What are New Order Getting for Christmas?

What does the forum think the lads will be getting their for their Christmas?:D

Steve A Tank Barney A Bottle of Pernod Hooky A new Tatoo Gillian Keyboard lessons

A load of fans bemoaning the lack of rarities on Retro. Oh wait, that was last year.

Maybe "The Best Of Crawling Chaos".

God knows who proof read the Retro Booklet, but it's littered with mistakes.

It's pretty crap really

That beach club gig sounds terrible, who was the person who introduced them that night?

I think Barney had been reading the book "How to be witty at public events" that day.

Beer makes the holidays go by quicker...:beer2:

Barney needs a photocopier and a bra. Hooky needs an electric shaver/beard trimmer and some dungarees. Steve needs a plan ticket to Siberia. Gillian needs a plane ticket to where I'm at.

Phil Cunningham needs to leave the band and let the rightful keyboard/rhythm guitarist back.

Barney will get a new haircut Hooky will get some lipo Steve and Gillian will get speech lessons

Barney: the book "Memorizing the Lyrics You Once Wrote in Just One Week". Hooky: a better electronic drum kit. Stephen:....hey, he has Gillian and tanks. He's all set! Gillian: A proper nanny for the children, so she can get back in the program!

I've got a recording of an interview when New Order toured Australia in 2001. The band was asked,

"What is the crappiest present you've ever gotten?"

Stephen: Happened to mention that he liked Scrabble and ended up receiving 5 Deluxe Scrabble Sets from different people. Hooky: Was just getting into D.I.Y and he asked his mother for a jigsaw but received a 2000 piece jigsaw of the Houses of Parliment. Barney: I don't think I've ever been given a bad present... erm, no, actually... the worst present I ever got was... er, how can I say this on air? It was from a pair of girls in Santa Barbara. I think I ended up with crabs.

The female interviewer wasn't too impressed if remember correctly.

They will all be getting drugs to put up their nose probably........ :bag:

Hooky - a mullet wig Steve - keyboarding lessons (if you watched 316, you can see he needs them more than Gillian) Barney - me, with a camera, outside his window. :D

How about a literary christmas :D

Barney - Stop Swearing in Fifteen Minutes!

Hooky - Your Mullet and You: Body Care and Grooming

Gillian - Reuniting after Long Seperation

Steve - How To Play the Drums: A Beginner's Guide

Barney: A Book - The Atkins Diet Hooky: A Video - 'The Mrs Merton Show' Steve: Weight Gain 4000 Gillian: Makeover to get her back to looking like the rock chick that she was

Lets hope they get some inspiration to write and record some songs along the lines of crystal, behind close doors, age of consent, round and round, weirdo and vanishing point.

Socks.

Barney: Valium and Prozac to get him through next year's 500 date world tour. Hooky: Some new leopard print kecks. Steve: Zodiac Mindwarp's autobiography to help him be a bit more, you know, rock'n'roll. Gillian: A cardboard cutout of herself to stop all the "who's gonna replace her?" threads on here.

You think it'll hit the right notes with more consistency than the real issue?

I think there's a fair chance...
