I’m a big Depeche Mode fan,
maybe not so much of their rather simple music they made in the eighties, but with the start of Violator (1990), they’ve continued to impress me with really good electronic music. Depeche Mode, (and Pink Floyd) are probably among those bands who have been influential for most of electronic music we’re listen to nowadays, and in my opinion, very rightfully so.
So Kim and I got ourselves two tickets when DM announced the tour they’re holding right now, but got disappointed when they had to cancel the concert that was supposed to be held week in Düsseldorf, Germany (quite close to Nijmegen actually). Dave Gahan, their charismatic singer had to undergo a cancer surgery to remove a malignant tumor in his bladder. Fortunately, he seems to be getting back to health quickly.
Just read on the website in the news section that they indeed had to cancel some concerts, luckily though the one we got tickets for will be rescheduled, albeit to a yet unknown date. Others have been cancelled altogether, and seeing how much I’m looking forward to that concert, I’m feeling sorry for those who’ll miss out. I guess until the concert is rescheduled, I’ll just enjoy the silence…
