101 is a live album and documentary film by the English electronic music band Depeche Mode, released on 13 March 1989 by Mute Records. It chronicles the final leg of the band's tour in support of their album Music for the Masses (1987) and the final show on 18 June 1988 at the Rose Bowl in Pasadena, California.http://www.depechemode.com/discography/home_video/04_101.html Discography > Home video > 101 DepecheMode.com 3 August 2011 https://web.archive.org/web/20110927154028/http://www.depechemode.com/discography/home_video/04_101.html 27 September 2011http://www.depechemode.com/discography/albums/10_101.html Discography > Albums > 101 DepecheMode.com 3 August 2011 https://web.archive.org/web/20110812002938/http://www.depechemode.com/discography/albums/10_101.html 12 August 2011
The show was the 101st and final performance of the tour and coincidentally also the number of a famous highway in the area. The film was directed and produced by D. A. Pennebaker.
Background
Music for the Masses#Tour
Depeche Mode had released their previous album, Music for the Masses in September 1987Burmeister Lange 2017 165 and had followed up with the successful Music for the Masses Tour, which ran through June 1988.Burmeister Lange 2017 423-424 The tour had a US leg in December 1987, and when a second US leg was scheduled between April and June 1988, the band decided to document the legBurmeister Lange 2017 176 and cap off the tour with a special show. Singer Dave Gahan told press in interviews that the band wanted a video that reflected the highs and lows of spending 10 months on the road for a tour.U4CCYMYb2ZQ Depeche Mode / Good Morning Britain / Dave Gahan interview / 1989 Said Gahan, "We didn't want to make a run-of-the-mill 'band on stage' type of film that's been done [by others] so many times. ... We wanted to make an honest film about what it's really like," and show the backstage disagreements, discussions, and the fans.U4CCYMYb2ZQ Depeche Mode / Good Morning Britain / Dave Gahan interview / 1989
Venue
The band wanted to finish their successful tour with a large, final show. Their initial idea was to do a free concert somewhere, but that idea was quickly abandoned. When the Rose Bowl was suggested, it was met with scepticism by the band's US label Sire Records, who were concerned that, because the venue was so large, it wouldn't sell out, and if it didn't sell out, it would suggest that the band's growing success was fraudulent. In addition, the label was concerned because they thought that the venue hadn't been used to host a concert since the 1970's, although it had in fact been host to a musical event just six years earlier, when a concert was held there with performers including Stevie Wonder, Aretha Franklin, Quincy Jones and Luther Vandross.https://books.google.com/books?id=eiQEAAAAMBAJ&q=billboard+boxscore+rose+bowl&pg=PT55 Billboard google.pl August 14, 1982 July 29, 2015
Documentary
The band's original concept for the film was going to be about how Depeche Mode fit into the 1980s.Doole Kerry The Class of 101 Music Express 13 138 July 1989 40–44 0848-9645 They began discussions amongst themselves about the film in March 1988, before the second leg of the US tour began.Melody Maker Boys on Film Francesco Adinolfi 15 April 1989 After discussions with an experienced but unnamed director, they came to the conclusion that their original choice was going to do something "too glossy" for their tastes, as they were not looking for a "slick commercial" for the band. At this point, Virgin Records, who were handling video releases for Mute Records, suggested that they reach out to renowned documentary filmmaker D. A. Pennebaker to see if he would be interested in the project. He accepted, but discarded their initial concept, feeling that it was "impossible to examine in an entertainingly cinematic fashion".
Ultimately, the film focused on what Depeche Mode considered to be their strongest selling point, their live performance, as well as capturing the spirit of their fan base.Giles Jeff Depeche Mode Interview (Sidebar) Rolling Stone 582/583 12–26 July 1990 60–65 0035-791X Notably, the film prominently features a group of young fans travelling across America as winners of a "be-in-a-Depeche Mode-movie-contest". Their bus visited New York, Pittsburgh, Nashville, Memphis, New Mexico and Arizona on its way to LA,BONG magazine February 1989 12 101 – The Movie 4 where the movie culminates at the band's landmark concert at the Rose Bowl stadium in Pasadena. Depeche Mode had noticed that in America, they often sold more concert tickets than albums.Depeche Mode: 1987–88 (Sometimes You Do Need Some New Jokes) Hallard, Ross (director); Lane, Phil Michael (director) Mute Records 2006 DVD
The film features performances at the Rose Bowl concert, interspersed with snippets of the band, the "bus kids" and live performances recorded throughout the tour.Burmeister Lange 2017 176 The 2003 DVD reissue included more concert footage, but as Pennebaker was "shooting a documentary, not a concert film", a complete video record of the Rose Bowl concert does not exist.http://101dvd.depechemode.com/pressrelease.html Depeche Mode Release Classic 2 Disc DVD Set: '101' + Live 1988 Rose Bowl Show Released October 13th DepecheMode.com 2 April 2017 Pennebaker noted there was a similarity between Depeche Mode and some of the other artists he'd filmed before, including Bob Dylan and David Bowie, saying "I found the audience very rapt; they were there for that band. Not any band would do. I got the feeling that maybe there was no other band they'd ever go out for again in that assemblage, and it made me take that audience fairly seriously."
During the tour, Gahan was not faithful to his wife, later saying, "I felt like shit because I constantly cheated on my wife. I went home and lied, my soul needed cleansing badly."Ultimate Music Guide 109 I definitely could have been a vampire Stephen Dalton On the tour, Gahan started a relationship with Teresa Conroy, the US Press Liaison Officer for the band, whom he would later marry in 1992.Miller 2004 453Gittins 2018 158 However, none of this was captured on film, according to band member Alan Wilder, "we never really allowed Don Pennebaker to see the darker side of being on the road."
Style
Pennebaker used his direct cinema approach, which he described as "letting the camera run as unobtrusively as possible, thereby encouraging events to unfold on their own. [...] You edit more and the film changes every three days, but [the band] were very nice and patient about it."
Live album
Although the entire Rose Bowl concert was not recorded on video, the complete concert was recorded for an audio release.Burmeister Lange 2017 176-179 Mixed at Swanyard Studios in London by then-unknown producer Alan Moulder, 101 was Depeche Mode's first full live album.Burmeister Lange 2017 179Their first concert video was The World We Live In and Live in Hamburg (1985), although no corresponding live album was ever released,Burmeister Lange 2017 104 and fragments of their 1982 tour were released as B-sides to several of their 1983 singles.Burmeister Lange 2017 49-66 Wilder said that the album had a few overdubs, saying "I doubt there's ever been a live album in the history of pop music that hasn't been touched up here and there."Miller 2004 402
Name
The original name for the live album/documentary was going to be Mass, inspired by both the name of album it supported and the large crowds who were coming to the concerts.Gittins 2018 133 Said Gahan, the name 'Mass' felt appropriate because "there's something that is very religious about the whole thing [performing live to a large crowd], and it's not just from the fans to the band, it's the other way as well. You definitely feel a massive energy from all the people who are out there. ... There's an incredible energy that none of us understand."x2Hlg1C-0kA Depeche Mode – 1998-xx-xx – Arte, Strasbourg, France – (Part 2)
Another name they considered was A Brief Period of Rejoicing, named after the Winston Churchill quote that opened their album Black Celebration (1986).Burmeister Lange 2017 177 However, they ultimately chose the name that Wilder proposed, 101, named after both the fact that the final show was the 101st of the tour, and the nearby 101 highway.Gittins 2018 133
The final show
We'd like to announce that as a special final concert for our world tour, on Saturday June the 18th, we'll be playing a Concert for the Masses here at the Rose Bowl Pasadena. —Alan Wilder on behalf of Depeche Mode, announcing the show to the press and fans in June 1988. 25em left padding:8px;
For the final show, the band had to use a completely different sound system and stage setup than had been used on the rest of the tour. The roof of the stage was too heavy for the existing rigging system, a fact that was not discovered until they tried to raise the roof after attaching all of the lights and speakers. This resulted in the band and management racing to rent a crane on the day of the show, to help lift and hold the roof in place. The band remembered that everything about the soundcheck for the show "felt disjointed and weird", everyone was nervous, and Gahan started to lose his voice at the soundcheck, but fortunately was able to perform that night.
Fellow synth-pop bands Pet Shop Boys, Orchestral Manoeuvres in the Dark, Thomas Dolby and WireMiller 2004 388 were opening guests for the show.
Depeche Mode's set went on without any major issues, other than the weather. Said songwriter Martin Gore, "we've joked about the cloud of doom that followed us around ... Every time we played anywhere, it rained" and this was no exception, with a rainstorm starting coincidentally during the religiously-themed "Blasphemous Rumours".
One of the highlights of the show was the crowd waving in unison with Gahan during their performance of "Never Let Me Down Again", which the band thought looked like a field of wheat waving in the wind. This final show of the tour was the last time the band played their 1984 hit "People Are People" live. People Are People by Depeche Mode Setlist.fm 5 June 2014 https://www.setlist.fm/stats/songs/depeche-mode-73d6b235.html?songid=4bd66782 Although the song was popular and a catalyst for the band's success in the years leading up to the show, the band felt that the song was too commercial and their dislike for the song had grown to the point where they didn't want to perform it in concert anymore.Depeche Mode: 1984 (You Can Get Away With Anything If You Give It a Good Tune) Hallard Ross (director) Lane Phil Michael (director) Mute Records 2006 DVD
Gahan said that near the end of the show, he started getting so emotional that he had trouble singing. After the show, Gahan visibly broke down backstage. He later said "I had a strange feeling at that concert, I remember at the end of it, I felt like it was all over. There was nowhere to go now. ... What were we going to do now? It was almost like we had reached our destination." In 2006, nearly 20 years after the concert, Gahan said that, despite all the band's success in the years since, "There hasn't really been another concert like it, for us."
A review in the Los Angeles Daily News was mostly positive, saying "it was the music that was most enticing. Though the band's somber disco at times seemed downright narcotic, their elegant Germanic-Mediterranean melodies were more often seductive."Los Angeles Daily News Bruce Britt 20 June 1988 L18 Concert gratifies the masses https://infoweb.newsbank.com/apps/news/document-view?p=AWNB&docref=news/0EF519226B2B13BE&f=basic 12 February 2026
Attendance and ticket and merchandise sales
Reports of the total attendance at the show vary, but all agree it was at least 60,000: In the 101 video itself, paid attendance was listed as 60,453,qtoHFIF23NU Depeche Mode – 101 – A Concert for The Masses – USA 88 – live Rose Bowl, Pasadena – 18/06/1988 Gahan and label manager Daniel Miller quoted 70,000 or 80,000 in interviews in later years,Gittins 2018 135 contemporary reviews in Q and Rolling Stone magazines cite figures of 72,000Q (magazine) Mat Snow The Unlikely Lads April 1989 and 75,000,Giles Jeff This Band Wants Your Respect Rolling Stone (magazine) 582/583 12–26 July 1990 60–65 respectively, and the liner notes for the 2006 special edition re-release of Music for the Masses cites the attendance as "almost 80,000".Music for the Masses remastered Depeche Mode Sire Records 2006 R2 77591 CD booklet The paid attendance gross for the show, as reported in the 101 video, was about USD $1,360,000, or roughly $US 1360000 1988 in today's dollars.US The Q review also notes the band sold at least $1,000,000 in t-shirt sales alone at the show. Said Gahan, "things like merchandising are far more important than ticket sales. Merchandise finances tours. ... To tour in America you need to sell T-shirts."

Reviews
A review in The Seattle Times said "Sometimes the film feels like satiric expose, a la Decline of Western Civilization Part II: The Metal Years. Sometimes it feels like honest homage to a band that sells 60,000 seats and earns a cool million in a single night on the basis of a cache of catchy, sometimes sumptuous, minor-key ditties", adding that "fans may want more music".
Legacy
Due to the prominence of the "bus kids" in the film, it is widely considered to be the impetus for the "reality" craze that swept MTV in the following years, including The Real World and Road Rules.https://www.independent.co.uk/arts-entertainment/films/features/da-pennebaker-no-spinal-tap-jokes-please-77717.html https://ghostarchive.org/archive/20220501/https://www.independent.co.uk/arts-entertainment/films/features/da-pennebaker-no-spinal-tap-jokes-please-77717.html 1 May 2022 subscription live DA Pennebaker: No Spinal Tap jokes, please...
