1988-03-01 Le Zenith, Montpellier, France

== Notes ==
Nitzer Ebb was the support act. Douglas McCarthy in 2013: "I think we were down in Marseilles or something, south of France, it was when [Depeche Mode] had the three short ramps—it was when I used to drop to my knees during “Join In The Chant”—and I went belting down the one in the middle, misjudged it, dropped to my knees and went straight off the end! [laughs]" Douglas recounted the same story in the November 2005 issue of Sonic Seducer, where he said that his face was bleeding, and while crawling back of the stage, the fans were having a brawl.

A good audience recording. It sounds a bit distant and muffled, but it is definitely not a bad recording by any means. Pimpf is missing about half the song, and Shake The Disease is missing the very beginning due to tape flip.

Nitzer Ebb was the support act. The day before, Douglas McCarthy had fallen off the stage. He recounted in the November 2005 issue of Sonic Seducer that on this day, fans in the front row were wearing a kamikaze-headband, referring to Douglas' head injury.

1988-03-07 DT64 Jugendradio, East-Berlin, East-Germany

==Notes==
Before their first concert in East Germany, Depeche Mode held a press conference at the Grand Hotel. East-German radio station DT64's Jugendradio ("Youth radio") division aired a some excerpts of the press conference right after the conference. Later that day, they also broadcast a Depeche Mode special in which they incorporated some other bits from the press conference as well as a separate interview with Martin Gore. 23 years later, DT64 uploaded both radio broadcasts on SoundCloud, which is from where these files have been taken. They also created a photo album on their Facebook page in which many press conference photos, concert photos, article pressings and other memorabilia from that day have been uploaded. Their interpreter at that time, Conny Rudat, wrote a nice retrospective about this event in English in 2009.
For the re-upload below, the songs have been omitted from the Depeche Mode special. Here is the tracklist of that special: 
# Question Of Lust (Minimal)
# Strangelove (Maxi Mix)
# Pleasure, Little Treasure (Join Mix)
# People Are People (Live In Basel)
# Get The Balance Right
# Christmas Island (Extended)
# Route 66 (Casualty Mix)
* Duration press conference report: 4:04 minutes
* Duration Depeche Mode special: 14:50 out of 51:19 minutes

1988-03-09 Sportcsarnok, Budapest, Hungary

== Notes ==
Andy Fletcher told Képes 7 magazine the next day (translated from Hungarian):
"Compared to the performances in Western Europe, the construction of the show has to be halved in Eastern Europe, because of the costs. Almost all the lights and sound amps are missing right now. We are using a Hungarian amplifier, which is good enough, but it doesn't have a brilliant sound like ours. The light show here is about one-fifth of the normal show. Our lightshow girl [Jane Spiers] organised it and she did a really good job. But it's actually a big shame, because the audience is also deprived of this. From this point of view, only the organisers are benefiting here. Apparently there were 12 to 13 thousand people [at the 1988-03-09 concert], or rather 25,000 people in two days, who are bringing in the money, and everyone thinks this money is going to flow to us, right? But this money won't be in our pockets. [The audience last night] was pretty good. One of the reasons we came back was not money, because we are not earning anything here. Last time we were here, the reception felt very good. We wanted to go here again, but we are currently imprisoned at the hotel, and that is not a pleasant feeling. Yesterday, for example, we went outside during the daytime to buy some stuff and we almost got mobbed on the street. Crazy fans ran up to us and this is not great, so it's not all fun."
According to fan Szigi, there was no support act for either of the 1988 Budapest concerts "because of economical reasons".

1988-03-11 Sportovni Hala, Prague, Czech Republic

== Notes ==
BONG magazine editor Michaela Olexova recollected in Bong issue 38:
"The Czech Republic was still struggling with the communist regime [in 1988] and Depeche Mode were one of the very first bands from the western part of the World to come and perform in our country. I remember the interest in this concert was overwhelming and there were thousands of people coming from abroad. The capacity of the venue was 16,000 but there were about 90,000 plus requests for the tickets!!! I also recall that the atmosphere on the night was amazing, although there were many state police officers to calm the crowd down, in order to prevent possible riots!?! To remember this special day, the DM fans started to gather on the date of the show in front of the venue for their black celebrations..."
Journalist Roman Čelechovský of Topzine.cz has recounted the events surrounding this concert as follows:
The people from art agency Pragokoncert were afraid that the Sportovni Hala was going to damaged by raging hordes of people, and that the concert would become regrettable. In old newspapers, funny interviews with the organisers can be found, such as with Danou Hálová, the Deputy Director of the Sportovni Hala. She said the security measures at the concert would be extraordinary. When asked just how extraordinary, she said, "Extremely extraordinary." A certain police officer, responsible for conducting the crowd, was predicting catastrophic scenarios, and after saying that "Depeches" were idiots, he elaborated: "Did you see the hairstyles on the heads of those who are standing outside?" Vendors who were sent to the few places where tickets were sold were thoroughly trained in how to deal with drug addicts, alcoholics, punks, demented people and other troubled individuals. To their enormous surprise, however, normal people were interested in the tickets. The buyers slept in the cold weather on the street. Doubt was growing among them, everyone was afraid that the concert was going to be abruptly cancelled. There is a story of a man who sold 10,000 fake concert tickets worth 2,500,000 Czech koruna in total [now worth 7,763,747 Czech koruna or 345,847 US dollars in 2018 - ed] and escaped before the high-ranking officers began their search for him. The ticket sale was enormous. Thousands of thousands were sold, and 90,000 requests were received at the Pragokoncert agency. Overall, more than 250,000 people wanted to go to the concert. Interesting amounts, considering that the Depeche Mode albums were not sold here and the music videos were not broadcast... However, the performance of the concert was absolutely free of trouble in the end, and all the fans were civilised. The measures, which, in addition to the various security guards, also involved the entire "Seven" [the Public Security Corps of municipal district Prague 7], were unnecessary.
