Depeche Mode Returns to Hollywood: Repeat of 1990?



Depeche Mode, KROQ, a crowd of fans on a Los Angeles street. What could go wrong, right?

In case you don't read Franklin Avenue regularly, I recently reminded you that this could wind up happening.

Of course, it's 2009, not 1990, and DM's fan base is a tad smaller... and a bit older. And this time out, there's quite a bit of organization related to the event.

But in case you hadn't heard, Depeche Mode will perform on Thursday, April 23 at the Hollywood and Vine intersection in a live outdoor performance for ABC's "Jimmy Kimmel Live."

Event is also a promotion tied to the W Hotel's new Hollywood Residences, which will serve as the concert stage backdrop. The "Kimmel" performance reps DM's first late-night talk show performance since announcing their upcoming “Tour of the Universe.” Their new album, "Sounds of the Universe," is out on April 21.

More details at The Scenestar and Losanjealous.
