Depeche Mode Press Conference On October 23rd In Paris
German fan site depechemode.de reports, that Depeche Mode will hold a press conference on October 23rd in Paris, to officially announce the dates of their 2013 world tour. Tickets to go on sale soon after.
The world tour will last at least until the summer of 2014 as Dave mentioned in an interview with Clash. “It’s a big thing. It’s a plan that you make for the next few years. It’s not going to be over until the summer of 2014. That kind of blows me away a bit when I start to think about that. But going on the road and performing is a fantastic thing. It’s entertainment. That’s what we do, and we try and entertain people with the work that we’ve done, and the music that we’ve made. For me, the one place where I feel like music is still the one thing that ties people together somehow, where people can come together from all different religions, walks of life, colors, creeds and enjoy the same song – that’s still the most incredible thing to me about performing live.”
Great news! I just hope they announce the Dublin date straight away, on the previous two tours they didnt add the Irish date until the last minute and i had already payed for a London ticket!
+1 there, assuming they do play in Dublin (I’m sure they will). Can’t wait!
Ah they will, the 2006 and 2009 shows at The Point/o2 were legendary! Saw them in London in 2001 and the atmosphere was nowhere near as good, they really are unloved in the UK.
Countdown on the official site, check it out.
