Bucharest, National Arena, The Delta Machine Tour - I was there!
I felt
happiness. Depeche Mode made me feel truly alive, from the beginning to waaay
after the end. It's quite impossible and frankly, pointless to explain what was
like to have the privilege to have them in front of my eyes for more than
2 hours, but I'm sure that 45.000 people felt as mesmerized as I did.
Someone
said God has black hair. His name is Dave Gahan and he guided the herd up to Heaven.
It's surreal how a 51 years old man can dance like the devil, look so damn hot
and sing every single note to perfection, with a voice that penetrates your
soul. His androgynously moving hands dictated every little hand of a whole
stadium guided by the sound of Never Let Me Down Again - LEGENDARY!
All those bodies with pretty little hypnotized eyes did whatever the
master told them to. There was the place where magic happened. A brilliant show
with thousands of brilliant people made the night unforgettable for eternity.
I could
talk all day about F.O.X. , the opening band which sounded quite nice, but was
too insignificant by comparison to draw the public's attention, about Martin's
amazing voice - It's so unusual, but makes total sense, how the man with the
best voice is not the front man - the piles of trash we all left behind amongst
the screaming voices hoping they would come back and sing one last song.
Depeche
Mode makes the rules. They know how to give a whole lot, but never quite enough
for you to satisfy your hunger - your soul is in their hands.
