Tim Burgess announces Depeche Mode listening party in memory of Andy Fletcher
Tim Burgess has announced that tonight's (2 June) Twitter listening party will be for Depeche Mode's Violator album, and will be a tribute to the band's late keyboardist Andy Fletcher.
A week ago Depeche Mode announced that their keyboardist Andy Fletcher had died, and following a wave of online tributes from Pet Shop Boys, Alison Moyet, The Cure's Lol Tolhurst, Daniel Avery and more, Tim Burgess has announced a Depeche Mode Twitter listening party to honour Fletcher.
Burgess wrote on Twitter earlier today (2 June), "Tonight’s listening party is Violator by Depeche Mode. In memory of Fletch. No guests, no tweets from me but you can share thoughts and memories via #TimsTwitterListeningParty."
