Well someone sent me the Jonathan Ross show performace and I am... well...

Speechless...

There is certainly no need to kick a band when they are down and possibly out, particularly when they are doing such a wonderful job themselves...

As there are plenty of long time fans even around here who are equally (or almost) appalled by the recent descent I dont think any of it needs further pointing out... so my work here is done... I really dont begrudge the band a victory lap nor any listeners who derive pleasure from that which is not my cup of tea... music should be an enjoyable, pleasurable thing and when its not its time to move on... and so I shall...

Now back to your regularly scheduled program... toodle ooo!

Can someone remind the late AJ that NO's career is littered with debacles and painfully bad live performances? Surely it's part of their charm. But it's the moments of mesmerising genius, unreachable by most other bands, that keep us coming back.

Let's not forget he recently suggested Sneaker Pimps were a band NO should be aspiring towards.

everyone seems to have forgotten the totp performance of Blue Monday, well out of tune and did no justice to the track. not to mention the Rock Around The Clock thing on BBC in 84ish. Although that was so bad it was completely cool.

New Order were brilliant on the JR show. At least they can do shows like that.It could be worse they could be doing 80s revival shows with The Human League and ABC etc. New Orders beauty is they really dont give a fuck!!!!
