New magazine articles
September 11, 2022
There are 2 new magazine articles available to read for your pleasure (if you can read Catalan and/or Italian, that is)- one from Quèfem? and another from Rolling Stone (Italy). I have also reorganized the Print Media page to group everything by language. The English section will probably always be the largest since this is a primarily English-speaking website, but as I collect more articles from different countries, those sections will continue to expand, as well!
New Print Article
September 04, 2022
I have posted a new print article called "Dead Man Talking" which comes from the April 1997 issue of Arena magazine. Note that this is not the same as the January 18, 1997 article of the same name from NME, which we also have!
Making of the Dave Gahan Doll
August 27, 2022
The other day, I posted these pictures of a Dave Gahan doll that I had made on social media. The work that went into the doll took many weeks and I was truly happy by the kind words that many of you had to say about it. Many of you also asked me how it was made, and I'm happy to share with you now a brand-new article with photos that details that whole process! Read all about it here.
Hourglass era T-shirt
July 17, 2022
I have posted a new item of memorabilia on this page- an Hourglass era T-shirt. I am not sure if it is official, though!
New minor Dave Gahan tidbit
July 09, 2022
Does anyone remember when Depeche Mode released a Simlish version of the song, "Suffer Well"? Well, they certainly did do such a thing, which you can read a little bit more about on this page.
Andy Fletcher has passed away
May 26, 2022
Andy "Fletch" Fletcher passed away today at the age of 60. He was in Depeche Mode with Dave Gahan and Martin Gore for more than 40 years and played the keyboards and bass. Depeche Mode's Twitter account issued the following statement:
— Depeche Mode (@depechemode) May 26, 2022
Rest in peace, Fletch. Thank you for all of the happiness you have brought to many people all over the world.
Happy Birthday, Dave Gahan!

Today, Dave Gahan celebrates 60 years on this earth! We at DGD wish him a very Happy Birthday!
Paper Monsters era T-shirts
May 02, 2022
There are a couple of new additions to the Memorabilia section! One is a generic T-shirt from the Paper Monsters Tour and the other is a "Girls Gahan Wild" T-shirt that used to be given out by Slickmode (also from the Paper Monsters era).
Back to normal
April 02, 2022
Never fear- the site is now back to normal! While it was fun to celebrate Alan Wilder for a day, this site's main focus is and always shall be Dave Gahan! I hope that was at least entertaining for everyone.
New site focus
April 01, 2022
Things look quite different on this site if you've noticed. So, I am on a trial period where I am going to start shifting the focus of this site to Alan Wilder, former keyboardist for Depeche Mode. Why am I doing this, you ask? Well, here I hope to give you the full story. Anyway, this is something that has been on my mind for a long time, but I haven't really had the time to spend developing it, thus I decided to just start with baby steps. Therefore, I am keeping the same domain name for now until I get a better feel for how this will work out and...who knows? I might like it so much that I may change this website to www.alanwilderdevotion.com! Stay tuned for more in the coming days...
