I'm sure I just heard an advert on Capital Radio about the Wireless festival...New Order were mentioned...nothing on the Wireless website except a "news coming soon" bit.:confused2:

sure the mention wasn't something like "following this year's surprising not bollox set from New Order we're looking forward to next year or some marketing wank like that"

Steve, you appear to have included an extra 'not' in there. :skeptic:

A lot of 'technical' problems at this gig. Not one of their better performances. Although I didn't notice any of this till it was pointed out afterwards. Down the front, taking the piss out of Pete Doherty look alikes aint the best place to judge a gig.

I did hear that Wireless was the biggest UK crowd, with them headlining, that they'd ever played. Piss poor weather might have kept a few punters away. My new timberlands got well and truly christened!.

Comparing the two boots, Glasto (the following day) was by far the better performance IMO.

Right up to the appearance of fuckin 'orse, anyway!

C'mon, it was the first night of a brand new festival.

Note like there isn't any other festival in England, but damn it, doing it at the same time as Glastonbury isn't the idea of the year.
