depeche mode cancels sd

depeche mode cancels their san diego appearance (friday, august 14th) at cricket wireless amphitheater. boo.

additionally, a new San Diego date will NOT be rescheduled this year and refunds will be issued at the place of purchase. double boo.

in the wake of DM’s headlining gig at lollapalooza, frontman Dave Gahan has been on complete vocal rest (ordered by physicians.)

the tour of the universe was supposed to resume tonight in san diego, but instead picks up sunday, at the hollywood bowl (of coarse, los angeles.)

gahan released the following statement: “we are incredibly disappointed to not be able to perform for our fans tonight in san diego. We hope to be back soon to play for all our fans in the area.”

thanks dave!

my theory: ticket sales were down = take a loss in san diego, get healthier, and gear up for los angeles.

regardless, i wish dave a speedy recovery.
