Depeche Mode & Bat for Lashes played Barclays (pics, setlist)

September 10, 2013

Depeche Mode @ Barclays Center, 9/6/2013

Hearing tracks such as “Policy of Truth,” “Walking In My Shoes,” “Personal Jesus,” and “Enjoy The Silence,” pretty much made the crowd go completely ballistic and even though at times, one would rather hear really obscure songs instead of the obvious hits, being in a stadium full of people reaching out to touch faith still gives me chills every time! Another major highlight was the not very often played “Black Celebration,” which was a stadium sing-a-long and is such a welcomed fuck you to mainstream radio! – [According2G]

As mentioned, Depeche Mode were in the NYC area over the weekend for two shows. We already posted pictures from Sunday’s Jones Beach show, but here’s a set from Friday night at Barclays Center. Comparing the setlists between the two shows, Jones Beach got more “classics,” but Barclays Center was treated to deep cut “Black Celebration,” the title track to their 1985 LP and gloomy lifestyle anthem. Full Barclays setlist is below.

Like at Jones Beach and other dates on this leg of the tour, Bat for Lashes opened at Barclays and we also caught her headlining show at Webster Hall the week before. More pics from Friday’s Barclays Center show below…
