What were you all into when Low Life came out?.Dire fuckin Straits?
Down the front you c***, that's where! 
Well actually no, I was swinging from the plastic palm trees, as I had done in 1983 and 1985 as well. Didn't see you there......

(a Viking hits back with "don`t recall you getting the setlist and backstage access at the gig on Pluto that took 3 weeks to get to via the Fuji festival")
Anyways, i`m off on me annual holiday to Brazil with the firm to meet some of them Rio girls again (no, NOT the ladyboys before you say it).See ya!.
In 1985 I was 10, so Rod Stewart & Bob Dylan were my favourites thanks to my ma and pa. It would be another couple of years before my Uncle John finally knocked some proper sense into me, mainly thanks to Temptation on Substance. If I was as old as some of you cunts on here I'd have a lot more than 13 gigs to ma name......and probably liver failure 
Enjoy Brasil me ole fruitcake - and I will make no cheap jokes about the LB's - you've probably learned yer lesson after the last trip ;)

Oh Crhist, you'll be pulling the "Last Orders" post-'True Faith' fan bullshit next.....
I'm an ancient bastard, and a veteran of 30 something gigs... Al J. was kind enough to hand me and the Mrs a pin badge each - it was her 2nd gig and she loved every minute...
I presume 'The Vikings' can be labelled as the NO 'hardore' from anywhere in the globe - as long as they regularly attend gigs, get-togethers, etc.
Speaking of such, the girly is off to Reading at the end of the month, so I'm free to see 'Digital' and go for a few beers if the arrangement is still on.
Cheers all
Eh?.Whats all this " i was at a gig years before yous lot" bore?.Im not even goin to bloody Rio!!!.Furthest i`m goin this Summer is to the corner shop to stock up on cigs and beer before settling down to watch loads of old NO videos .

Ms Wood, please clarify. If it's a name it should start with a capital letter or did you miss an l off the end?

Don't think it's the majority at all. Most of us are 37-40'ish so been New Order since the day dot. You can't mither the likes of Shug just cos he's a young 'un. Nice to see the Yoof element made it through, and soooperb to see the likes of Conor and Liam maintaining the vanguard.
Anyways, I saw New Order a few times in 86 and believe me, Brum wasn't on me agenda. It's a shitehole, dontcha know. Credit this boy with some class, please!
Uncle Liam wrote: Why cant i see half of this page?
It's because James was supposed to write his line "Chris wrote that????" right behind "quote in the brackets" but obviously he didn't do so. Not only he screwed this page but he also made it look like "Chris wrote that????" was something Al said which isn't true. It would be for the best if he edited his post or perhaps Tim should do that for him!
i think the vikings are the followers of nu ordr from the early 80's i went to the g-mex gig in manchester in 1988 and the opening coming on stage music besides alan wise's comments was the theme tune from the film the vikings.i think it is all down to mr hook? does this help?
