Mr. Brian, I find that offensive.

I was surprised 13 years later to find out my wife likes music.
With the Force as his ally he did battle with the Dark Lord. And he showed the measure of a true Jedi at a place called "The Death Star" where hope for the Galaxy was reborn. May all who struggle against tyranny hold his memory in their hearts

I was suprised 13 years later to find my wife was in a coma. I just thought she was quiet.

But not on every tour. They played most of Playing the Angel when they toured it and a lot of SotU now.

Hall. All proceeds of the Band's show will be donated to the Trust,
which is UK charity helping teenagers fight cancer.

This will be a unique event and the first time in their career that
Depeche Mode will perform at the Royal Albert Hall. It's probably a
once in a lifetime opportunity to see Depeche Mode play this historic
venue and it's sure to be a memorable night.

As a member of the Announcement List, you are receiving advance

at 9am (London time), and continuing until December 17th at 5pm
(London time), a special pre-sale link will be on the Tour Dates page
of depechemode.com (link to the Tour page is above).

After the pre-sale, fans will have an additional chance to purchase
general on-sale tickets, starting Friday morning (December 18th) at
9am (London time).

Don't miss your chance to see Depeche Mode at the Royal Albert Hall.




Now that's what I call NEWS!

Scouser, if you deign to to lower yourself down to LondonTown, I'll deign to allow you buy me a pint! I might even buy you one back :wink:


The Albert Hall is tiny in comparison to a football stadium! I'm on line as of now for those tickets!!!
2010 is getting off to a great start already!!!!
