Depeche Mode won't play any UK festivals this year

[kinglewi]

Depeche mode have told channel 4's planet sound that they were looking at the possibility of glasto but chose not too,

"We were looking at Glastonbury," Dave Gahan told PS. "We just couldn't fit it in among the dates we'd already booked - it would have meant moving shows around, and it became impractical."

Knew some people recently have been asking for em but looks like its not happening!

Cant say iam overly bothered about this, think they should have a more upto date band to take there place, especially cos of the headliners (not that iam not impressed with the headliners, cant wait to see the boss & blur) but they need to get the mix right to appeal to everyone.

old news - this was revealed in the other Depeche Mode thread a day or two ago.
