We strive to provide as much information as possible about Depeche Mode's extensive live career which spans over three decades and counting. We also offer all circulating recordings from each tour to stream and download free of charge. We would be glad to digitize and share any Depeche Mode (and solo members') recordings you may have of any quality, both here on the wiki and DIME, whether the recording is on audio cassette, DAT, MiniDisc or PAL & NTSC (S)VHS; see Contributing for more information. We invite anybody to help contribute, whether it be with information or recordings! If you are interested in the equipment at our disposal for transferring recordings, please see the Equipment page.

This site was partially inspired by Reflecting In The Chrome, an archival site of live recordings for Nine Inch Nails run by Ryan Jonik. Many thanks to Ryan for his terrific archive, for lending his insight and advice into running an archive, and for his contribution of a Sony MDS-S707 MiniDisc deck.

Thanks to Ronny for helping to initially populate the wiki and for contributing site artwork, ticket scans, and general help with cleaning up images. Also thanks to Angelinda for her massive and continuous contributions to the Interviews section and to her other great work at DM Television Archives.

This project is dedicated to the memory of Ryan Mayer (LilKing22 on DIME), who passed away much too soon on July 9, 2014. I hope he rests in peace, enjoying all of the best Depeche Mode live recordings he could ever want.
