  • Worst live gig at a large indoor venue that I've ever seen! O2 venue is badly organised seriously overpriced. And what's with the idea of taking everyones ticket off them and then giving A ticket back after the gig? The whole idea is to keep YOUR ticket as a souvenir, not ANY ticket. Band performance was mostly lackluster and semi-acoustic sets dont work with a band whose songs are so synth-based. 2 hours later, the band trouped off with no encore and the crowd were herded out.

  • The show ended early at the request of the O2 to allow the general public sufficient time to all be able to use what public transport was available. If you dont like the venue dont go back.

  • Not sure you attended the same gig as us John. We attended the O2 in Dec and last night, and had a fantastic time. We never had to give up our ticket and the band did play an encore (ending with Personal Jesus). Depeche Mode were electric and I would maybe suggest that John buys the live dvd and lets the real fans attend the gigs!!!! Good comment Phil

  • Band were awesome as were their support band Nitzer Ebb. Unfortunately I had the 3 most annoying guys in front of me including a 6 footer who swung his body and arms around so much, I couldn't see half the gig - I don't mind people standing but he nearly got my foot in his back! Seats are for sitting (if you so wish) and that's what I wanted to do!
