How amazing would Depeche Mode Day be? I hope it happens!

There were numerous complaints about the Depeche Mode concert last week, regarding the traffic diversions and the thousands of people who descended upon Hollywood.

My advice to them...move to the Valley. Hollywood needs these kinds of events. Hollywood businesses welcomed 10,000 people who spent money on everything from donuts and coffee to sushi dinner.

If you can't live in the new Hollywood (and did you really like to old, rundown and scummy Hollywood) then you need to relocate to somewhere else.

Not that I ever liked depeche mode, but wouldn't official government sanctioning of any form of expression make said expression officially uncool?
