Am I the only one gobsmacked that someone's still asking them about the name New Order ... twenty-five years on?!

:nonono:

... and still, after 25 years and Barney nearly @ his 50's, someone's interested in the size of his penis... :moose:

and it wasn't a woman!

If this set of questions was truly representative of the ones asked, either they copped for a pretty ropey batch of questions, or the whole thing was weighted to avoid anything interesting. The whole thing's been passed off as a pisstake, when some people no doubt had genuine and interesting questions that should have been worthy of a response. Never mind, it's bollocks.

The questions overall were very disappointing, nothing terribly original.

I was thinking that, based on the sorts of questions they asked, maybe I should have asked the question "why don't you change your name to Old Order now?"

Consider this my little present to you seeing as the Q&A's were so crap and I'm sure that those here that sent questions in asked far better questions than were printed.

Compare and contrast the '87 pic with the '05 one. Who's aged best? For me Steve takes it. Hooky looks shocking and it's either the light or Barney's gone grey :cry:

Gillian has aged best. She looks like a 29-year old bloke now.

Sometimes fan websites go a bit overboard. Hooky and Barney are nearly 50 for fook sake, with the lifestyle they've led I think they look remarkably good for their age.

As for the questions?

Who decided on them? We've heard most of the stories before.....but I do like the "Did you get aroused on the Baywatch set?" That's one I would have liked to have thought of :lol:

Just back from spending £3.90 on the fecking rag and its on here.

Photo's aint too flattering, but as Shug say's they've held up remarkably well given their intake over the years. And I reckon Barney would look a lot younger if his face was a bit 'slimmer'. Anyway, who am I to talk :laugh:

Liked Hooky's quote about being 17 but in your dad's body!

1 Feb 2005, 07:48

C'mon, how can anyone complain about an interview which ends with Hooky saying "you Swiss knobhead"???

Ha! Peter knows the size of Barney's cock. :eek:

Some of the questions could've been better but it was OK. Cheers for posting it, Nic.

Barney looks like I'm looking at fucking Andy Rooney 20 years ago.:bag:

Thank the guy who sent it to me!

It's Last of the Summer Wine with Hooky as Compo!

Hooky looks like a homeless man who smells like piss and asks for change. Barney looks like a nice old man, and Steve looks younger than the rest. Nothing new here.

I think Hooky looks like Gonzo from The Muppetts just before a ski outing.

"He's got services on it" :rofl: Come on, nothing original, but good for general readers (it's not a fanzine, it's your average Q, the most average magazine...), you have to read those things for the first time somewhere... we all have already but, believe it or not, many haven't yet, so this is a good chance... And it definitely has its funny moments... good to see they haven't lost their wonderfully Mancunian sense of humour...

poor steve, every time he´s more and more away from the others on pics. this time even on the other page! :evil4:

i still laugh a lot when i see steve in that tank. just his head comming out of it and the detail of the little scooter-like rearview mirror! :rofl:

1 Feb 2005, 22:33

Apart from Hooky looking like a failed bank robber in that new pic, I like the pic from 1987 better. Steve is such a fucking goof...hilarious! Always making silly faces, even in that interview clip from Something Else in 1979. And Gillian is holding a rather familiar looking geetar.

Have to admit that the pernod question was mine!!Agreed it was a shite question to ask but in Q magazines case the shitter the question the more chance youve got! But i still got to ask my hero"s a question and i will put the £25 towards my Glastonbury ticket where New Order will headline the Pyramid stage on Sunday night (I saw it in a dream) :D:D
