I can't say what they're like without Fletcher since this is the first time I've seen them live, but Gahan still displayed his usual rockstar frontmanship. There wasn't much in the way of tribute to Fletcher though, but World In My Eyes was dedicated to him with visuals of him in the background. They played something from just about every era of the band but sadly nothing from the Exciter album (their most overlooked album), I would have loved to hear "I Feel Loved" live, which is an all time favorite DM song of mine.Orbited insanitarium wrote:rodox_head wrote:My ticket to see Depeche Mode in March. I may not have been able to see NIN this year, but at least I got the jump on this one.
Have you seen em yet? Have you any thoughts on how they performed without fletcher?
(I don't know the US tour dates but according to their website it kicked off 23rd so maybe not as yet.)
Considering the theme of "Memento Mori" ("Tu Fui, Ego Eris" for me), there was a strange catharsis to the experience, as I don't really anticipate going to any future concerts. As well as other darker feelings, but I'll leave that for now. Their music has been in the background for some of my lower points, so songs like "Walking in my Shoes", "A Question of Lust", "Wrong", and "Enjoy the Silence" all felt really powerful to hear live in that sense.
