1998-09-27 Forum, Milan, Italy

Notes

Dave had problems with his voice, resulting in a few songs being dropped.

Here is the diary entry by Jez Webb from Bong magazine issue #40:

Our short but sweet visit to Italy ends here in Milan. Martin has his wife and daughters out for the show. His eldest happily tickles the ivories during soundcheck and having heard Fletch’s son sing a rousing version of “Postman Pat” in rehearsals the Depeche Mode legacy seems likely to live on. After the show the band, in true rock fashion, leave to a waiting plane to return to Britain.

Purity was the support act. Tim Simenon DJed before and after Purity's set.
