1984-11-02 Hammersmith Odeon, London, England, UK
Notes
This was the second night of Depeche Mode's four-night stint at the Hammersmith Odeon during their 1984-1985 Some Great Reward Tour.
From this date, a pre-FM recording, a raw soundboard tape, and two FM broadcast master recordings are available below.
All four sources of this audio are confirmed to be from this date and not 1984-11-03, as was commonly thought for a very long time. The BBC Radio International catalog search page confirmed the date of the "In Concert 345" pre-FM vinyl as being from the November 2, 1984 show; see below for a screenshot.
Portion Control was the support act.
