I always enjoyed the irony of these testosteroned yobboes dancing to the homo-erotic hi-energy of tracks like "Bizarre Love Triangle".

Hi! This is Yann, who started that forum. Thank you for enjoying talking about my suggestion. Sorry, it was getting too late in Tokyo and I couldn't continue reading your comments. No matter they are gay or not, they're just genius! The problem is why are you so much concerned about that question?!!! Want to try?... Anyway, I didn't hear nothing about if NO have some plan to come in Tokyo for live or not...???

Hi Yann, you must be a little disappointed to return and find 1.5 pages of intelligent discourse and 5.5 pages of wiener gags but that's par for the course here sometimes.

As for your suggestion that some members continued on so far it became suspect, well who knows? There appears to be a huge wad of posts by our Washington correspondent which people may or may not read something into.

well as someone who frequented the hacienda back in the early to mid eighties id say that the whole factory scene not just new order was flirting with disco/gay/hiphop/electro whatever ya wanna call it. i spent many a happy night at the hac dancing to "confusion" which i still think is one of their best dance efforts to date. (hear it full belt in a club)believe me it take on a life of its own. as for the gay issue,watch the confusion video and check out barneys keks it just might make you think twice. and even if one of em was who would care really?

Of course, it doesn't need mentioning 'cos we all know it's true. All that sexual tension displaced onto fighting, lads just wanting to get their hands on each other......;)

OK, maybe New order caters to the gay crowd. But Duran Duran has more fat white chicks as fans than New Order. Does that make Nick Rhodes a fat White chick?

11:45 pm in Perth on a Saturday night and DC hasn't been seen here in hours. Perhaps he's walking in the park, when it gets late at night. We miss you, DC.

I'd forgotten about that. That was quite a sight. I wonder how long it's been since he wore those?

There are several instances in which Barney does appear in white disco shorts, but he also has performed in his underwear - didn't someone once post up those pictures on here?

Anyway, I figured I'd reply to this thread eventually. I've never thought of New Order as a gay band - or even Depeche Mode as a once - but just as a band making good dance music. Now, I've never been to a gay disco, so I don't know what kind of music would be played there, but hopefully it's better than the crap getting played at a straight top-40 club.

Are the Pet Shop Boys gay??! :eek: :uhoh:

Tell me about it, when I saw them live in 1990, I wasn't aware of that fact, I was wearing proudly my t-shirts with roses on it at school the next day... then I read the press review of the show talking about Gay disco :lol: Not that there is anything wrong with that, but I'm not sure it's the image you want to show when you are single and looking ;)

*I don't think so, Nic. Girls just love the Pet Shop Boys, (more than males), and they know that they have a varied audience. I think you have more chances of getting a bird with a PSB shirt (the girl just thinks "he looks so sensitive with that PSB roses shirt, he's just so cute, he's just so SEXY!) than wearing an AC-DC T shirt, that's macho music and the most of the girls hate it, actually metal is the true gay music (just look at those ridiculous long haired leathered fans embraced together and shacking their heads). ;)

*I feel envy for Johnny Marr. In an interview he said he's always been with the same girl, called Angie, since they were 13 and that they've alwys been happy together... I know only one other person who can say such a thing. I mean I'm very happy with my girlfriend now but it's just one year and I'd have liked to spend the previous years with her just like Johnny and Angie rather than living the mess I've lived since I were 13 between years of few short good stories, some long bad stories, loneliness and many short bad stories... ;)

*It's still amazing for me to see that if you're in Hawaii it's Saturday morning, but if you go a little to the West in Christmas Islands it's already Sunday morning... I mean, if I was in Christmas Islands I could go to the Hawaii and live the same day twice, is this the secret to live forever? :confused2: :nuts: Would be a bit expensive though :D

I'm not immediately sure about the meaning of "gayish." Is that somewhat gay? Or is it the language spoken by gays?
