The title is self explanatory...I am a major fan of Depeche Mode, no; I am OBSESSED with Depeche Mode. I buy everything I can find about them or of them. The rarest items I have found are Japanese based, ie

You'll see a hell of a lot of Japanese released Depeche Mode goodies there...So, my question is: are there any Japanese Depeche Mode fans on AO? If so, have you ever seen them live in Japan...(or just a fan in general)

I've searched for a music thread to post this in. Moderators, if this is in the wrong thread I apologize and please do move...

Not japanese, but certainly a DM fan here (and I don't mean death metal in this particular case, haha) :) I'm gonna be very cliché and cite 2 of their most popular songs here, but Strange Love and Enjoy the Silence are timeless and unforgettable 80s classics to me (though the latter was released in 1990, heh).
