Still no sign of me ticket. Instead they tried to deliver it to an AMANDA Jarvis I work with, when I was away in Germania (they'd missed the day I actually asked them to deliver!).

All that hassle to buy the fcukers then they can't even deliver 'em properly!

From Warner :

New Order's performance at Glastonbury is being webcast this year by www.playlouder.com. Here's some info that they have sent over that you can put up on the site about it:

Can't go to Glastonbury this year? Fear not, for you can watch New Order's full performance from the festival for free in the comfort of your own computer chair. All you'll need is a broadband connection and a copy of Windows Media Player and it'll be just like you're there, only minus the mud and 100,000 other people. But then again, they'd all make a mess of your living room anyway! Watch at http://glastonbury.playlouder.com where the exact webcast times will announced shortly.

We are taking a midday flight to Bristol, and so I'm not so sure if I'll be along, setup etc on time for the Cider Bus meet.

Anyhow, Im sure I'll spot the vikings at the gig itself.

I'd love to be able to watch NO at Glastonbury this way, but my Windows Media Player simply refuses to play streaming video. I've got 1MB broadband connection, the latest version of WMP (V10), and have no trouble playing streaming video on Real Player or DivX. I know this isn't a tech forum, but any suggestions anyone? Cheers.

I'm getting so excited about this now...it'll be my 1st NO gig, plus it's glastonbury! For anyone who's never been, and is just going because of the Order, the whole festival is amazing, you'll have an awesome time. And yeah the cider there is good stuff....

Anyone taking a 'WHOOOOOOOP!' flag? :thumb:

well, I'm about to make your day.

For the past two years the webcasts have been in WM and I (wrongly) assumed it'd be the same this year. Then late on Friday I was told they'll be in Real this year. So it looks like you'll be able to watch it problem-free this year...

Sorry for the confusion, I was just going on the info I had at the time!

Melissa (PlayLouder tech guru)

PS: if anybody else has tech problems during the broadcast, email help@playlouder.com and I'll try to answer you ASAP. Either myself or someone else will be answering emails on site the whole weekend (though I really hope it's someone else stuck in the portacabin during NO!!).

Oh & you're a babe too, Melissa. I've had real player happening with radio one to catch jules, fergie & the like & it's superb. Visual is good(I've only done it a few times;mines' an audio world)but to have 'NO' on real player live @ Glasto while sitting in me garden with Mount Fuji on me left in full view---this will be awesome. Garbage, Basement Jaxx, too. Switch to radio one for early tent sets there, on around noon here. We'll have a BBQ and'll be raving in the garden. The time difference is a wonderful thing & works in our favour as we've got kids. We have these mid morning starter alcoholic weekends here...I'm going on.Sorry:laugh:

According to this link the webcast starts at 22.20:-

Is this just the start time of the webcast or the start time of the live performance. Anyone know? I am out Saturday and I want to setup my DVD recorder to record New Order off BBC3.

Text from DigiMike suggests Zoider Bus at 7pm on Saturday as a good meeting spot.

Dunno if that's anywhere near the main stage but we won't be able to stop there long if crowds are anything like they used to be (I ain't been since 94) which makes getting around the stages nigh on impossible in the evening!

Well the webcast is in realmedia format, and you can get the raw link by using the "open standalone player" option. So if anyone knows somethign that can rip real vid as well as audio, it should be easy peezy lemon squeezy.

Fresh off the phone to Jarvo :

Crystal, Regret, Love Vigilantes, Krafty, Transmission, True Faith, Run Wild, Jetstream with Ana Mantronic, WFTSC, BLT, LWTUA, Temptation and World In Fucking Motion.

"It's a fucking mud bath mate I'm teeling yer" were his words, he said it was alright, which means not the greatest:lol:

Thankfully most of the songs have been on TV, I missed the first verse of TF :nonono:

But I have Crystal, LV, Krafty, Transmish, Jetstream, LWTUA, Temptation and WIFM.

Hopefully I will get the rest of the stuff, it's turned out a lot better than after the original BBC3 transmission. THANK FUCK!

Think the only ones havent seen on the BBC coverage yet are Run Wild, WFTSC and BLT, so maybe we'll get em before 02:00. :crazy:

My brother is now a No convert, phoned me again and said was better than expected but just disappointed that BM got cut off the end. Of all the places to play BM it would have to be Glasto to the general pubelic.

It's probably just me or did they seem more up for the Glasto gig than last night, body language, the way they played? That autocue is like a security blanket for Mr S.

Just watched the webcast and I have to admit it keep amazing me how such a brilliant band can perform such mediocre live gigs.

A lot of the playing was out of tune, Anna Matronic was dreadful, WIM was a waste of setlist, as are below par tunes like Transmission. And no Blue Monday .... :-(

And what's with all the shouting and whistling by Bernard ? It's freaking annoying.

I'm glad I didn't buy any tickets for Werchter. No, I'm sticking to the studio stuff and remixes instead.

I scheduled my day to watch the webcast from Glastonbury. Dropped my daughter off at the ex's, rushed home, and then chatted with wenorder for a few minutes just before the webcast.

I was almost as wound up over watching the webcast as I would have been to see them live. The show was great! Barney seemed relaxed despite the technical difficulties. It was nice to see Dawn Zee joining the band. I wish she was with them in the U.S.

New Order has been a part of my life since the early 80's. I lived through the technical problems, bad weather, bad beer, and the idiots I ran into while attending their shows, but I have never been dissapointed until today. Where was the "Viking Flag" when the cameras panned into the audience? I was truly dissapointed Mr. Jarvis! :)

I have a few questions about the concert. What was up with the horse on stage? At first I thought it was a bull and had something to do with Keith Allen dressed up as a Toreador? Also, How bad was the rain?

...just got back to London, it didn't rain today but the the whole site was a total quaqmire - everyone anywhere near the stage was up to their ankles in liquid mud - those of us just down for the order came prepared with wellies, which kept your feet dry but just sunk into the mud - so it was impossible to move - think we were all as bemused as the rest of you at home with the panto horse - roll on Werchter!

i's a dodgy feed, probably split off at the monitor console, hence there are no fx and the levels are odd and ever changing. Course Hooky's bass is fooking deafening on it, so that's a bonus.

I thought it was a great performance. Barney didn't look too happy though. Maybe he was missing Hooky who was hiding in the pit.

Fear not noble Berliner, I'm sure we can put the gig together for you. I have errrrr most of it. I'm not gonna start twatting around with this one until I find out what everyone else has up their sleeves ( fixed hyde park up a treat only to find spotnick had beaten me too it....mine does sound s teeny bit better tho :) ). I'd have though there was a way to scrape bbc off the astra sat over there, of corse maybe it requires you to b a 1000yrold gallifreyan TimeLord.

Watched NO live via Broadband last night. I thought they where good. The humour during tuning, was really funny, which showed them as being down to earth. You tend to forget that theyve a sense of humour. Hookey was amazing, the true rocknroller, loved it when he took the bass down to the crowd.

Bobby Gillespie off his face baiting the audience and antogonizing Basememt Jaxx (who i agree, are "cocksuckers").Im surprised some of the crowd didnt attempt to get on stage and kick his head in.

And did i hear a few "NEW - ORDAH!"s from the crowd during the Screams set?

Only got it out for WIM. Seems all the yoof today are copying the Scandinavian lead of having flags at festivals on 20ft high polls (er, why?!) but festival organisers are a bit slow to catch up with the likes of Roskilde so haven't yet banned flags down the front. Caught the first few tracks of Ian Brown last night and couldn't see a damn thing from back towards the mixing desk cos of all the flags spread out at stage height!!

Fcuking mudbath down there and ridiculously jam-packed for the Order (dread to think how big an audience the pyramid stage can hold?) but had an okay weekend otherwise although can't wait for a good kip in a proper bed.

It was a pretty good gig, and the band were in top form – Bernard and Steven seemed happy enough, and Hooky was running all over the place with that Bass.

We arrived last Wednesday, and met up with Colin (Bignoil), (Digital) Mike (Jackson :evil4: ) and (uncle) Liam at the Cider bus. Thursday was a beautiful day, and I wandered about the huge site, sampling all Glasto has to offer.

Then the horror: Woke at 6 on Friday to the sound of thunderclaps. My shit shit leakey tent effectively told me to fuckoff under about 2inches of water. As a result, my cloths were damp, money damper, and phone coverage extremely patchy (apologies to Colin and Liam). Luckily we were a bit up on the hill, and I stopped feeling sorry for myself after seeing the situation some people were left in.

Anyhow, for me the band of the weekend were Doves, who played an outstanding gig on Friday. Brian Wilson and the Peatbog Fairies were fantastic too.

Primal Scream were Shit. Bobbie Gillespie needs to get his act together pretty soon. It seems he is finally running out of talented people to sponge off, and he just looked like a stupid old junkie on stage last night.

On to the most important bit: New Orders gig was fantastic. I really enjoyed it – epically (to my surprise) the Joy Division songs. Transmission sounded great.

On the downside: the crowd were the biggest bunch of witless cunts ever assembled. How many lifeless Chris Martin worshiping pillocks can you fit into one field? I felt totally isolated down there. At one stage, Hooky was doing his Bass walk, so I chanced upon clambering to crowd surf – and never has a crowd been so unreceptive. The people 2 rows in front of me formed a human chain in order to stop anyone coming within 10meters of the stage. I gather they were standing there all day waiting for St Chris and his lifeless, ploddy, boring, shit, samey tunes. I was a bit to the right of the stage – all the action & NewOrder fans seemed to be to the left.

Imagine – a human chain. Shoulder to shoulder they grasped each other – fearful that anyone would attempt moving, dancing, or any attempt to have fun.

Where were the Vikings? I couldn’t find them at all. Apologies to Colin over the (patchy) conversations. I asked about 4 people with skull and crossbones were they the Vikings, only to receive blank expressions and the occasional “no, we’re pirates”.

It was nice to meet Colin, Mike and Liam – who are all thoroughly decent chaps! It was also nice to meet dozen or so people of my own age at the festival into the order too.

Great Festival – Great performance

Pity about the mud and the coldplay contingent.

We pitched up at the Pyramid stage towards the end of Keane's set and it sounded like the whole audience was singing along to every word of every track. Impressive.

We were in front of Hooky, about 10 yards from the rail. There were a few NO fans around but mainly Coldplay. Anyone notice Jayne Houghton wandering around from the stage side, she was almost alongside Hooky at one point. Seemed like the band had their families along, Gillian was clearly visible and a tall teenage lad in a blue T-shirt who looked a tad like the bass player :confused2:

Departed for the nearest bar after WiM, ATR threw a mega-strop after some lad's cig brushed his side-burns and then IDs old flat mate and his gf sat down beside us and recognised us from last years Kraftwerk gig. Small world. Hope you're feeling better Liz :crazy:

I'm sure we'll get a chance to meet on in Belgium this week Conor.

Good to meet Colin briefly and Uncle Liam who was a true Viking the whole weekend - the camera loves you ;)

Thats right - the lad is a huge Coldplay/U2 fan :evil4:

If theres one thing I learnt all week its that whatever disaggreements there are between myself and Liam, we both know a good Yoghurt deal when we see one.

Id bet Mike was pleased with the lack of Blue Monday. I presume it was on the setlist, given the presence of Hookys drumpad.

It was nice to see Alan Wise there too. What did he say? I've totally forgotton it.

He said "Welcome to Hyde Park" then looked at his watch.

Good to see you all and bloody great gig. The sound was perfect - that Pyramid system made everyone sound ace. The sound on the telly broadcast did not do it justice, according to people I know who have watched it.

The most impressive part of the gig for me was the Oldam New Order fan I stood next to who offered the Coldplay fan behind me a smack in the mouth for heckling the LWTUA restart.

Conor - you're a hero for putting a brave face on that discomfort in the field. The carnage on Friday morning was like nothing I have ever seen.

I was a bit poor at seeing other bands, I basically suelched around the site absorbing the goings on and stayed away from the large crowds. We I stood with a Policeman at the top of a hill and watched Brian Wilson, which was a new experience! I got my head sunburnt (those of you that have seen it will know that this is a bad thing to happen to me) and couln't be arsed with the Scream. Reading the reports today I realise that I made a mistake!

The best part of the scream was Bobby repeating over and over "Hippo cunts"

worst part: Butchering every song, and bringing guilt by association on anyone with mildly leftsit leanings (see numerous Bush references). He diddnt look like a rock star when he was being dragged off stage - just a stupid old tosser.

Sounds like a right laugh. I went to see the la's, couldnt be bothered trekking to the pyramid and wanted to get a good spot down the front for the man. Bit gutted now, even though the la's were spot on musically.

And a bitter old twisted tosser who maybe has just realised the Scream don`t cut it anymore.Screamadelica was awesome no argument. But The last album was bollocks.

First of all, I thought New Order were great....does anyone know if EGG was on the setlist for glasto too? That would have made my day. But whatever, the set was pretty good I thought (even though it was the same as most others this year!). My mates and I thought Transmission sounded great, and even though LWTUA was slightly butchered ("Love, Love will tear us apart *come on!* agaaaaaaiiiiIIIINNNNNN!!! *whoop!*), the opening still sent a shiver down the spine. And yes they sounded a bit ropey, but even I thought that was part of the charm, and it was my first live NO experience. I agree with earlier posters about the static coldplay fans. No one was dancing near me at all (I was nearish to the front, on Hooky's side). The lads seemed to be having a great time though - the screen caught Steve grinning like a lunatic. And I have to admit....sorry but World In Motion was ace. I found this on the guardian website - check out R:

I missed the scream, but it sounds pretty mental, the last true rock and rollers...I wonder if they can carry it on though without it becoming a bit sad... I saw LCD soundsystem instead....is anyone familiar with these? They were my undoubted highlight of the weekend. Absolutely awesome, some furious dancing going on in that tent!

I caught the end of them in the PEEL tent, as i worked my way in for RYAN ADAMS ( no show ), it was a good atmosphere.
