If Joy Division & New Order had never existed...

By JD & NO not existed, I also, of course, mean any later spin-offs/satellites (Electronic, Revenge etc...). Chances are I haven't mentioned your other favourite band up there in that list, though the Cure are there, which should appease most of you.

I assume that there's even some sort of minority at NOOL who has a band or act they like better than NewOrder anyway, so naturally vote for them COUGHCureCOUGH if you so wish, or give 'em a mention if they're not there, which is a very high probability, as even I'm not expecting there to be a high quota of N*Sync or Bullshit Squad fans at NOOL.

Happy voting, scrotes :p

if they hadnt of existed i'd never have come across you before so there's a silverlining to this train of thought.

can't be arsed to vote though.

But if you do ever come across him, I hope you'll have the decency to offer a tissue & an apology.

I'd probably be a fan of Hayzee Fantayzee, or however it's spelt. Class they were!!!

Hey leave JSB alone,He talks a great fight.

I ALREADY LOVE THE FALL AND THE CURE WOULDNT EXIST BECAUSE THEY WOULD HAVE NO ONE TO RIP OFF

Yeah, you're right...kinda. The Cure did form before Joy Division...of course they were no doubt influenced much by Joy Division.

Depending on the day, it'd either be The Fall, The Mekons, or The Triffids.

REM, Grateful Dead and The Cure.

Probably Smashing Pumpkins and the Cure.

He seems to rely solely on the use of swear words for "shock value". Probably went to a public school.

Yeah, I'm ex-Eton, didn't you know? :dotdotdot:

SP1, my talk may be better than my fight, but I could still take you & Fatcunt on at the same time, with one hand tied behind my back, & the other one fisting your mother...

ah more enlightenment/ attempted humour(?) from jsb, wow, where does he get them from.

you may want to rethink the way you have been posting here of late barnes. there are acceptable levels of abuse - just ask shug, he's had most of it aimed at him - & then there are your ignorant posts which are without any redeeming feature. i hope that whatever school holiday you are on finishes soon.

Come on then, oh great one: what is an acceptable level of abuse in your book? And why has poor old Shug had it aimed at him? He seems like a jolly nice bloke, unless yourself, you big wad of vomit.

presume you mean "unlike" yourself...

well, the kind that people call banter, that doesnt involve bringing peoples' parents into it (they may have died recently for all you know), that doesn't resort to juvenille name calling.

have you actually read the community guideline standards?

besides, I've met shug, he's a cunt.

Yeah, I agree. I think a lot of people reading this argument between us will have died of boredom by now. Any over-75s joining NOOL are just asking for trouble.

And no, I haven't read the community guidelines. Why? Because I cannot be arsed. Simple as that :D

I'm sure your branding of Shug as a cunt is a way of being all matey & what-have-you, but does it not take one to know one? And don't bullshit this message board that your nickname is actually a pun of the term FatCunt. You couldnt dream up a pearler like that if your life depended on it

yes but no one cared before they started to rip them off A Forrest was the first Cure single to hit the top 30

no you're right I didn't think of it, it'll just be a huyooog co-incidence then. where's the "whatever" smiley?

matey? with you? hardly! - as i've said i've met the wee scotch bastard.

as for it being an argument - you're in the wrong room for that.

Dance Hall Days was OK.

20 years ago I saw the Cars in concert. They were superb. Unfortunately, Wang Chung were the openers. Can you say Wang Dung?

What do you expect out of a one-hit wonder band?

I think the name given to them round here is Wank Chunks.

If NO or JD hadn't existed, then I seriously doubt Fat Bob Smith and his Cureheads would have lasted 25 months let alone another 25 years!!!!

According to the Guinness Book of UK hit singles it didn't - it got to number 31. They had to wait until 1983 before YET ANOTHER NEW ORDER RIP OFF could get them into the top 20 for the first time ever........The Walk. Sorry to spoil your day mate.

:D

the Smiths, Gene or the Wedding Present...but something in my heart of herats would have longed for a group...you know..capable of seamlessly mixing alternative rock with disco with pop, with a cracking bass, an excellent drummer, and a great singer.. the kind of group that takes your soul and sends it 15 feet high

No mention of great hairdos, was there? Actually a frind of mine must be the only living fan Sigue Sigue Sputnik still's got

If JD and NO never existed, would this be www.wham!online.com?

Hi Humberto, I sent you a mail, did you get it ?

Boney M.

Sorry couldn't help myself :D

I voted for The Fall, not just because they are from Manchester, but for their incredible output (i think they are up to album No. 26). Anybody heard their new album "The Real New Fall LP (Formerly Country On The Click)"? I can't find it here in Australia.
