DM Tour of the Universe hits North America

Depeche Mode's Tour of the Universe: Earth - North America starts tonight in Toronto. Good luck to Martin, Dave, Fletch, Peter, and Christian, and here's hoping for no more troubles on this leg of the tour. For those of you heading to the Toronto and Montreal shows, I hope you have safe trips and a fantastic time at the shows!
Update: Looks like a great show and successful kickoff to the NA tour. And they made a change in the setlist. Minor, but for DM, that's huge. : )

    My wife won tickets from the radio station for the Oakland Ca show. Thus continues the long battle in my family...which is better The Cure or Depeche Mode.

    We all know the answer The Cure > Depeche Mode, but for some reason my wife will not concede.

    This doesn't happen very often - a simultaneous Curespotting / DM-Spotting!

    Depeche Mode's Andy Fletcher checks in with the Washington Post and says that:

    "We can't do a Robert Smith and play for three-and-a-half hours. I don't think Dave can run around and dance for that long. The problem with the Cure is they did it a couple of times and then when they went back to a normal set people complained."
