New article on fan mail
January 15, 2023
This website has received a lot of "fan mail" over the course of the past couple of years, and today, I want to share with you a particularly unique type of message that I have received over and over again during that time period. These are messages that seem to be addressed directly to Dave or Depeche Mode...So, just to clear the air, please remember that this website is not in any way connected with Dave and/or DM, and that I have no way of contacting them! If you are curious to read what I have received, then check out this article. Note that for privacy reasons, certain details like names, dates, and locations have all been redacted.
