I went to England to see Depeche Mode at the Crystal Palace Soccer Stadium years ago. I won the tickets from a radio station in Las Vegas. They gave 2 VIP tickets, airfare, hotel, and spending money to whomever would do the craziest thing to win them.

My dad had never been out of the country so I decided to bring him. Also because I didnt have that much spending money. It was a mistake to bring my dad though because he was hardly a D'Mode fan and I couldn't even get him to check out the sites in England. I couldn't get him to leave the pub at the hotel unless it was to go to another Pub. I'll be the first to admit they've got great beer, but we flew for over 10 hours and I think we should have gone to check out Stratford upon Avon, Stonehenge, etc.
