In the 1980s, music fans weren’t allowed to bring cameras to a gig, so when Depeche Mode fan Brian McDonnell attended a concert he threw a roll of film on stage with a note attached asking if they would send photos back to him. They did.
“All I remember is him telling me he was at the concert and he had brought a film for a camera with him – he wrapped his name and address around it and asked them to take photos and send them back to him,” she says.
“He never thought he would even get a response. I don’t know how long after, but he got the film sent back to him.” Depeche Mode was founded in 1980 and was made up of David Gahan, Martin Gore, Andy Fletcher, and Vince Clarke. The band’s most well-known tracks are Enjoy the Silence, Just Can’t Get Enough, and Personal Jesus.
Brian’s widow Anne said that he was “delighted” to receive the photos and proudly showed them off to people. She also said he would love the attention they are getting now.BBC News“It was his anniversary there in August. He was 20 years dead and we were all talking about how 20 years is a long time,” Anne says.
