New Order

[Cricklewood]

With Stephen Morris and Gillian Gilbert not touring anymore, this now leave fans of New Order a choice between Bernard Sumner's New Order with himself as the only original member or Peter Hook and The Light band. Sound familiar?

I have seen Hooky a few times and really enjoyed that. Have not seen New Order in decades.

Also, Hooky always seemed mostly a good laugh and an all round good egg, whereas Bernard always appears a sulky, grumpy cunt.
Out of the two l'd probly go see Hookys band, no reason to see the other lot without The Other Two.

Seen Hooky live a few times and he's very entertaining. I remember the setlist being very good value for money

Indeed. Last time I went he did about all of JDs songs and about 15 New order ones. Class.

Last time l saw NO, Hooky was in them and they were touring the Low Life album. It was a bit of a legendary gig at the Glasgow Barrowland, February 6, 1985. Tickets cost just £4, and the performance included the live debut of "Elegia," which the band dedicated to the city of Glasgow.

saw them in Oxford 1987 the day i passed my driving test. Great gig.
Last was at the O2 and it was horrible. the venue is terrible.

They havent really been that prolific for a while now. Last album was good but maybe they are done.....?

Great legacy regardless
