I've already posted about Alan White

 

[Lenny Rider]

Very underrated band in this country received the accolades and rewards in the US.

60 no age, very sad. RIP

 

[Harry Wilson's tackle]

First saw them at The Dome in 82. Gone way too soon.

[Razzoo]

Terribly sad.

I am starting to worry now , so many of my childhood heroes are leaving us

 

[darkwolf666]

Saw them at Jenkinson’s Bar in ‘81 - the gig where their reel to reel tape drum machine broke!

As previously mentioned, rather under rated as a floppy haired synth pop band in the U.K., but found great success elsewhere.

 

[Randy McNob]

when he goes to heaven will he get his own personal Jesus?

 

[Cheeky Monkey]

Wow.

 

[Papak]

The glue that held DM together - sad news.

No Randy, but he might bump into Lady Di wearing a new dress

Of all the band members, he was the most clean living and the one you’d least expect to die at such a relatively young age! RIP Andy.

They’re absolutely huge here. On the last tour they routed through Berlin three separate times: first at the Olympiastadion (70,000), 2 nights at Mercedes Benz Arena (17000 capacity) and then ending the tour with two nights at Waldbühne (27000).

I went to the Olympiastadion and one of the MBA gigs.

 

[Fignon's Ponytail]

Gutted when I saw this last night...Depeche Mode were one of my "go-tos" in my teen years & beyond.
I shall be sticking a few of their albums on today for a trip down memory lane...

 

[Live by the sea]

Very sad , great band . I understand he was quite friendly with Nick Rhodes .
