This had to have been the hottest indoor concert I&rsquo;ve ever been to. I&rsquo;m talking temperature hot and because of that it appeared that the Depeche Mode set was unusually short and I was dying in there so I was completely OK with them cutting it short. Luckily the security detail occasionally handed out small bottles of water to the folks directly against the rail where we were. Folks more than 3 rows deep however didn&rsquo;t get any. Then again, the fans against the rail by the stage were in line for over 5 hours before even getting into the arena. Below is a picture of me at the front of the line.<\/p>\n<p>With that said, <\/span><span style=\"color:#000000;\"><a href=\"http:\/\/www.depechemode.com\/\" rel=\"external\">Depeche Mode<\/a><\/span><span style=\"color:#000000;\"> were great as always. My sister was completely gushing whenever Dave did his sexy gestures and grinds. She got so excited. She&rsquo;ll deny this of course and say he&rsquo;s not her type or something like that. That&rsquo;s a lie though. Martin looks older and older while Dave gets better looking.<\/p>\n<p>The opening act was great. I&rsquo;ve been a fan of <\/span><span style=\"color:#000000;\"><a href=\"http:\/\/www.peterbjornandjohn.com\/\" rel=\"external\">Peter, Bjorn and John<\/a><\/span><span style=\"color:#000000;\">&rsquo;s for a while but this is my first time seeing them live. Peter was so fun up on stage. Even off the stage when he lunged into the crowd directly in front of us while singing &ldquo;Young Folks&rdquo;. Of course he couldn&rsquo;t get back on the stage, it was kinda sad but cute and funny at the same time. We all agreed that Peter would make an excellent play pal for Jen and Chris&rsquo;s 17 month old son Giovanni. I&rsquo;ll have to email him to see if he&rsquo;s free.<\/p>\n<p>It was a great concert, it also helped that before the show started I won $100 on the slots. It was a good night.<\/p>\n<p><\/span><img data-recalc-dims=\"1\" loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"imageStyle\" alt=\"\" src=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/www.beckinabox.com\/files\/line.jpg?resize=434%2C326\" width=\"434\" height=\"326\" \/><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Last night was the Depeche Mode and Peter, Bjorn and John concert at the Borgata in Atlantic City.
