After a long string of canceled shows, Britain’s finest electropop act Depeche Mode returned to the spotlights with an amazing show in Leipzig, Germany last night. Thousands of fans had flocked together early that day in the city of Leipzig.  The show itself was a warm welcome for Dave Gahan who received an almost deafening avalanche of cheers from the 50,000 fans that packed the Zentral Stadium.

Pinkpop boss Jan Smeets has been quoted by the Belga press agency saying that Depeche Mode will most probably not be perfoming at this year’s Pinkpop festival in Holland. Smeets says he’s trying to book Oasis or The Prodigy as a replacement act. As if…

In the end Pinkpop asked Krezip, once again, to act as a replacement… crazy.

As www.side-line.com reported, Dave Gahan has been diagnosed having bladder cancer. We wish him all the best whilst recovering!
