1998-09-03 Jurmala Tennis Hall, Riga, Latvia/Source 2

== Notes ==
An okay audience recording, missing about half of the concert. "Painkiller" is mostly missing as well. Strangely, this seems to be the same recording as Source 1 (an MP3 version), which sounds somewhat better than this source and contains "A Question Of Lust", "Home", and "In Your Room". But this source is lossless and strangely has "I Feel You".

1998-09-05 Olympiski, Moscow, Russia/Source 2

== Notes ==
A good pro-shot video recording of the first three tracks of the concert, which is typical for press footage. It includes snippets from Purity's performance, who was the support act, as well as Tim Simenon's DJ set. The audio from this source is presented in mono and has a strange echo effect, likely caused by a bleed-through from a standard microphone.
The demuxed audio from this source can be found as Source 3.
I acquired this tape from a UK collector on eBay. He mentioned that it's a second-generation VHS copy, originating from a Russian TV station's Betacam master. This TV station often reused the original Betacam tapes after making news reports. However, the collector's contact at the station made a Betacam copy for personal use before reusing the original, and later created this VHS copy. Thus, this is a second-generation tape.

1998-09-07 SKK Indoor Arena, St. Petersburg, Russia

== Notes ==
Here is the diary entry by Jez Webb from Bong magazine issue #40:
The ending of ‘The Cold War’ has resulted in a move closer to world peace in our time, and several Red Army soldiers with nothing better to do than help us load heavy boxes in, ready for tonight’s show. The Russians may have come off second best, in the race to put a man on the moon but tonight a young girl is the first to set foot on the Depeche Mode stage this tour. Congratulations!
Andy Franks manages to buy a Depeche Mode Russian doll set from a St. Petersburg market. Some entrepreneur working through the night... was the paint still wet?
And here is the diary entry by Jody:
There were 19,000 screaming fans in the arena (more than capacity). Also, Flood came to the gig (just as a friend) to check out the boys. He is currently staying in St. Petersburg.
Purity was the support act. Tim Simenon DJed before and after Purity's set.
== Video ==
Complete footage with mediocre quality:
Very good quality footage, though it lacks songs 16-20:
== Sources ==
*Source 1 is a good audience recording. There's a fair amount of hiss and some slight distortion of bass. About half of "A Question Of Lust" is missing due to tape flip.
*Source 2 is a good audience recording, better sounding overall than Source 1 and with fewer loud singers around the taper, plus A Question Of Lust is complete on this source. But it's encoded as MP3 128kbps and compression artifacts are easily audible. Painkiller is incomplete.
*Source 3 is a good, but quite incomplete audience shot video. The first few songs are filmed from the front of stage area, then the remaining ones are filmed from the mixing desk. All songs are incomplete. The video goes through In Your Room.

1998-09-07 SKK Indoor Arena, St. Petersburg, Russia/Source 3

== Notes ==
Great quality video, and despite being recorded using a camera microphone, the audio is quite good. This video is quite unusual, as the footage up until Walking In My Shoes captures the audience from the front of the stage. A Question Of Time predominantly features crowd shots, while World In My Eyes also includes footage of Dave singing, though it still incorporates several crowd shots. Starting with Walking In My Shoes, the video appears to be taken from near the mixing desk area.
Throughout the video, the audio seems to be derived from the camera itself, as even when the camera is positioned near the mixing desk, the enthusiastic screams of the audience remain audible. There are cuts within and between songs, suggesting that no single track is a complete recording. However, it's worth noting that A Question Of Lust, Home, and Condemnation come close to being complete; In Your Room is missing approximately the last minute of the song.
I bought this tape from a UK collector on eBay. He says it's a first-generation VHS copy originating from a Russian TV station's Betacam master.

1998-09-09 Hartwall Arena, Helsinki, Finland

== Notes ==
Here is the diary entry by Jez Webb from Bong magazine issue #40:
The band’s best ever performance in Finland hailed the local press. We had to point out to them it was the lads’ ‘first ever performance’ in Finland...
And here is the diary entry by Jody:
Andy Franks, the tour manager for Depeche Mode, had his computer stolen while the band was in St. Petersburg. He is asking the fans of Depeche Mode to help him find his computer, which has personal info about the band on it. If you are traveling through St. Petersburg, or in Moscow, and are offered a computer directly from Depeche Mode, please make the person a large offer, and immediately contact the webmaster of depechemode.com. You will be rewarded!
 
This morning we flew to Helsinki in our private plane (we now have Swiss chocolate on-board the plane!). Andy Franks was in the cockpit today, driving the plane (not!). He was bossing the pilots around, got on the P.A., and started saying "Good afternoon Ladies and Gentlemen, this is your captain speaking...". :)
 
The band did another "Meet & Greet", as well as a quick interview with Q magazine (a two-page live spread for the October issue). The Q photographer was taking loads of pictures of the concert. The guys from Q thought the concert was brilliant!
 
The fans of Helsinki went crazy tonight, singing along to every word of every song. We will be going to our hotel after the show (haven't even had the time to see it yet).
Purity was the support act. Tim Simenon DJed before and after Purity's set.
== Sources ==
*Source 1 is a good audience recording, but a bit lacking in bass.

1998-09-11 Valby Multi Hall, Copenhagen, Denmark

== Notes ==
Here is the diary entry by Jez Webb from Bong magazine issue #40:
Backstage some of Scandinavia’s finest celebrities can be spotted, also Ace of Base are there. The band are invited to an Aqua after show party (they are playing in town tonight) but are thankfully saved from that ordeal by the fact that Mr. Tim Simenon is doing a guest DJ appearance at a club that evening.
And here is the diary entry by Jody:
Arrived a little late in Copenhagen due to problems getting clearance for the flight path - the skies looked pretty clear to us though. Managed to make it to the venue in time to have a quick sound check and then onto the press conference. The press conference was extremely well received and there were approximately 80 journalists/TV persons there. Most excellent.
 
The venue was a new one and we were the first people to perform there. It was full to capacity, over 12,000 people who all went extremely mad. It was the best concert so far and as usual Depeche were brilliant.
 
Mr. Franks is now up and running with his new computer - special thanks to Apple, however we are still looking for the original and any leads on its whereabouts please pass on.
 
We need to give double special thanks to Apple, who so far with all our inevitable computer problems, have been fantastic - they rock.
 
Lastly after show we went on to catch Tim DJ'ing at the Country Club, very deep, but cool.
 
We are off to Gothenburg today, flying this afternoon.
 
By the way...the crew are feeling much better today [after having had the stomach flu the day before].
Purity was the support act. Tim Simenon DJed before and after Purity's set.
