Dave Gahan of Depeche Mode recovering from a tumor

Earlier in the month, Depeche Mode frontman Dave Gahan collapsed in his dressing room after catching what some thought was a really terrible stomach flu. But according to some new information that Pitchfork is reporting, the singer actually had a low-grade malignant tumor. This is sad news for Depeche Mode fans all over the world—and especially right now, as lots of them were buying up concert tickets to see the band in the middle of a global tour. They’re still in Europe right now, and it’s a long, long tour, but the latter half includes many dates in the U.S. You can lay down money on the bet that a lot of fans will be packing stadiums to hear the band’s newest music.
Hopefully, Dave’s okay. There seems to be a good sign in the fact that they’re continuing the tour. It resumes June 8, heading to Leipzig. Other changes in the touring schedule include a rescheduled date in Norway for next year. Check out the new schedule on Pitchfork’s post, and plan to see the band while they’re still in decent health.
