Well, if you thought you'd seen it all - check out the dubious hat. The band made me wear this :) I've never seen Martin Gore wearing such a thing! That aside, here's a Depeche Mode track from the live set. A favourite of mine.

Almost started tipping down with rain at the beginning of the concert but by the end of Waterfront, the rainfront had disappeared and we were left with a cheery audience ready for more!

Another mobile phone quality experience for you. This time the Simple Minds classic that projected the band to fame on both sides of the Atlantic. But why did it have to be this song? :)

Here's a rough cut of the Simple Minds classic at Fuerth in Germany on 11 July 2009 - one of my favourite tracks from the gig. Playing guitar with Mind2Mode was a great experience [followed by a trip to the German F1 Grand Prix the next day]. Adventures just don't get better than this! Please note that this footage is recorded from my mobile phone and therefore is not a great representation of the sound - but you get the general idea!
