Chris WHO is that in your avatar?

Ahhh well .. times change.I still would like to see again a photo of New Order i remember was in an old issue from 1984.Not seen it for years.They are all standing near a lake.Barney has that old greyish leather bomber jacket on and Hooky has a black biker's jacket and boots.Can't recall what Steve and Gilian had on.

Anybody got it that they can scan and post?

No, but I have heard of David and Goliath. Are they related?

Should we have a NOOL Bloopers forum?

they certainly did have a few editions featuring new order,even did one on gillian alone as i remember.

in fact it was in smash hits that a chance remark/picture of 2 girls on barneys hotel balcony swinging his undies around their heads that tipped his exmissus off that he was messing about. barney quiped in a later interview that hed like to get his hands on whoever it was that did the interview and published the pics ect cos of the grief it had caused him. lol

I've got the interview from '84 but can't find the photo.

Got this one from the USA tour in '86. Loved Barney's jacket, remember getting a similar one in Leicester.
