The mutual love-affair between Los Angeles and England's Depeche Mode is long and storied. Remember when they played the Rose Bowl? This video might refresh your memory. Last seen locally at Coachella and the Staples Center, you'll get to see them under the stars this tour when the lads play two at the Hollywood Bowl on Sunday August 16, and Monday August 17. Tickets are now on sale.

101 is a live album and documentary by Depeche Mode released in 1989 chronicling the band's 1988 Music for the Masses U.S. tour and their final show at the Pasadena Rose Bowl. Group member Alan Wilder is credited with coming up with the name; the performance was the 101st and final performance of the tour (and coincidentally also a famous highway in the area).
The film begins by showing a clip of Depeche Mode entering an empty Rose Bowl stadium in an old American car. This is where they announce their concert at the Rose Bowl during a live press conference there.

The notion of a press-conference by a band seems so quaint now, eh?
Don't forget the new video:
