Depeche Mode

There was a thread on here a while ago where several of us expressed our appreciation of Dave Gahan and Depeche Mode in general. Just thought I’d say Sky Arts is showing them playing in Berlin. It’s on now til 7.10

I've watched it also. I feel like I need a cold shower.

No better way to spend a Sunday, lovely Dave, tap aff and birling.

What a man.

ScienceSensibility · 26/09/2021 20:21

Agghhhh

I’ve only just seen this thread, missed the screening and now my life has no meaning...

However.... looks like it might be repeated on Friday at midnight. Was it called ‘Spirits in the Forest’?

What a man.

I do apologise for not knowing, but what does ‘birling’ mean?

‘Tap aff’ I worked out all by myself.
😀

Thank you kindly.

@ScienceSensibility - happy to oblige Grin

The very famous Dave twirl/spin. Preferably taps aff and sweating a bit.

And if he throws in a slow arse shake….

He can’t be beaten. The man is a god.

ScienceSensibility · 26/09/2021 20:44

Aha! Thank you so much.

I would twirl him right off that stage if he was mine. 😉

@ScienceSensibility soz!

And no it was literally a taped live gig in Berlin. Lots of twirling and bum wiggling

Oh yes educated my 3 yr old to the hand waveing of " Never let me down again" did prefer Dave during Music for the masses/Violator era.

PurpleEchoLamp · 26/09/2021 22:31

Missed it but thought I'd join in with the swooning!

ScienceSensibility · 26/09/2021 22:42

I think we may be in danger of starting another Dave Gahan appreciation thread ‘by accident’...

And that’s fine by me. Big love for the posters who add YouTube links of Dave in his gorgeousness.

@ScienceSensibility I don’t think any of us have a problem with that!

I really want a new album and tour now

I watched this yesterday - much to the annoyance of my 22 year old DD. The girl has no taste!

Yeah really made me want to see them live again too.

Joolsin · 27/09/2021 23:07

A live Depeche Mode gig is like a religious experience!

Pericombobulations · 27/09/2021 23:49

I caught the second half of this. Have it on DVD but no DVD player anymore.

Missed the last two tours but am hoping I will get to another gig, Depeche Mode are brilliant live. Need to pimp up my mobility scooter for it!

Absolutely gutted though that my teenager said he hates depeche - he clearly has no taste! Did warn him that he may get to take me to one of their gigs in the future. He wasnt impressed. I hope he will learn!

Reach out and touch Dave!

Reach out and touch Dave!
Oh ok then, if you insist!

TonyThreePies · 28/09/2021 00:06

Dave's been my crush since I was 14 and I'm 50 now. DM are the soundtrack to my life. I've stopped listening to them recently, well, since my divorce I've listened to less old music but seeing Live in Berlin has sent me down a rabbit hole of old tunes. And yes, there is a film Spirits In The Forest on Friday on Sky Arts.
The video for Freelove anyone? Or Stay?

EnjoyingTheSilence · 28/09/2021 23:25

Ooh guess we’ll all be watching on Friday too. Thanks for that 😁
