    I am a hardcore Joy Division fan and have been for years. In an extremely cruel twist of events I was not successful in getting Peter Hook tickets.

    As a hardcore Joy Division fan I would have thought the last thing you would want was to hear/see Hooky pissing all over their legacy. The guy is a disgrace.

    Hooky plays JD songs really well. Better than the way New Order played them live.

    It's no different than going to see Paul Mccartney play Beatles songs.

    You dont have to go. You can stay at home with your thumbs in your ears that night.:rolleyes:

    In fairness, it's not as bad as that.

    Meh...went to see New Order recently and they were fine*....missed Hooky on the Bass of course... but then I went to see Hooky just after it and to be honest the only thing Hooky played better was LWTUA



    *Bernard needs to learn not to dance like my Grandad.

    You are so right! Barney killed "love will" at forbidden fruit, hooky's voice is perfect for ian curtis' doleful style


  • Registered Users Posts: 18 clairelooly353


    Pissing over the legacy of joy division, I think not, you utter fool, this is drivel!
    if anyone is pissing over a legacy, whioch is a vulgar statement , it is you
    or new order trying to murder love will and joy div songs, in a poppy re-assemble

    Saw him do Unknown Pleasures last year at LissArd.

    Wasn't expecting much but they were brilliant.

    Pretty faithful to the original and it changed my opinion of him doing this.

    Well

    You get what you expect,
    the energy, the melancholy
    I am a massive JD fan,
    so no bias
