dumfriesdave]

Thanks all - def looking forward to it.

Thanks for link Crackie-listened to a little Hurts before. Sure I read a few years ago that Fletch was talking them up as the next big breakthrough.

Personally I also listen to a Bristol band called Mesh-some brilliant stuff in the same vibe of Depeche Mode.
Worth a listen : http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=_uKpqnJXGSs

Just Completed collecting the SACD Special editions. Just waiting for a Good version of "Delta Machine" to appear.

Well what a night that was - exceeded all expectations.

2 hours of brilliant entertainment from Depeche Mode, even the support act (The Jezabels) were pretty good.

Finally got the other half converted too

For me the best album was Black celebration I'm amazed that new dress was never released as a single.

[Morningside]

The Singles 81-85. I used to listen to this non stop in the car when it first came out. The tape snapped in the end

It is awesome! However I think the sentiments on "Black Dress" would not go down with the chattering masses that well especially now!

Bomb blast victim fights for life
Girl Thirteen attacked with knife

Princess Di is wearing a new dress

Jet airliner shot from sky
Famine horror, millions die
Earthquake terror figures rise

I saw them at Wembley on the 'Violator' tour.

It is in my top ten of best gigs I have ever attended (Queen at Wembley Stadium is number 1!)

When they sang "Personal Jesus" it simply raised the roof... and a third encore of "Route 66" was something special.

with this reminiscing, I am quite jealous now!

Saw them last night at the O2. First time I'd seen them; regret not doing it 20yrs ago.
Absolutely amazing!!

Great show last night.It was the first ever gig for our 7yr old, and he loved it.

Still not a big fan of the O2 as a venue. From where we were (Block 402), the viewing angle to the stage was just stupid..

[Andy_mr2sc]

It was the first time I'd been there myself. We were standing near the front and had the obligatory 6'6" bloke in front holding his video camera up most of the night. They pack a lot of people in there don't they? I wouldn't want to be sitting up at the top; I think I'd get dizzy! I bet your kiddy was awe struck by it all.

The Jezabels are an excellent band and I'm eagerly awaiting their new CD.
