Legendary synth-pop band Depeche Mode and Ticketmaster are offering fans who plan to attend their upcoming concert tour the opportunity to order tickets in conjunction with a special promotion with the iTunes Music Store. The promotion runs through September 26, 2005.
Customers in the U.S. who pre-order the new album, Playing the Angel, through the iTunes Music Store will receive a password they can use to purchase up to four tickets through ticketmaster.com for Depeche Mode’s 2005 North American tour, in support of the new album. The pre-sale offer provides Depeche Mode fans with the chance to access “priority concert seating” prior to ticket sales to the general public on Sept. 24, 2005. Restrictions apply, so visit iTunes for more details.
The album, now available for pre-order, will be released on October 18th. The iTunes Music Store pre-order includes an iTunes exclusive track — Waiting for the Night (Bare Version) and the video for the album’s first single, Precious, which was released on iTunes on August 23, 2005.
