Whilst reading today's Observer I noticed an advert for their occasional music monthly supplement magazine. It's quite a cool advert they've been using for a year or two where they just have 26 icons of band line-ups repesenting the letters A-Z. (They look like Lego people without faces). Well, I think they've had a bit of an update, as I went along the line trying to guess the artists imagine my surprise when I got to the letter 'N'. Lordy, it's not Nirvana, they've changed it to New Order! The Hooky icon is particularly funny as he appears to be wearing a grey vest. I guess New Order have finally made it. Most famous band beginning with 'N'. It's strange that they've picked New Order because they're not exactly known for their look. I recognise 25 but I don't know who X is, but I suspect he's a bit of a rapper. I wonder how many people have looked at that advert and said "Who the f**k is N?"

Its been around a while. First featured at the Rob Gretton gig. Hopefully next months Observer Music Monthly will have a good piece on the band. Its one of the few mainstream Music magazines that makes any sense.
