2001-09-09 Festwiese, Leipzig, Germany
Notes
Due to the rain the show started very late. I Feel Loved, Clean and Black Celebration were not played because of the curfew.
Here is the diary entry from DepecheMode.com:
Leipzig went on the same way with the rain again. Though it was not as bad during the show, people still waited a long time in the rain and seemed to still be excited about the show. This one was even bigger - 70,000 people versus 60,000 the night before.
The guys had to cut a few songs because they were freezing their butts off, but hopefully the audience enjoyed it just the same.
It was awful that our two largest shows EVER had to come with those conditions, but I think that they came off pretty well and the fans would have enjoyed themselves regardless of the weather. As we know, DM fans are so very dedicated - that is why they are great!

Sarah Blackwood from Client (who first called themselves 'Technique' around 2001) stated in 2014:
We supported [DM] in front of 145,000 people in Leipzig, it was one of the first shows with them and I was practically crippled with nerves… and I got out on stage and there was one person at the front with a “Sarah” banner; I was so touched. It’s just moments like that that make being in a band so very special. So thank you…… you were a career highlight!!
