US DJ Tour for Peter Hook! Updated 2005.09.09 — Forum Archive

8 Sep 2005, 10:06

Anybody considering going to see Hook in Buffalo? I may be there that weekend for my pal's birthday bash. Its my hometown and most of my family still lives there.

I bet the last time a member of new order step foot in buffalo was in 87.

Yes.. I got 3 items signed in Chicago (you can see my WFTSC in the random images and Revenge No Pain No Gain too) and in New York there was a line up next to his table for autographs.

So bring your gear!

I've seen several shows there, sometimes inside, sometimes outside, I dunno what the plan is for Peter Hook though but I can tell you, an outside gig in October in Orlando might be nice so wherever it is, I'm sure people will be reprazentin'.

is it near the I-bar, then? my knowledge of downtown orlando nightspots is appalling as i haven't lived here long enough to know that part of the city that well (i live next to universal), nor have i been interested in going out enough to care (although i did frequent the I-bar for a number of months).

What happened to the Los Angeles date?

8 Sep 2005, 18:34

I'll try to make Denton or Austin... I'm broken, I don't know if I'll make it at all. But hell Hooky in Texas!! I gotta move my arse down yonder.

But I've never been to either these venues or cities even. And Denton...?? :confused2: What's up in Denton? Why not San Angelo or Lubbock then?

Denton is a city north of Dallas. And I will be there!

Do you know when tickets will be available for Denton (Dallas), Nic?

It looks like you can get tickets for both Orlando and Chicago on ticketmaster.com right now.

9 Sep 2005, 07:37

I'm trying to get tickets for you guys.

So far I asked for Orlando and Austin, as it seems to be the only places where more than 1 person would go ;)

Denton is a "college" town...University of North Texas...about an hour north of Dallas...

and probably only 30 minutes from DFW airport...but it is a lively little town...I've spent more than one drunken night there!!!

not sure why Hooky would be there instead of Dallas proper...but what the hell do I care...he'll be right here in Austin...

oh...and I will NOT be doing the Denton thing...since it's in the middle of the work week...it's all I can do to make Wednesday night here in Austin!!!

9 Sep 2005, 10:18

Oh, to live in the city of angels... damn it! :banghead: :\ohwell:

9 Sep 2005, 10:42

Well April, if you came to Austin, I'd be more than happy to pay your way in....

oops...is that the beer talking???

nah...

of course, it would cost you much more to get here than it would for me to get you a ticket!!! so it seems like it's not even a wash!!!

bwahahahahahaha

by the way...seems I've managed to gather up a gang of eight for the event here!!!!

9 Sep 2005, 14:12

Well I'm in Denton for one! :smoking:

Denton actually has two colleges - The University of North Texas (third largest school in the state with 30K+ students, known for it's radio/TV/film school and music programs) and Texas Women's University. If there is an Austin Jr. in Texas then Denton is it.

There are over 100,000 people here so the town isn't completely off the map, but being a thirty minute drive from either Dallas or Fort Worth we are often forgotten.

BTW, my offer of a free beer to anyone showing up is still good. To my understanding there won't be advance tickets sold, but if they go on sale I'll post it here. Hailey's always has a DJ set on Thursday nights and so far they have not really advertised for this.

And sorry to anyone in Lubbock, but Hooky has far better taste than that. :shades:

Are you for real? I mean free beer. I'll be up thee!

9 Sep 2005, 14:45

Yeah, I'll buy a fellow fan a beer. Are you seriously coming?

markwars wrote: Yeah, I'll buy a fellow fan a beer. Are you seriously coming?

My heart is going. My feet need some engine's push, but if everything will go smoothly - I'll be there. Too bad, Jeff is not going!

C'mon, Jeff, let's join us.

Actually it's a question for me where to go to - either Denton or Austin - both are equally far away from me.

9 Sep 2005, 17:45

Where is he playing in Madison? Gonna make the drive from Minneapolis for the show.

9 Sep 2005, 18:21

Spotnick where in Madison and Milwaukee his he coming too??? I might go to all three Chicago for sure, Madison then Milwaukee, dam I'll be drunk all week long, :banghead: I told myself I wouldn't drink anymore

9 Sep 2005, 20:30

i wonder if he'd be @ club anything in milwaukee or inferno @ madison? i doubt it though cause those places are kinda gothic/new wave/industrial clubs and those are the only places i know in wisconsin. though there is an awesome 24 hr. porn shop near Kenosha

i know where denton is, i just didn't know what was there. so it's dr. phil's old haunt, then.

I've never been to any of Hooky's DJ shows.

What's it like? Dance-like atomosphere?

What are some of the songs that are usually played?

11 Sep 2005, 12:19

I wonder if anyone is going to answer my questions.... :(

i went to the one at hiro after the NYC gig. some were dancing, some were sitting and enjoying themselves. he played a variety of music, as i recall. there were a few songs i didn't recognize, but a lot of dance and indie music from the 80s-now.
