1984-03-05 Teatro Tenda, Bologna, Italy/Source 1

== Notes ==
An excellent audience recording with some minor distortion throughout; otherwise, this is a very enjoyable recording.
Everything Counts is missing about 25 seconds from the beginning. Photographic misses around 5 seconds from the beginning due to tape flip.
A power failure occurred right at the end of Just Can't Get Enough (which is audible on this recording), and according to fan Stefano Delmonte, the song was played again, followed by the usual final encore of "Boys Say Go!" Neither the second performance of Just Can't Get Enough nor the final song "Boys Say Go!" are present on this recording.
Alan Wilder explained to Comsat Magazine in 1987:Depeche Mode Magazine Comsat Issue #3, 1988 "[T]he power cord ran through the crowd and, just as we started the last song, [a fan] cut through the cable and everything went off!"
Italian press Il Resto Del Carlino] reported in March 1984 (translation by Jalè Mirhadì):Depeche Mode Italia
"Just Can't Get Enough had begun playing and, coup de thèatre, the lights and sound system shut down: later on it will be discovered that a mixer cable has been cut off, perhaps by an overzealous fan wishing to give his personal contribution to the group's performance, or perhaps even by someone who was annoyed by the event's success. The mishap however did not influence the audience's morale, who, cheerful and clumped, patiently waited for the glitch to be fixed just so they could listen to the British band playing for a few minutes more."
During the final leg of the 1983-1984 "Construction Time Again" tour, Big Muff was performed in place of "Pipeline". The band lovingly referred to the song as "Big Cunt" on their set list sheets for the final leg concerts, and they also referred to New Life as "New Crap"; see here for an example: 1984-03-08 Pacha Club, Valencia, Spain
Many thanks to Maurizio for taping this concert, and to Giacomo for the upgrade to this source!
