In 1983, Brian McDonnell went to a Depeche Mode concert and came up with an ingenious idea.
McDonnell got around this by skipping the camera altogether, but he still had hopes for getting some pictures.
Unbelievably, the band did just that.
McDonnell attended the concert in Belfast, Northern Ireland, at the Ulster Hall.
McDonnell’s sister recalls the clever idea.
He never thought he would even get a response.
Now, his memory lives on through the music.
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.
Every time we hear a Depeche Mode song on the radio, we just think of him.
They have sold more than 100 million records across the world.
Here’s one of their most famous singles, Enjoy the Silence.
