Depeche Mode live in INDIANAPOLIS 1994 (Alans Last Show)
info from dmlive.wiki (best DM page ever :))
https://dmlive.wiki/wiki/1994-07-08_Deer_Creek_Music_Centre,_Indianapolis,_IN,_USA
This was the last show on the 1994 Exotic Tour, and eventually the last concert with Alan Wilder as a member of Depeche Mode. He did, however, return for a one-off performance of Somebody at 2010-02-17 Royal Albert Hall, London, England, UKs special show for charity group Teenage Cancer Trust as a special guest, almost 16 years later.
This concert contains the last performance of Rush to date. It was also the last time I Want You Now was performed (and the last in its trip-hop version), until the acoustic rendition played on the 2017-2018 Global Spirit Tour, 24 years later.
There were a few surprises during this concert, as summarised by BONG Magazine issue #21, published in July 1994:
The final show of the tour turned out to be very unique. Not only did everyone want to say Good bye, which they did, but a series of unexpected events towards the end of the show made it extra special for everyone, starting with a big surprise for the band, especially Alan, when during Somebody, Alans piano opened up, and Jez [Webb], one of the bands backline engineers, appeared from inside the piano, climbed out, and calmly walked off the stage. Then during Personal Jesus, the guitarist of Primal Scream joined Martin in the guitar solo and some of the DM crew sang along with Samantha and Hildia... Reach out and touch faith! By this time the atmosphere was so moving that Dave decided to jump into the audience during the encore, and literally dived into the sea of fans for the last time on this tour. The next day however, Dave experienced severe chest pains and was later found to have a bruised and haemorrhaging fractured rib. The good news is that he is feeling well and is on the mend.
Here is Daryl Bamontes entry for the famous Devotional Tour Diary, published in Bong magazine in 1994:
Well, thats it then. 14 months, or 612,000 minutes, of our lives completely absorbed with a tour and now it’s over. We played a show in Indianapolis tonight which was apparently good fun, but I dont remember a thing. I missed Jez climbing out of the piano, Franksy and Primal Scream doing backing vocals, Dave diving in the audience. I do remember one thing though – it was the last night of a gruelling world tour and some clever bastards from the crew replaced my Personal Jesus samples with the appropriate message You love it and you know it....
Alan Wilder said in his Q&A on Shunt:
Jez Webb - the guitar tech. - emerged, to my surprise, from the shell of the piano during Somebody I think. This is a typical last-date-of-the-tour prank as has become tradition amongst the rock n roll touring fraternity.
Stabbing Westward and Primal Scream were the support acts. In the August 1998 issue of Q magazine, Gahan and Deer Creek Music Centres production manager Marc Elfenbaum recalled:
Marc Elfenbaum: That was quite some night. During Depeches set, the guys from Primal Scream went out in the crowd and started firing off bottle rockets, which was very dangerous and would have got them arrested if our security guys hadnt managed to diffuse the situation. At the end of the show, Dave Gahan decided to take a dive off the stage into the crowd, but it was a twelve-foot jump over the barrier, and he ended up going shoulder first into the seats which were fixed into a concrete floor. The security guys waded in right away to stop him being mobbed, then our first aiders stretchered him off to St Vincent Hospital.
Dave Gahan: I came away from that with two broken ribs, haemorrhaging from the inside. I mean, it was 180 shows. I pushed myself too far. My body was going on nothing. I landed on the crash barriers and cracked two ribs. It took me twenty-four hours to feel anything as I was so drunk. Next day I was in incredible pain. They wanted me to stay in hospital a while. I said, Look, I dont want to go into one of those places, Id rather do this on my own. So I got a little cabin up on Lake Tahoe and just kind of disappeared. I was all strapped up for three weeks.
The show was originally scheduled as 1993-10-21 Market Square Arena, Indianapolis, IN, USA but got postponed for unknown reasons. The show at Deer Creek went on sale on April 16th 1994

![Depeche Mode 》 Was New Life written by Vince Clarke?
Was New Life written by Vince Clarke?
Info from DMlive wiki: https://dmlive.wiki/wiki/New_Life
In May/June 2020, one of Vince Clarkes cousins, named Adam Spector, claimed the following on Facebook:(https://www.facebook.com/groups/depechemodeclassic/permalink/2735480466740590/?comment_id=2735529236735713)
My brother Paul Spector wrote the lyrics to this song. He didnt want any or got any credit for it. I remember quite clearly Vince borrowing them from him. Its about a Chinese Philosopher. I read a whole page about it in a Depeche Mode book and every word about it was true except who wrote it. Vinces highest qualification is in Woodwork and my brother has a Masters Degree in Philosophy from Kings College, London. Vince wouldnt be able to explain what it was about other than what he was told by Paul. I did ask Vince for the original, written lyrics back but he said hed lost them.

In July 2020, Adam Spector uploaded a version of New Life on YouTube (see the original video for the song here: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=2aRmZwViK0Y), claiming in the description that his brother Paul wrote the lyrics, with Vince Clarke having written the music. Adam later clarified to DM Live that he was singing vocals in this clip, with Vince playing keyboards. Susan Ryder Paget, who was in the band No Romance In China along with Vince Clarke, posted a comment on Facebook in which she recognizes Vince speaking at the beginning of the recording (seen in the screenshot to the right), and further feels that the ending of the song is characteristic of Vince Clarkes keyboard playing style of the time.
In the 1982-01-22 issue of Smash Hits:
Andy Fletcher: Words were never Vince [Clarke]s strong point. As a matter of fact, we were sometimes quite embarrassed by his stuff! We didnt understand a lot of his songs. He’d never tell us what they were about!
Dave Gahan: I remember walking through town in Basildon one night and I saw these two girls following along behind me. I knew theyd recognised me. And they start singing, [high-pitched squeak] I stand still stepping on a shady street. And I start walking a bit faster, turns me collar up like this! And then... [wails] And I watch that man to a stranger. And Im thinking: Oh no, this is embarrassing! Do they understand these lyrics?! Perhaps they do and we dont!
