Je m ecoutais du depeche mode la, ,et je me disais que sans eux ya des groupes qui seraient pas comme y sont maintenant...je pense a Paradise lost par exemple...
Vous trouvez pas que c est un groupe culte vous?
Orchestral Manoeuvres In The Dark, who also received a lot of airplay on K-ROQ, supported Depeche Mode on the American tour.
This was an experience that OMD's singer Andy McCluskey recalls with mixed feelings:
'At one level it was good to be playing to 15,000 people a night but it was slightly galling as well because Martin Gore told us how much he loved our early single "Electricity" and that it was a big influence on Depeche Mode all those years ago.
We were earning $5,000 a night and losing a fortune because of our overheads - by the end of the tour I think we owed our record company over £1 million in total - and they were earning enough to retire on every single night!' McCluskey affords himself a wry grin, as he recalls, 'We did that tour in order to build up a following and we had some success but before we could really capitalize we split up. Depeche Mode built themselves up with that tour and then delivered their best album Violator, so I have to hand it to them really. Most bands crumble in that situation "
