Depeche Mode

Depeche Mode’s  European tour got back on track Monday with the band’s performance in Leipzig, Germany, following lead singer Dave Gahan’s surgery last month to remove a malignant tumor from his bladder.

“I’m grateful to the fans for showing their support and thankful to my family, friends and all of the doctors who looked after me so well,” Gahan, 47, said in a statement issued Tuesday.  “Being back onstage is an incredible feeling and I’m looking forward to each and every show.”
