1993-05-19 Espace Foire, Lille, France
Notes
This was the first time Higher Love, Walking In My Shoes, Condemnation, Judas, Death's Door, Get Right With Me, I Feel You, Rush and In Your Room were played live.
Anton Corbijn was in attendance and took photos.
Spiritualized was the support act. The audience was really hostile towards them, so they quit supporting DM after only five shows.
Here is Daryl Bamonte's entry for the famous Devotional Tour Diary, published in Bong magazine in 1994:
First gig in Lille tonight. Strange feeling, being on tour again. Funny place to start.
Alan Wilder said in his Q&A on Shunt:
It was a good venue for pre-production rehearsals and wasn't so huge to be considered risky - given that first night performances are bound to be a bit nervous and problematic.
