i'll be going Hyde i booked me ticket on friday..

Can't miss a headlining slot, not like the miniscule set they'll do at Glasto!  Just need to book a hotel now.

How long does everyone think it will take to sell-out?

Yup, I'm going!

Everyone get yer arses down to London the night before - Digital will be playing a special set containing both JD classics and some very new New Order! Thursday 23rd June, venue TBC.

I've got my ticket for this, im looking forward to it all ready I hope New Order won't be on too early though because i'm getting the train down on that Friday and would hate to miss them. I would imagine they wouldn't be on any earlier than they were at Finsbury Park though. Still got to book a hotel too.

i'm going i'm going!!! it's the fourth time i bought their tickets ( but i didn't make them last three times!!!!!!) so i really hope i can make it this time! ( this will be my first time seeing them live and i really am afraid i'll pass out because of excitement... haha)

i think i'm going for both hyde park and glastonbury.  i hope they will tour in uk so i can see at least five concerts... please please do tour!

Best you don't run into any of us then. You might end up having a drink. Or twelve! [+o(]

think you'll be quite safe chant, will be good to say hello. come join us in the pub beforehand & put faces to all the names, tis not a bad bunch!

I'm giving it a miss due to my previously documented dislike of standing in muddy fields straining to see and hear bands while spending most of the day queuing for a beer, a piss and a four quid hamburger. I'm doin Barcelona cos at least it might be sunny and TITP cos I've got freebies and can get to my own scratcher at the end of it. I'm bang up for Turin though if it's indoors. Any news yet?

PS What the feck is goin on with this new forum. It's taken me two days to work out how to post. Any new users will give up long before me.

Unlucky G-man, appears Turin some sorta festival too, though not sure it's particularly big scale.

Any ideas for T in the Park tickets? Just booked my flight to Glasgee but T is tres dear on ebay at the moment - they release more tickets nearer the day, don't they?

Despite havin freebies every year I've never actually made it to T or paid it much attention so I'm not sure if they do or don't release other tix. I must say I doubt it giving how early it's sold out.

My Tennent's rep used to sort me out with upwards of a dozen wristbands every year up until last year where I got two! It's the same again this year I'm afraid. Is it you and JG who will be in attendance? I'll see what else might be blaggable but don't rely on it. You couldn't give them away a few years ago and now they're like gold dust.

Any chance Digital could come and play your bar Grahame? We'd love a Glasvegas gig!

I'm trying to talk the ROCKET into doing both Galsto and Hyde park

Ouch, that's what I did for Orbital last year:

Arrive at Glastonbury on the Wednesday, set up camp.

Depart Glastonbury at around midday on Friday, drive to Brixton, see gig, drive back, arrive back at Glastonbury on Saturday morning around sunrise!

Really knackering, and you also have to deal with security people at the gate searching you on the way back in, because they've got nothing else to do at that time in the morning...

Wish you luck!

Cheers,

Nick [H]

yeah.. thanks but i quit drinking after that "special occasion" in new year's eve!!!!! ha.

i'd always wanted to meet you, hibster, so i can say thank you in person for keeping that 24 hour party people limited edition dvd.. have you got my magzine by the way?

in fact i'm quite a shy person. i can only be active when it comes to new order related issues... :p ( last time when i was watching new order in control in the common room in my court, someone bumped in when stephen was introducing brmc and said "wow, they're brilliant!" i think it was my first time here trying to chat to a stranger and i went "really? you like them too?" but he replied "yeah! their first album brmc is great!" then i was so embarrased! besides i don't even like brmc at all. :p)

anyways.. i'll try my best to meet you guys there before the concert starts, but sorry for my poor english in advance!

lol! classic...

indeed i did - i posted a thread on theold board (r sent an e-mail to you can't remember which) thanking you - your letter was in perfect english & as i said then - probably better than most of the natives would do in terms of grammar etc.

even if you don't drink you should mee tup - some of the stories this lothave baout new order are amazing & they make sure you get to the front for when the band is on too,

so thanks again for that magazine.

Do you mind any Germans showing up there on that occasion?

(where's that beer-drinking-cheering smilie right now when you need it?)

EDIT: when I come over there you people promise me you will talk slowly cause you talk funny and I won't be able to understand what you're saying :D
