DM are on the BBC now, live from Glasgow.

A slow one now, but a great gig so far.

I was on Twitter and accidently found out.

It was great, Dave Gahan looked like he was loving it. I can't believe he still wears a leather waistcoat.. biggrin

I'm seeing them in June, can't wait!!

Awesome - I think most people don't have a clue as to the depth of their music output.

I'll be there in June!

Too true.... they're one of those few acts that have really re-invented themselves and thus been relevant at different times to different generations.

I was really into them growing up around the time of Violater/ Songs of Faith and have to confess it's only in recent years I've really listened to their older and newer albums felt like I've spent decades missing out!

So what did we think to Saturday? It's a pity the day ended in such a way.
Appears they have added dates in Manchester, Birmingham and London mid November.
I would love to see them in Germany as I'd imagine the atmosphere would be excellent. I suppose Birmingham will have to do.

I thought it was great! I went with quite a few people, we all managed to find each other inside though there were other people I knew were going that I did not manage to see.

The Horrors were good, I just wish that more people around me knew who they were. Over the last 10 years, I've listened to them more than DM!

Loved the gig, DM played a good mix of songs, though with a back catalogue as big as theirs, they always miss out on so many great songs. I'm tempted to see them again in November..
