If one of The Corby Order want to designate themselves as a driver, I would be more than willing to be a passenger for this. I still havnae seen the buggers live!!!!
I think this could very well be a possibility. Have to check with JT later tonight but sounds good to me!!
I am afraid that i will miss this one lads ?? I will be in China when this is on !!!!!! BUMMER !!!!

Get a B&B ya wee tightarse! only about £20 per person and theres one about two mins from the venue.
It was mentioned in on of the threads last time they played the witchwood.
And lets be honest, it is Ashton for crying out loud. If its over £20 yer being ripped off!
Once again no can do, going to Germany that weekend! Fucking 3 i havent been able to go to this year
Might be up for this. Will speak to ness and see what she thinks. Normally a good night there. Cheap beer etc
Sorry peeps - but im off to Sheffield to see the might Mogwai who live pish on any band out there

I cant remember if it had a floor, i was that pish!
Missed them last time,and once is enough.I shall be digging out the air-bass,invading the stage and disarming the one-armed man. 
Senor Banshee! Where are yer staying mate? Are you staying up Ashton,or do you want to stop at mine an get taxi?

Barney Army wrote: Pre match piss up?
this IS the pre-match piss up, isn't it? the shorts may have to come out again for this one...
in fact, I might just buy a drink for anyone else suitably attired "c'mon shorts wearers - let's be 'avin you!"
Barney Army wrote: Pre match piss up?
will certainly be up for't pre-match mate.
4 of us had already thought about coming over manc by way of my birthday celebration :) so including re-order as well now.be down town at 5.30,probally go on to ashton around 9ish. HAVE IT
monty - what time can you get out ?
Barney Army wrote: I'd rather be seen is shorts than 'wearing' a Strat
people who remember the eighties call them 'real' instruments. [although seeing as it's a strat copy played by a fake band - I don't know if it qualifies for the moniker 'real'] in fact, your lack of familiarity with real instruments shouldn't preclude you from joining the band...
[and wearing shorts]
At the moment, i will spending the night before on the piss in altrincham, staying at my mates house. I see absolutely no point in trekking from alty to failsworth to come straight back out again.
Email me yer number grant and we'll sort it out.
We are both defo up for this one. Will be comming down on the saturday I believe. We are bring Al with us in the car. Should be in Manc some time in the afternoon. Why are you out in Alti Liam?
Got a mate who lives up there. Not seem him in a while and fancy a few in the belgian beer bar there.
Oh, and the fact that i'm right posh!

Redlight Hacienda Album Luanch Party: Mike Pickering + Graeme Park + Peter Hook + Shovell + Krysko + Bucky (2) At Sankeys Soap, Manchester From 10:00pm until 4:00am Price: £12.00/£11.00 NUS/£10.00 in advance
Had a quick look on the Sankey Soap website and Hooky is defo doing this one. We could possible get to this after the gig has finished as we are all in town on that night. Or near enough.

If I'm working all day,I should be in town for 5.30 meself.I'll try and wrangle an early finish as Monty has been going dry for over a month and has forgotten what beer tastes like.

This should be cracking. I had a great night last time I was at Sankeys
bearing in mind this new development... what's the consensus? we're a bit bewildered that this has happened again (hooky playing locally on the same night). on one hand, the witchwood could be a great warm up for the hacienda evening - on the other, people might decide to miss out a bus trip to ashton and go straight to the 'main event'. if this is to be the case then we should let the venue know to re:schedule because if we play it and everyone's at sankey's then the promoter won't have us back. I'm thinking that the timings of the two events mean we could work consecutively rather than concurrently together. any feelings on that one? any cunning plans? if anyone thinks this offers a conflict of interests rather than the perfect supplement let us know.... cheers
Well, i'm going to the warm up and not the main events, shall we say. Not paying £10 to watch some bloke spin records.
Uncle Liam wrote: Well, i'm going to the warm up and not the main events, shall we say. Not paying £10 to watch some bloke spin records.
same 'ere.
I'm too old to boogey with drug fuelled kids at Sankeys anyway. 
REEE OORRDAHH!!!
Well I'll be at the Witchwood for sure - and so will anybody else who's got their right head on.

All depends what time you're on really, I guess, then what time Hooky's on.

If Hooky's is on quite a bit later, it would be fun to try and do the two!
Anybody getting a train here from Man? I'm planning all day session in Man then jumping on train.
Seeing as you are event co-ordinator Liam I'll be in touch nearer the date
Just one stop on the train from Victoria I seem to remember.
Uncle Liam wrote: What? Me? Event co-ordinator? thats worth at least 4 pints!
sort a venue for the meet up then, otherwise water for you big man.
Anywhere handy for Victoria train St best.
Shambles Square could be good, outdoor beers and handy for the big wheel 
We will most likely be going up Friday night, so def out on Sat early!
Sounds like a good turn out.
Right, anyone who thinks of Joshua Brooks can kiss my arse...
I was walking past Moon Under Water last night but then remembered it was a wetherspoons...
I'm quite taken by Cord Bar in the Northern Quarter, which is on a little side street opposite matt and phreds, and its only about 5 minutes walk to victoria station. Other than that, theres the Crown and Anchor. Or even the pub on victoria station itself. Which is piss easy for me i must say!

Cord's a bit small when it gets packed though, eh?!
Glad no-one's mentioned Dry yet.
If the weather isnt too bad I vote outdoor beers in Shambles Square.
Plenty of shoppers to shout 'Nuu Orrdahh' at
might as well start off in shambles,rest of the night might be a shambles
bar fringe is o.k. on swan street but we'll come meet you all anywhere really

SHAMBLES! For a cheeky German Wheat Beer.I should be there a bit earlier now....because of my new promotion! I'm only working till 12.30 Saturday now,before which I will be cracking that whip at work.I'll give you two a bell before weekend.
Right. Heres the conclusion i have come to.
We meet in Moon under Water at 2ish. If its nice day, we move to shambles square to drink foreign beer and shout "NU ORDAH" at the stupid fucking goths riding around on their little skateboards. If its a shit day, we stay in moon under water before its nice enough to go to a better pub without getting pissed on. Possibly Corbierres.
Then we fuck off to ashton 6/7 ish.
Can't leave the south till 5-ish so will be going straight to the venue. Save me a place - preferably near the bar.

5-ish? 
what time are the boys on?
I have the simply wonderful privilege of seeing my family on saturday morning (first time in 8 months, quite impressed with that!) so i may now be out a bit earlier.
I'm not out now until at least 9.30. It's my Dad's 60th birthday so can't really not go - gutted! Can't even get bladdered cos i have to drive and be up early Sunday morning. Really not happy, but i'm sure i'll have a good night.
Sorry, will be working until 7pm so won't realistically get a chance of getting there in time!
So, what's the consensus on the plan of attack?
Moon Under The Water for 2pm?
You Norvern boys sure do know how to show us Suvvern lads a good time, hey? At the very least I was expecting an Oyster Bar!
Yep. I'll jump on the train at 1340 and walk down.
I presume everyone knows where it is?
And, who all is coming?
So far, i've got Me, Jarvo, Grant, Ness and Greg, Grant, Monty, Lunatic Fridge (who wont be there until late) Mr and Mrs Barney Army, Colin (if he recovers from Bird Flu in time) and i think thats it? Anyone else?
I am, but i'm gonna drive down. I'll be sober but at least i won't miss re:Order again! Besides gonna get wrecked tonight so i'll be rough!

Me & Milky are coming up for it, but we have to visit Milky's parents in Rochdale first. :(
Dunno what time we will be free so will probably go straight to the venue. See you all in there!

Sinclairs in Shambles Sq is an oyster bar, and Shambles is on the itinerary :)

No Wetherspoons have TV.

.and am going spain tomorrow afternoon. ALL INCLUSIVE DRINKS OF COURSE
Hope you have a good time mate. Aww my head! Sign of a top night.RE-Order were excellent,Will I'll get yer posters up during the week mate. Great to meet everyone again.Banshee,Spam,Liam,Missy Jem (ooh you scrub up well!),Ness and Greg,Lucy and JT,Big Al,Robbo,BIGINOIL (sorry DIAMOND).Sorry if I missed anyone. I'm in need of a bacon sarnie,any offers?
By all accounts a good time was had by all. Wish I could rember more of it.
I remember thinking that Barney Army would make a total arse of the rat a tat's and being stunned into silence when he didn't. Now that's not something that happens a lot!
Congratulations to Barney Army for recognising me in my John Shuttleworth jacket and introducing himself. No prize though but the rat a tat tat was indeed excellent.
I forget myself. A big thank you to Re Order themselves of course. Excellent stuff and well worth seeing. 'Barney' sounded like the real thing although whether he would have worn a pair of Arsenal shorts is debateable.
Fantastic night, good turn out, great performance by the band and BA/Robbo guesting. (How can we keep track of who is who with all this Robbo/Diamond business!)
It was an eventful night with many stage invasions, Liam nicking most of the rider from the dressing room, poor Al's spectacular fall and Monty's gymnastics.
Thanks to Will for guesting those who had travelled long distance. Great to see the legs out again, even if the shorts were inappropriate Arsenal!
Slowly the reports come in as people sober up.
Good to see some usual faces - Ness, Greg, Liam, Al, BA.
Good to see some new ones too - Monty, Missy Jem - others I was too pissed to remember.
BiginOil popped his Re:Order cherry - I hope we were gentle with him.
And if anyone can remember how I ended up on my arse at one point please let me know.
What a great night... Re-Order were excellent and I've not danced on a floor that sticky for years, it took me back to the good old days of the Marquee.

Most people ended up on their arse at some point, Al dropping a pint early on didn't help the condition of the floor!
I seem to remember Liam trying to recreate the QEH gig by almost taking out Wills teeth with the mike stand
Which strongman lifted me up? My head almost cracked the ceiling 
thumbs up for Sunrise, certainly got people moving, great cover.
Lunatic Fridge wrote: And if anyone can remember how I ended up on my arse at one point please let me know.
I remember!! You and Monty were belly jumping each other and i think Monty got a bit carried away and launched you on your back. It was hilarious, i think only me and JT witnessed it, everybody else was moshing!! Very funneh!
(Not as funny as Al's fall though, serves him right for bullying me)
Had a top, top night. Re:Order are amazing, Will really does sound like Barney! Wish i hadn't been sober but had a great night regardless. Good to put names to faces!
If anyone thought I was bad at the gig, should have seen it when i got home. I was slouched on the floor, talking absolute nonsense by all accounts.
The gig itself. Well, Re: Orders rider wasnt been used. And i only drunk this horrible bright orange cider which didnt agree with me. Nice to hear Sunrise get played, nice to know that constant moaning over 8 months gets me somewhere.
Ness Order wrote: ...poor Al...
I don't remember anything about this, but what I have heard makes me doubt that any protrayal of Al as an unfortunate victim is entirely appropriate!
As ever, great to read the accounts on here - puts the smile back on the face (and fills in a couple of gaps).
We behaved quite badly, didn't we
Best laugh of the night was Jem trying to stay upright in heels in the middle of a three-man fight at the front of the stage, escaping to the relative safety of the side of the room, shouting 'stop pushing me into the mosh pit' over her shoulder, then jumping straight back into the throng. Sober? My arse!
Hurt? It's a miracle nobody was.

Shit, forgot my poll.
I believe the quotes were that Liam is; a) the most interesting thing on NOOL, and b) the most intelligent person at work
though I don't doubt for a minute that the other two statements were uttered at some stage.
Can't believe you were in a worse state or spoke "bigger" shite when you got back Liam, that really was some performance on verbal incontinence.:)

"I don't know what you're talking about!"
I've just looked at the set list, and theres very little i remember of it. Definitley dont remember 586 at the end. And Ultraviolence? What i do remember was thinking "they've hardly done anything" when they went offstage. No wonder I acquired most of their drink, I was feeling ripped off!
Next time, I'm going to be sober. Well, sober-ish.
took me a while but I get the Captain Pugwash / Vikings analogy now
are the re: order lads comfortable with having the daftest fans on earth?
'forward roley poleys' is the new mosh.

Well if we are agreed that 5* hotels are the new alternative to camping at festivals, of course roley poleys should be the new mosh
By the way, you were superb during confusion, considering you are a "proper manc"
Once again a smart day, and gig. The venue needs to sort out that lighting system, I didn't seem to make much difference for a while, but got there in the end. And I'm the lighting tech!!! It was a very eventful evening, Al falling on his ass, BA dancing like a demond, and yes it was me who picked you up(Lardy) after you nearly put my head through the ceiling. Good to see the usaul crowd and a few more new faces. Once again what a TOP NIGHT.
