Dave in the hospital

[Trevor Holyoak]

I just got this message on Facebook:

Depeche Mode Dk sent a message to the members of depechemode.dk.

--------------------
Subject: OFFICAL STATMENT REGARDING ATHENS GIG - MAY 13TH

On Tuesday, May 12th, 2009, at 9pm (local time), the sudden feeling of
physical discomfort that hit the singer of Depeche Mode, Dave Gahan,
just a few minutes before going on stage for the band’s performance,
resulted in his immediate transfer to the hospital and the postponement
of the band’s show.

Even though everyone hoped for the singer’s speedy recovery and the
rescheduling of the band’s show for today, May 13th, 2009, according to
the information received by the band’s management and the doctor on
duty, the artist’s health condition does not allow it.

Shortly, a new announcement will follow that will regard either a new
date for the show of Depeche Mode, or its final cancellation.

The show’s organizers kindly request that all you ticket holders keep
your tickets as these will guarantee you your entrance if a new show
date is scheduled or will allow you to get a refund in the event that
the show is cancelled altogether. Thank you all for your understanding.
