From the new @MOJOmagazine Depeche Mode special. Why not buy @HALOBook and see if they’re right? (They are by the way) #DepecheMode

RIP Brian... Sad day.

It's very sad to hear that photographer and Depeche Mode sleeve designer Brian Griffin has passed away. In 2016, I interviewed him as part of a month long Black Celebration special. Here is that interview. RIP Brian.

Today marks 10 years of the Depeche Mode Live Wiki. Thanks to all the contributors and visitors over the years! What's your favorite part of the wiki, and what do you feel be improved upon (other than the obvious couple incomplete tours)?

Get your fix of @DepecheMode's legendary at Crystal Palace in 1993 on the SOFAD... Ten tracks, superbly recorded and available via @BBCSounds for another 24 days (Brit access only, we fear)... bbc.co.uk/sounds/play/m001ry…

Sidenote: in our book, we talked to many people involved in Strange Too, incl one of the dancers from Halo, Martin's "companion" on Clean, the family that owned the drive-thru and, of course, Richard Bell who produced all the videos on Strange Too and its predecessor Strange ;)

Another outstanding album, to this day still one of my top 10. It seems my musical tastes are routed in the early 90’s. On that note, do buy @HALOBook 😀

Had to happen didn’t it. Despite actually writing an article saying I wouldn’t buy this (almostpredictablealmost1.blo…) here it is anyway. I’m a weak man #DepecheMode

Don’t be sad about the end of the tour... why Depeche Mode fans will have an easier time than others with their laundry when they get home. #blackswarm #globalspirittour
