(I have removed the 1983-10-0x setlist from this date, because the "fake" setlist confirmed to be from 1983-10-08 doesn't list Work Hard, so I have to presume that it wasn't played on this date, and the setlist must belong to one of the two previous nights in Hammersmith.) |

Notes
Depeche Mode's final night of their three-night stint at the Hammersmith Odeon during their 1983-1984 Construction Time Again Tour.
According to the November 1983 issue of the Depeche Mode Information Service newsletter, this show was recorded for the British Forces Radio. Most of this concert was broadcast on BBC Radio 1 on 1983-11-26 (see BBC website here and here), and a stellar recording incorporating both a pre-FM BBC CD and FM master tape is available below. Unfortunately, And Then... and Boys Say Go! were never broadcast and do not appear on any promotional release, and as such they are missing from this recording.
According to the setlist sheet below, "Work Hard" was slated to be performed, but there is no confirmation whether it was played during any of the three nights at Hammersmith during this tour.
The available audio recording from this date is confirmed to be from this date and not 1983-10-06 as was commonly thought for a very long time. The BBC Radio International catalog search page confirmed the date of the In Concert 320 pre-FM vinyl as being from October 8, 1983; see below for a screenshot.
Matt Fretton was the support act.
