They'll either probably cancel (i.e. not turn up for the gig), or twatface will be in jail on drug offences! :p

I'm afraid that may be wishful thinking.

Any Split Enz NOOLers out there?
they came around to my house for my 15th birthday party - which is exactly 27 years ago today. random but true. they were shit at football and chatted up my mates.
I like sia too
At the moment I'll be making 2 Morrissey dates at Dundee Caird Hall then Glasgow Academy at the end of next month. Nothing else planned yet but if New Order do reactivate for summer gigs then I'll make an effort to get to most of them. Might even get booked up for the Greek festival depending on me finances.
I'd love to see Editors too, must investigate their tour dates.
Next week I have Hard-Fi, Art Brut and the Yeah Yeah Yeahs, then Ladytron on the 17th, but in the last few weeks there's been Belle & Sebastian, BRMC, Battle X2, and, not starting with a "B", Elefant and Isobel Campbell.
right now there's:
april 18: the nothings april 28: nothing may 5: nope may 15: nada may 24: yeah, right
find some good gigs for this summer, liam!
nowt planned.most of the gigs i go to come out of the blue.like the last gig i went to ,Delays at Nottingham Rescue Rooms, it's a spur of the moment thing.
Editors are in Florida on 7th and 8th!
Good gigs:
Depeche Mode and Goldfrapp: 25th June The Who and Flaming Lips: 25th June
My list has a load of good gigs on it 
I don't get how some of you people can like Babyshambles?!? 
In my honest opinion, it is the biggest pile of steaming turd out there. And then coupled with the AWFUL music, knob head himself is plastered all over the news every day, probably because he's got it back on with Kate Moss (NOBODY CARES) or because he's found a nice new prison.
I hate the man. And his band. 
not to worry.Doherty will be dead soon.
actually that will only perpetuate the "myth" and we'll never hear the last of him.You just can't win:\ohwell:

i have a previous engagement on the 7th, remember?
and i don't want to drive 4 hours to miami on the 8th to see a band i don't know that much about.
i'm counting on your entertaining skills for this summer, dear mr. core.

I don't hate him, just think the music is crap and hes a bell. Didnt he get 'Sexiest Man In Rock' or summat at the NME awards?

See twats like that justify my ignorance of pop culture in general....I just can't be arsed with it...and it's not an "old bollox" thing either, I have more or less always ignored those who want to be famous....tho I admit, now that I no longer bother my arse with terestrial TV (or fucking MTV) I'm rapidly losing ALl touch with anyone who doesn't end up on Jools Holland.
I'll just got and take me teeth out.

All about Jools Holland, guys mint 
Can see where you're coming from but i dont think wanting to be famous is a bad thing. Its just wanting to be famous with no talent 
Hmmm I dunno, wanting recognition, wanting easy access to groupies,wanting to really piss off cunts who put you down, And wanting to play to BIG crowds...that's fine, but wanting your wedding in "hello" (or your funeral in "goodbye") or some weird stench in a bottle named after you...that's just fucked up.
This thread has made me feel rather ashamed...because for a so called musician, I have rammed my head in the sand for a good 3 or 4 years now and ignored almost everything. I think the last new music I heard was when Hooky was on radio 6 that day...seriously. And I can't even claim that I'm an old bastard and there's nothing I like, cos there's loads of brilliant minter than mint music around. I think my only defence lies with over exposure to chart music at work (shudder), and the fact that the record industry are slicker and slimier than ever and there are almost no REAL bands, no New Orders....FFS even NO aren't QUITE as No as they were...cept Hooky, that old bugger's last words will be "fook the lot of you....Ian I'll be there in a minute mate,mine's a fookin triple" or something...there's no one playing music cos they HAVE to, and who hasn;t been co-opted by "the Biz". Then again, I'm Not in possession of all the facts, it's just an impression I get. Everyone seems to care about the look, the scene and all the other pish that just dilutes the music.
New Order really mess you up man :D
Steve Campbell wrote: wanting your wedding in "hello"...that's just fucked up.
Yeah, but i dont think thats someting most of them want, its something they accept for being famous, like the price they pay. If i was famous, i wouldnt want my wedding to be in any magazine or such. But you're gonna get pestered by the press, you may aswell co-operate then at least they'll leave you alone when they get what they want.

Hmmmmm....you are young padewan, the force of cynicism is not yet at it's full strength in you :D

Ok, well my view may change when im...er...as old as you are now. But hey, i wouldn't mind being famous. My wedding (and definately my funeral) would certainly remain away from the press however.
I blame New Order, seriously...watching them make such beautiful and amazing music for 20 odd years without ever giving any kind of a toss left me this way :D

Aye well, i sadly never really knew New Order till i was 11 (about the year 2000). Despite my parents actually listening to them a bit, dunno how i missed them
