Depeche Mode Forced To Cancel Show In Istanbul

May 14, 2009
Depeche Mode Forced To Cancel Show In IstanbulDepeche Mode have cancelled a second show on their world tour as a result of Dave Gahan's recent illness.

As previously reported, the band were forced to cancel their show in Athens earlier this week just before they were set to go on stage.

Gahan was taken to hospital with gastroenteritis and the illness now means the band will no longer play their show in Istanbul tonight (May 14).

A statement from the band reads: "Dave fell ill with a severe bout of gastroenteritis shortly before he was due onstage in Athens which resulted in his immediate hospitalisation.

“At this stage, Dave's primary concern is to return to full health and resume the tour as soon as possible.

"Fans in Athens and Istanbul have been advised to hold onto their tickets as an announcement will be made shortly with regard to rescheduled dates or cancellation."
