I know. But after they dropped the name "Joy Division", they officially became New Order in, I believe, 1980.
1986/87 for me so i voted for 17-20 years!
you dont get that for murder in this country these days!

..and where's the time gone. Quite scary really.:\ohwell:
20 years for me.
A further poll question could be: how many of the 20+ fans completely lost interest between, say, '90 and '93 (extend this to early '98 if you will), writing the band off as a bland parody of its former self?
37 years! It was great listening to the sounds Barney and Hooky made whilst being beaten by the maths teachers pump.

I'll raise you.....from March 89 to 1993, then very quickly again from the closing credits of TOTP Baywatch to Brixton 2001. That's almost as long away as home.

Yeah the month that BM was released. I'd heard Temptation previously but didn't know who recorded it then BM popped up. I was quite gutted to learn they had played The State twice no less the same month.
22ND AND 23RD Of March
I know this cos somebody sent me both shows on CD not long ago.
Cheers to whoever that was - ma memory is gash![]()
Back onto the subject started by Jan - how d'ya think I felt matey, just got into the Order and they split up for 4 years, then when they do comeback they split up again almost straight away for another 5 years. With Celtic going 9 years without a league title and hardly any New Order it's amazing I turned out as normal as I am:D

I don't think they'd have let me in. I was 14.
