What I can't comment on a set list PATHETIC.
if you like the same set Great, but a change would be nice now and then.
because by now, one should expect that New order basically play the same fucking set night after night...
besides...as you are always so fond of saying, the studio albums are all crap, get out on tour...
so now they are touring, and you still find something to complain about...
it get's old and tired...
This night for the first time New Order played Lisbon and what an event, very new ordish.
They must had been sleeping until five minutes before the show, witch had a false start since Bernard missed something when he was talking to the audience and said to wait two minutes as he had going looking after something near the the drums.
Then they start with Love Vigilants, slow motion.... I suppose they were trying to wake up, or not, since Bernard in the middle of the show screamed "Turn off the f***** lights", then it was Crystal, followed by Regret, while Peter was trying that a camera man leave him alone, .... "F**** off", the sound was not that good, and New Order learned that the portuguese audience was not an easy one, during the first part of the show Bernard kept fighting with his monitor phones, witch lead to an argument with Peter several times, so we all witnessed a fight beetween the two of them, and the audience loved it, since Bernard missed the entry of the song Run Wild, forcing the band to stop and start again - "oh, I'm sorry, my fault" said Bernard with a smile - so then Bernard got rid of the phones and regain his good humor, sort of..., Steve and Phil were the "silent" ones, while Peter at one point of the show during Temptation, I don't know if it was because the guy with the camera was annoying him again, jumped off the stage and joined us who stood in the front, still playing his bass.
What a guy!!!
From Joy Division they played Transmition, LWTUA and Atmosphere - with an awful sound - and She's Lost Control.
From WFTSC they played Hey Now What You Doing, Krafty and WFTSC.
Ah, one funny thing. When Bernard introduced Crystal, said "From our last record, Crystal", when intruducing WFTSC " From our next record WFTSC, sorry, our last record", confused....?
And for the encore in the words of Bernard : "F***ing Blue Monday".
So, I loved every second of the show and I love New Order, and the audience sung every song with them witch was a very good sensation...
Actually you are right, I do prefer em live, just don't like the same set.
I was going to Hyde Park, but System 7 are playing Glasto on the same night, know where i will be.
Just wake up now from a fantastic night, that was seen live New Order. From someone that's a fan from almost 20 years, it was a brilliant experience seen them live. To be true, sometimes it looked like they were rehearsing rather tham playing a gig. The main moment was the on stage "verbal argument" between Barnie and Hookie. Later a friend of mine that got free passes to the backstage, find out that the argument was about the inclusion or not of "She's lost control" on the set list. The first part of the concert was more guitar orientated, but from BLT things got more dance orientated, and them really got the audience and made them jump. Funny thing to put Kylie's samples on Blue Monday, that in my opinion wasn't well played. The highlights were "True Faith" (that calmed things between the two) and "Temptation", and the worst probably the keyboards failing during "Atmosphere". My friend had the set list, but said that they changed it, so I think that the songs that Mr Round gave are correct. In the end New Order were in Moby's concert till he played New Dawn Fades, and they they returned to the backstage. Barnie considers Crystal to be the past, present and future of New Order.
PS: I have some photos from the concert but I don't know how to post them. If the Administrator allows and it if is kind enough to tell me how to do it, i'll post them.
Cheers
Totally different gig to Barca this one. Seven of us sloped over including JG and Wolfram from here and found it a lot more relaxed. Crowd were very laidback and the JD stuff seemed to get all the biggest cheers: LWTUA especially.
Worth it for She's Lost Control though: very pleased to here that one pop out again. And WTF was Barney doing with Krafty?! Sounds like he had tourette's and SHOUTED every LINE!
Brilliant festival site though: one of the best I've ever visited. Great facilities and easy to get a beer (and you didn't need tokens like you did for everything in Barca!). Really well organised (and you don't often here people say that about festivals!)
It was great!!!!
But now...i want more....i brought to the gig my SMITHS t-shirt to remember the electronic project and Manchester...
I´ve passed my hands in Hooky hair...He was sweating a lot...me and some friends showed a Joy Divison t-shirt while LOVE WILL TEAR US APART and ATMOSPHERE where played...
Hooky gave me one of his drums from the drumkit he used...
Later one of the security men gave me the set-list on paper...
I´ve waited 18 years to see them live..18 years plus 8 hours in front of the stage that day...i was lucky enough to watch all the new order members almost face to face...the one i could see more and talk was with Peter Hook...i never thought he was such a nice guy...THANKS FOR THE DRUM PETE!!!!

How many times are you seeing them to be so annoyed by the same set?
In fact, they are changing the set at each gig so far.. minor of course, but it's never been the same!

I've got photos and low qulity (very low indeed, gsm ones) video (10 sec. ones) and sounds form New Oorder at Super Bock Super Rock in Lisbon. Do you want it too.
I’ve got also Moby doing New Dawn Fades.
And here is a concert review on a portuguese newspaper with a Barney photo:
Just another portuguese review of the concert...

They all say it was brilliant and that it was the highlight of the festival, along with Iggy Pop.
