Playing Depeche Mode 101 Rose Bowl, Pasadena 18-06-1988 (Cover)

Notes Depeche Mode&famous 101st and final concert of the 1987-1988 Music For The Masses Tour at the Rose Bowl in Pasadena. A documentary and double live album, 101, was released of the concert. In the documentary, Jonathan Kessler can be heard saying that with this concert they sold 66,233 tickets and the paid attendance was 60,452 people, and they grossed $1,360,192.50. A first-generation audience recording of the first half of the set (up to and including The Things You Said) recorded by dmlive2k (Emmett C.) is currently circulating, but any FLAC version you currently find is a transcode of a 112kbps MP3 version of the recording. The second tape containing the rest of the recording is unfortunately missing. Any audience recording of Depeche Mode from this date cannot be shared on this wiki or DIME since it is an alternative recording of officially released content. 90 second samples of Emmett&audience recording were once provided here, but have been taken down to help avoid any potential legal issues after recommendation by the band&archivist. The official "101" release had a fair amount of vocals re-recorded, which is somewhat obvious when comparing the official release to the audience recording mentioned previously. Alan Wilder was asked whether vocals were touched up for the release and answered on Shunt Q&A.
