The grabbing hands grab all they can

Oh, kids.

Kids, kids, kids.

Last night. Depeche Mode. In concert. Need I say more?

I don't know what it is about 80s bands making a comeback, but when they do, they're better than ever. I'll admit that I was hoping for more songs from Speak and Spell and People are People, but Depeche Mode did not disappoint. Even if the rest of the concert sucked, which it didn't, the encore of "Everything Counts" made the entire evening worthwhile.

First of all, Dave Gahan was half naked by the third song. Boyfriend pranced. And strutted. And shook his ass. And there was lots of sweat.

Yay for Dave Gahan not being dead!

...All for themselves, after all it's a competitive world...

Glad to hear you had a good time.

Yay, I'm so glad you enjoyed the show! I thought about going to the show, especially since I like The Bravery, too. (That's who opened for them in Atlanta). Tonight I saw Ray LaMontagne at The Tabernacle (where we saw the Frosty concert). Ray was wonderful.

I LOVE Depeche Mode. LOVE. And New Order, and Echo and the Bunnymen, and The Smiths.

And I'm jealous you got to go to this concert!

Yay for half nekkid :) I'm so glad you went--it sounds like a blast.

You are so lucky to have seen DM. I wish I had seen them. Can you put up some pics, did you take any?

Also -- do me a big favor...can you update my blog 'Words For My Enjoyment' in your sidebar? It's now the above URL instead of the old one.

Thanks!
