At last!!! My first New Order gig.......in pictures!

The gig in question? NO at The Hacienda in 1984,the Low-Life tour. It was also my first hand experience of not only going to a gig that didn't have seats (ie Manchester Apollo), but the first gig where I was in a mosh-pit,and crushed against the stage. You can tell how close I was by Gillian's photo.

Anyway here they are.Watch out for my other live photos which I've finally got round to transferring to disc.

The gig where Tony Wilson came on stage after a bit of pushing and shoving,and said,"Come on...get back.They're a bunch of ugly bastards anyway..."

Oh and here's some more Hacienda Photos.

Here's CABARET VOLTAIRE!

And here's THOMAS DOLBY on his FLAT EARTH tour..

excellent pics mont.great to see old gig pics.i wasn't there but went to 2 of the new order gigs there in 83.maybe old gig pics would make a great thread?

btw i didnt know you'd seen the cabs live

Got some ace pictures of CITIES IN THE PARK,the Martin Hannett memorium gig at Heaton Park from back in 1991 (?). Coming up......REVENGE and ELECTRONIC!

Nice photos Monty - keep 'em coming! Cheers!

Cool photos... Wow Gillian was hot back then...

Cheers Monty, it's always good to see old concert pics. Wasn't the gig from '85 though? Look forward to the CITP ones.

Nice work Monty - gig was 16/7/85 rather than 1984.

Great pics, also great to see the Cabs in action (thank you for those )

Super-cool mate

Want to add these to the smallish gig image bank I'm compiling here. Some of these some of you may not have seen before. Yes, the first set isn't of New Order but some band most of the group were in before. :)

FANTASTIC.This is the first time i have seen pictures of TATTON COMMUNITY CENTRE in CHORLEY.I moved to CHORLEY in 1982 and missed this concert as i did not KNOW they were playing only about 10 miles from my home town then called DARWEN.Tim(OLDMONKEY) has supplied me with the gig on cassette but i am glad i have seen these pictures here. REGARDS Rocket Mick
