Assuming I have the time and resources: anywhere, baby!

I know it must be difficult up there in Aberdeen, Fradders, but there is no need to stoop so low is there? Surely there must be whores on street corners, or sheep?
Well, it is all a question of budget with my Lovely wife, but that said, possibly as far as we could (we're dreaming to visit Japan and Australia sometimes if we can make it, and why not to see NewOrder perform there at the same time), That would be a dream come true. Apart from that, and except my first No.gig here in Belgium way back in '85, I've just seen them on their turf in UK and once in Paris (26 May 2002).

Yuck. Do I need reminding. I was on the same coach. Levellers fans outnumbered New Order fans 10-1.
And then we all got fcuking sunburned at the gig before a long journey back!
Happy, er, days!
Over to Barca for Primavera.
Went all the way to New York and Seattle with DoN and New Order never bothered their fuckin arses. Still we met up with WenOrder, 006, Green, Brother Jeff, Biznotic & Wee Churchy :D
Money permitting......ANYWHERE!
From Montreal to Chicago... then Chicago to New York.
I believe it's about the same distance for both..
1,202 km 747 miles
Last summer I went from Rome to London, the next weekend from Rome to Turin. It was worth it!
from Dallas to London twice...
Dallas to San Francisco...
and Austin to Oakland...
Hell, I've seen the order more times outside of Texas than I have in Texas...
I wish I could have joined Al and Mr. Giles on their World Tour with the Order...but I obviously don't get the holidays that they do...and gave up credit cards after my divorce....so it wasn't to be...sniff sniff...
I'd go to Iraq tomorrow to see the order...if it was allowed!!!

Anywhere, if workscedule&money allow me. last one:Amersfoort(NL)- Carhaix Plouguer 1200kilometers! Great trip!
From Manchester to Las Vegas in May this year.Then Drove to Coachella Festival from L.V.
From there drove to L.A. via San Diago for two nights.Got flight from L.A. to N.Y. for the Hammerstien gig.
Spent a fucking fortune .......![]()
One overnight drive, in 85, about 850 miles one way I think, well worth the trip. Put about 1300 miles, in four days, on the rental car for the Oakland/Coachella swing.
I'd go just about anywhere in the world to see 'em, if other things didn't get in my way (more props to those who can manage it
)
i had tickets to see them at Ally Pally in 98.. had to cancel (looks lovingly at his unused ticket).
but this year i flew from Florida to California to see them..
that's a good 2500+ miles
I'd documented my four day journey recently. Cost above an average months wage where I live, and there was a hanging threat of a carabignery suspecting I was going to Italy for black market work and not letting me in.
