What happened to him, did he bid us all farewell or just vanish?

I think he's still around just doesn't post much these days. I miss his irrational/rational hatred of most things Dave Grohl

Nothing will beat the current New Order situation. 3 of the original members currently touring and releasing music under the New Order moniker. They have to licence the name from the original holding company.

The ex  bass player from New Order is going round touring entire albums of both New Order and their previous incarnation of Joy Division. Best part is he gets someone in Australia to make the synth parts and backing tracks, gets someone else to sing lyrics he did not write and gets someone else to play his bass parts.

So there are 2 bands going about doing the material of two separate bands, each with out the original members.

Could only be the members of New Order.

I’m waiting for Peter Hook to tour the ochestral re-workings of The Other Two’s oeuvre.

But we'll have had twice the length of time since the last festival. The 2015 thread truly was our 'Nam.

Sometimes I have nightmares that the last 3 years of my life were a dream I'm waking up from, it's really still 2015 and we don't know the third headliner.

Everything just fell together to create a perfect storm:

  • Kanye's booking and the subsequent reaction.
  • Sprinty Dave pulling out and the clamour to replace him
  • THE THIRD HEADLINER!!

It was a like we shall never see again... until the 2020 headliner thread when people start banging on about Led Zeppelin reunions.

    • If the rumours coming out of the U2 camp are correct (big stadium world tour) then think they're more likely to do Wembley, Twickenham, etc as they'll be able to bring their own production and typically like to go big.
    • I was thinking big London date and lots of smaller ones.
    • I don't think they are too big for Castlefield these days. They've not had a new album for almost a decade and they like playing smaller venues. Maybe multiple nights is another option as they do like residencies 
    • Second half of next week I would expect for stage times.
    • made a last minute decision to go to Belladrum festival.   it was absolutely wonderful.   never been before, to be honest I think I was expecting a stage in a field and a burger van, but its nothing at all like that.   the site is beautiful, its small enough to get around, but big enough that there are things to discover round each corner, there are a good number of small stages tucked away.   you could quite easily convince yourself you were in Glastonbury in places.   I may have only been one time, but already learned a valuable lesson - the site itself may be Glastonbury like, but the "general camping" campsite is very much Reading like! as the morning mist rises... its a view like the Do Lung Bridge scene in Apocalypse Now...   so if you are not 15 years old, go to family or quiet camping which is fantastic.   its a real family friendly festival to - loads of families and kids of all ages running round and stuff for them to do.   I would 100% recommend it, and I really can't see any reason why I wont be going back next year!   🙂
