I bought Devotional on LaserDisc before I even had a LaserDisc player.  That concert is still in my Top 10 all-time greatest gigs.

If you weren't getting laid to Depeche Mode in the late 80's/early 90's, you weren't even trying. Crowded House, too.

Also: 30 year anniversary.

I love Depeche Mode! I celebrate their entire catalog. I saw them in The Woodlands last year and when they played their old stuff it was awesome. They need to embrace their nostalgia status. My all time favorite DM song is Dreaming of Me.

I wish they'd take a cue from bands like U2 and play an entire album the whole way through to mark the anniversary of them. For example, March 2020 will be the 30th anniversary of the release of Violator. Do a tour where you play that front to back and then do some other hits/new stuff like U2 did with the Joshua Tree tour. I'd love to hear Clean, Blue Dress, Sweetest Perfection, and Waiting for the Night. Do some B-sides like Dangerous, Happiest Girl, and Sea of Sin. Or do a smaller tour in smaller venues and just play the deep cuts that long time fans would know.

Black Celebration was my favorite DM album.

I may be the only one in that club.

I'm a DM & Flood fan. Anything pre or post, meh.

 

Violator is an all-time great album. I'd put it up there with Master Of Puppets and Girl You Know It's True.
