Notes
The Event Group was the support act for this gig.
Cabaret Futura owner Richard Strange has said:
"I occasionally listen to the 24-track tapes we recorded [at Cabaret Futura]. One of my favourites is of Depeche Mode, all cherubic-faced and full of nervy swagger as they tried out their first songs, wonderful three-minute anthems such as New Life, Factory or Dreaming of Me. The first time I played the tapes back I was puzzled by what seemed to be a splashing sound on one of the tracks. Then I remembered it was the night that The Event Group did something unspeakable with hoses and fake urine on the balcony while the band played underneath."[1]
As Richard Strange wrote down in his bio on Vimeo, he paid the band £15 for a half hour set. He also quotes Depeche Mode as having said, "What's really looking forward is what's happening at Richard Strange's Cabaret Futura, not us."
