    is anyone else a little pissed at the fact that NEW ORDER are the supporting act at the red hot chili peper gig in landsdowne on tuesday?
    the walls and red lemon are also playing and they are good so i guess i can complain that much, but still new orders new stuff sucks as.s!!
    we were going to have incubus as support and its a big let down.

    Incubus were going to be supporting the chilis and then they put New Order on instead?? What is this world coming to?! I'm going to the concert its going to be good fun, havent seen the Red Hot Chilis Peppers preform live before i'm looking forward to it even though the supporting is a let down.

    I heard that they wanted the Foo Fighters to support them which would have been brillant, but the Foos could do it because they are doing gigs elseware at that time. But having Incubus there would have been good aswell as they've never played here before. But the support is aint that good in my opinion


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 927 ✭✭✭Monkey


    Are you all mad? New Order are fantastic. Incubus and the Foofighters aren't fit to scrub New Orders boots.


  • Registered Users Posts: 2,287 ✭✭✭thedrowner


    im with monkey on this one, if i was going i would much prefer to see new order then any of those other bands!


  • Registered Users Posts: 1,343 ✭✭✭polarbelly

    who is red lemon?


  • Site Banned Posts: 334 ✭✭scuzzy


    Man I was so pissed when they announced that. New Order suck Major donkey balls. Why couldn't they get anyone decent to play? Rumour was that Incubus and Crazytown were supporting. And as for the Walls...:rolleyes:


  • Registered Users Posts: 181 ✭✭Lunar Junkie


    There is actually a connection between the two bands, in that the Red Hot Chilli Peppers are (surprisingly, to me anyway) big fans of Joy Division, the band that went on to become New Order. As for people preferring Incubus over New Order- there are hundreds of bands like Incubus about, but New Order are originals. They've a ****load of classic songs at their disposal, give it a chance and you might end up liking them after all.

    well im looking forward to the gig no matter what the support!

    it will be interestin to c New Order even just for that one huge hit they had.

    And why do Incubas just release their slow, not quite heavy tracks? (for singles i mean)

    does anyone know why?:confused::D


  • Registered Users Posts: 4,706 ✭✭✭120_Minutes


    just setting everything straight, cos i HATE seeing bull**** on forums:

    1. red lemon are louis walshs "manufactured" "rock" "band"

    2. incubus and foos were NEVER supporting, that was just idle rumour (in fact i think the incubus one was started by me, just for fun)....muse were also rumoured too......as were garbage i think?

    3. super furrys were added to the bill only to pull out cos their sound man is on holidays , they are being replaced by the walls.

    4. i'm sorry, but legendary and all as new order are, they suck live.

    thank you all

    dear god!

    If you are going to come along and claim you are here to sort everything out then get your facts right.

    Garbage were announced as support ages ago on MCD.ie but they made no mention of it again and announced that New Order would be supporting.

    The Walls did not replace the SFA. Both bands were due to play but SFA pulled out.

    I presume the one massive hit Rapture_queen was refering to was Blue Monday?

    As for New Order being **** live not having seem them I wouldn't know.


  • Registered Users Posts: 4,706 ✭✭✭120_Minutes


    well i'm sorry, just doing my best, more than SOME people I might mention!

  • Registered Users Posts: 1,343 ✭✭✭polarbelly


    i cant wait to see the chilis playing 'rollin' and 'my generation' and the mission impossible theme tune... i hear fred really gets the crowd going too...

    cant wait


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 927 ✭✭✭Monkey


    I guess you don't like the Chilis either then Mick? I sold my copy of Blood Sugar Sex Magic to Freebird the other day. This is probably going to piss loads of people of but i thought most of the songs on it were ****e.


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 357 ✭✭Lolo


    New Order used to be sh ite live (in fact they're the only band in the history of Top of the Pops whose single went down in the charts after they performed it), but I saw them in Finsbury Park 2 weeks ago and they were fantastic.

    They did loads of Joy Division stuff, some of it for the first time in 20 years, and did it really well I might add. Plus they did a mixture of old and new stuff, but not just a greatest hits, some fvery choice album tracks - I can't say what it'd be like seeing them if you're not that familiar with their back catalogue, but as a long-time fan I was blown away.

    another point i'm with monkey on. although they have a few songs that i quite like, i though kalifornication was awful, there was only about 3 or 4 good songs on it, the rest of it i found to be average, and the songs all sounded a bit the same. i do love breakin the girl though, though i havent got that album.

    hmmm i might be blind, but i didnt see ANY SONG TITLE in rapture queens post, so unless i'm the only ****er on this board who's NOT telepathic, how is ANYONE supposed to know what song she meant?


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 622 ✭✭✭darthmise


    Why are peolple pretending to know about New Orders music when they obviously haven't a clue. Just because someone may only know one New Order song that does not mean they had only "one huge hit"

    Quit spoofing.


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 50 ✭✭the snitch


    foo fighters were never gonna support because grohl is off playing with the infinitley superior (to the foos and rhcp) queens of the stoneage, in fact in london this very night y'all. the line up reflects whatever the corporate cowboys feel like pushing on the masses. goll dang y'all, you've been suckered in!

    why are you pretending that you know about what we know about new orders music? If you read her reply you'd know that she said she was not suggesting they only had one hit. You obviously haven't a clue. :)


  • Site Banned Posts: 334 ✭✭scuzzy


    I'd just like to say again that

    New Order suck donkey balls!!!

    What a pack of fukin tossers.:mad:
    Anyone who was at the gig will know what I'm talkin' about...

    blind...i doubt it!

    dumb...quite probable...

    rapture queen didn't give a title...so what??

    you start bitching at RQ for not giving a song title, you presumed wrong, showing your stupidity...there was no reason for you to become a bitch!!!

    also, what has RQ's age got to do with anything?

    tell me everything i don't know about new order...oh please i want your knowledge oh 'wise' one!


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 136 ✭✭rapture_queen


    Its true!

    can ppl not read posts properly?

    I did not suggest they had one hit and after seeing them last nite

    they did not impress me all that much!

    They were ok not totally bad or anything just not great either.

    And if suggesting my age has anything to do with me not knowin any of their stuff-u would be wrong!

    It is due to the fact that i never wanted to know any of their stuff and no i am not a teenage temple barian if thats what u were tryin to suggest!


    Im tryin to make sense of ur senseless reply!

    fair enough RQ, you have my apologies......and as for new order i really dont care anymore, i predicted they'd be **** and i was proven right, i now predict brazil to win the world cup, and i know nothing about football (look kurdt, i'm admitting i dont know everything!!!!)
