Somehow the other day I was in a mood for Depeche Mode, and stumbled on their live concert in Mexico City in 2025. I’m usually not much for live concert recordings and yet, this is stunning and made me realize/remember what a voice Dave Gahan has!
What pipes! So, a baritone!
This brought to you by my cooking dinner soundtrack in my ear.

@nwreg Speaking of stumbling onto a live Depeche Mode performance…

In the summer of 1988 I was in London studying the history of drama, and one late evening after seeing a play some classmates and I were walking back to Passfield Hall and noticed some video being projected on one of the buildings.

Curious, we paused to check it out, and stumbled onto Depeche Mode setting up for a video. They invited us to hang out, so we watched them live as they recorded some of the Strangelove '88 video.

@kcase What an happenstance! Memorable indeed.
