New Order Recall Their Historic Boston Performance From 1980
New Order have reflected on their Boston roots, recalling a September 1980 performance at The Underground — one of their earliest American shows, performed only months after Ian Curtis's death. Playing seven songs including 'Cries and Whispers' with Stephen on vocals, it marked their début as a reformed band in the US. They returned to Boston in 2022 during The Unity Tour, opening with 'Regret'.
