That's bonkers. There must be a fair bit of audience overlap.

Well, they've added a new date in Monterrey City (september 29th) so, i'll do my best to go first to Monterrey to see PSB, then trip to Guadalajara to see DM

More dates cancelled

"Due to the logistics of the recently rescheduled European dates, Depeche Mode regret that the shows scheduled for Rio de Janeiro, Brazil and Sao Paulo, Brazil will not be taking place.

Depeche Mode wishes to sincerely apologize to their Brazilian fans for this news."

Oh my what a tour ...


I'll see them in November in Bremen if the show won't be cancelled
for whatever reason.

I'm thinking the same about the gig in Guadalajara, let's hope everything's fine by then...

Today the tour beggins it's North American leg in Toronto, let's see what happens.

Oh wow, more shows cancelled! That is too bad.

Well, tonight the tour starts its 2nd leg, no changes to the setlist except one: one SOTU song has gone (#7) and one SOTO song has been played for the first time (#1*9 + 2 + 29 / 10 )



ohhh, all right, it was "Fragile Tension".

That SUCKS!

Just saw DM last night, they were fantastic. Dave and Martin sounds amazing.

I thought Dave would have been in less than stellar shape following his recent medical mishap.

He sounded amazing. Brilliant performer as always. The crowd was thrilled and so supportive.

Great show.

Nice cover, i've downloaded an mp3 early today and inmidiately had to change my "Depeche Mode Tribute" Folder to have this instead of a Reggae version of a cover by Oliver Cheatam.

i saw the toronto show last week, the gig was fantastic.

still not a huge fan of the new record though.

And in recent news about this "Tour of The Hospital": a new date gets cancelled

from dm.com

"(August 11, 2009) Depeche Mode has been forced to cancel their scheduled appearance on Wednesday, August 12th at the Shoreline Amphitheatre in Mountain View, California due to doctor's orders that lead singer Dave Gahan be on complete vocal rest for 48 hours. Because of their busy schedule, a new Bay Area date will not be rescheduled this year.

"San Francisco is one of the most important cities to the band and we are devastated that we have been forced to cancel this date," said Dave Gahan. "We hope to be back soon to play for all of our fans in the area."

Refunds will be issued at the point of purchase."

Oh my ...
