Concerts over the past year (part 1)

In my former post I already announced that I would give an update about the concerts that my wife N. and I went the past year in chronological order with a short review/comment. Of every concert I will embed some video (if available).

On November 30th last year we went to Depeche Mode at Ahoy, Rotterdam. Visiting this concert was a bit of a compensation for their cancellation of their performance at Pinkpop earlier that year due to illness of their lead singer Dave Gahan.

Although I never have been a huge fan of Depeche Mode, I like some of their singles like "Enjoy the silence", "Personal Jesus" (also like the Johnny Cash version) and "I feel You". And they have been unquestionably a major influence in electronic music. Although I didn't had extreme high expectations, the concert was much better than I expected. The sound was good, light show was excellent and their performance was energetic.

One week later we went to Rammstein at the Gelredome, Arnhem.
