A private party was held here for Deb Mann (née Danahay), who was Vince Clarke's girlfriend at the time. "Composition Of Sound", at the time comprised of Vince Clarke, Martin Gore, and Andy Fletcher, supported "French Look", which featured Martin Gore, Robert Marlow, and Paul Redmond.

A couple weeks later, "Composition Of Sound" and "French Look" played together again at 1980-06-14 St. Nicholas School, Basildon, England, UK. Depeche Mode's first concert was thus on this date (May 30th), not May 31st, 1980 at the St. Nicholas School (which actually happened a couple weeks after this concert).

In between these two gigs, "Composition Of Sound" also played at 1980-06-xx Scamps, Southend-On-Sea, Essex, England, UK supporting "The Bullies", featuring Perry Bamonte and Paul Langwith, and at Woodlands Youth Club in Basildon. Exact dates for these concerts are currently unknown.

Immense thanks to Deb Danahay Mann and Depeche Mode Classic Photos and Videos for the below photos and information.
