ACR is another option as well.

They might shock us all and have Hooky do a support set of Unknown Pleasures, then get him back on stage for an encore of LWTUA before walking off hand in hand, into the sunset.

In reality we are looking at the likes of Hot Vestry, Factory Floor, Jake Evans or at a push Johnny Marr. 

Do you think Hot Vestry and Jake Evans have incriminating photographs of the band? They must have something on the band to keep getting support slots. Maybe they are just dirt cheap!

Steven and Gillians daughter is in Hot Vestry mate. Jake Evans was in Bad Lieutenant with most of them as well.

New Order have generally always kept things 'in house' hency why A Certain Ratio have been popping up in support with them.

Did not know know that first but of info,interesting. I saw Hot Vestry at the Night & Day years ago, one of their first gigs, they all looked about 12!

There is an ACR soundsystem on at the after party, which is at the old Grananda studios. No idea what an ACR soundsystem actually includes them playing live though.

Should have just had them and Happy Mondays as support at G - Mex and it'd be 1988 all over again!  Not too sure about the afters, what time do you reckon the gig will finish ?

Night & Day

I'm probably well late on this, but as I sit here now re-watching their set, I have to say they weren't very good at all! At the time, I was spangled, and it sounded great! But it looks terrible on reflection!

The moral of the story: never re-watch on telly what you saw live! It's never really as good (plus the BBC always do shit sound mixes). I saw them on the pyramid in 2005, so was not expecting much this year, but I thought they were much better this year and enjoyed their set (I was in a nice crowd, the atmosphere was good)- I suspect if I watched it on Iplayer it would come across as worse than I remembered though!

New Order posting about Hooky's tour on their official facebook? Eh?

Think it is run by their old label (maybe wrong on that though)

They have always promoted Hooky's stuff on that page.

I watched back the two tracks that went out on the BBC coverage last night - Bizarre Love Triangle and Love Will Tear Us Apart - and I have today, Barney fumbling the second line of LWTAU aside, it all looked and sounded pretty good!

 

Probably helped that he saved all of his whooping for the former and not the latter song.

I am going to watch Hooky next month and then put the New Order tunes away for a while. Its been none stop New Order tunes and gigs for nearly a year now so need to give them a rest.

Been a mad year to be honest. The Berlin gig last year though was one of my absolute faves though.

Saw Peter Hook at ynot on Saturday, was really good I thought. For some reason I was expecting a gloomy set of obscure Joy Division stuff that most the crowd didn't know, but the likes of Blue Monday made for a really good atmosphere.

New Order appear to be doing five shows over a couple of weeks residency at the Granada Studios with some orchestral backing from Joe Duddell  and the Royal Northern College of Music, and visual doodahs from Liam Gillick. Sounds kinda cool. Amongst all the other stuff announced there's also a special evening to do with Tony Wilson too for the pwoper fanatics.

£12 for manchester residents on a low wage. £45 otherwise

I guess that's one good thing to come out of my redundancy the other week
