They didn't do any wooping or whistling. No sign of an autocue. No hamster dancing. No shouting "come on".

Ian Curtis? :nonono:

Naaaah..... he (James Skelly) looks more like Lee Mavers (of The La's) actually.

You need your eyes tested mate.

And as for Epileptic Ladyland - jeesus - that hair on the drummer (who looks scarily like Jack White Stripes brother actually) will give me nightmares tonight.:uhoh:

:abovelol: And that Coral gimp does look like him out of the La's, but he tried to mimic Curtis in their last song,ever so slightly..Maybe Ian is hero of his.......The order were Quality,Barney is always value for screwing up his lines:laugh: always recovers with a nonchalant grace:bow2: Hooky seemed a little more irritated with Barney in the interview,than usual:scratch:I,m gunna watch again,there was something iffy about the way Hooky never looked across at Barney when he said"Keep an eye on your lead singer"Normally, when they have this craic,they exchange giggles...Could just be me,I'm gunna view again:shades:

2 things...

  1. Holy good fuck.....did New Order just take a gig seriously? that was really really good. Even transmission didn't make me cringe.

2.I'm shocked at how blinkered some of my fellow orderites seem. I liked just about everything I heard on that show. Least fave was prob Faith wasserface, cos I really don't go much for that kind of souly/r+b thing. But my faves were son of dave ( I mean come ON, the man made entire tracks that held together fabulously with a couple of loop pedals, a harmonica and his gob, even if you thought it was pigshit, you gotta admit the talent) and accoustic ladyland, brilliant musicians....now fair enough, a 74 mins cd of that stuff would cause my brain to liquify, but I'm sure they do other things. I admit tho, that music of that type is really only of interest to other musicians and pretneious jazz cunts ( who are deeply hated by any decent jazzer I ever spoke to..."dinnerjacket, silent sitting, solo clapping dull as dishwater wankers" was the assessment of the average Jazz audience by a well respected jazz orchestra leader I know)....and even the muso's get bored and feck off to the bar after 20 mins. I do like the idea of people learning to be astonishing on their instruments. then decide to go mental and make a racket.....it's the opposite of NO, who with the exception of Steve can't play (by pro standards) for shite....yet turn out some of the most beautiful music man has ever known. What the noisey little kiddies need to learn is to play the nice stuff too, THEN make all the clever noise, but sadly there comes a point in a musicians ability where they truly DO vanish up there own hole. I watched that happen to a fellow bassplyer from college, he could kick my ass, and it annoyed me, but I had it explained to me, that I was the bassplayer getting all the gigs cos I knew "how to fuck up and groove", and that I never ever picked the bass up between gigs or sessions, and the other chap had no life cos he played like 8 hrs a day. A few years after college he came back over from England with his band, every one of them a total virtuoso, every song total and complete pish.....imagine a noise like accoustic ladyland, but with idiotic John Zorn time and tempo changes every 3 bars. AAAARRRRRRGGGGGHHHH

Put it this way, Epileptic Laddered Tights are only good for one thing.....and that is the resident band of jizzbo nutters you'd expect to see in that Fast Show Jazz Club sketch. Totally unsyncopated novelty garbage!:evil4:

Well put. I can appreciate their talent and energy without actually wanting to hear them again.

well the show is sat on my hard drive and ive flicked through a few times. tbh KRAFTY is poor,cmon be honest. wftsc is a cut down version,and transmission was ok,but is it me or did they look and sound a bit tired?. and i add i wasnt expecting much,but wftsc was good i must admit,but for me the opening credit was the bonus. others will confirm but was it INCUBATION that was being played as the intro to the show? sure sounded like it.

Oui, c'est très vrai! In fact if they really wanted to impress us, they SHOULD have instead attempted a cover version of that John Cage track "Silence (4min 37secs)" - though I bet even then you'll still hear the swishing of that drummers humungous hair. :evil4:

Contrary to popular belief Barney's Autocue does NOT feature any lyrics to the songs they play - instead it actually shows lots of tantalisingly droolsome pictures of tempting desserts and cakes and roast dinners and beer and sex and chips and gravy as a way of taunting him whilst he's performing - you see that's why he gets so wound up singing - he grunts and yelps and whoops and coughs and HUUURRRGHHH!!s - cos he simply cannot wait to get off that stage and stuff his fat face with all that yummy scran again.

Now you know. :shades:

Were they all sitting at the piano in the interview to hide their big fat bellies?.Hooky had his School Teacher elbow padded sweater on again.Cool.Bernard looks quite young one second and the fat and old the next.Quite strange.

They probably sounded a bit tired because it`s such a sterile show:sleep:

Yeah - too much formula and not enough Formula One.

Besides, the show has always featured the muso aristocracy and the indie stalwarts and the token fart in a jam jar weirdos chowing down with the old Grand Prix of rock eh?:D

Missed the jam over the intro, Krafty was OK but then it's not my favourite, WFTSC was superb as you'd expect, and I thought the dedication to IC was a nice touch - "Ian Curtis died 25 years ago so we'd like to play this song for him, it's a Joy Division song called Transmission". Not exactly word for word but you catch my drift. Sure someone will correct this now. Roll on Hyde Park...

i thought it was excellent.really pleased.glad no jetstream in sight.amusing interview.did i even hear a quick whistle from bernard at one point? or did the vodka put that in my head.cant wait for hyde park and t in park now

All sounds rather positive here so far. Have the Yanks not caught sight of this yet to stick in their two'penneth?! Barney did a WHISTLE during Transmission - surely that alone deserves some bile in his direction?! What would Curtis have thought, eh?! Blah blah blah.

And the Glass of Wine on Barney's Guitar Amp,takes me back to the Pernod and Holsten Pils Day's.

Oh and thanks for your message on the other side :bow2:
