There's going to be a John Peel day on the 13th October...
http://news.bbc.co.uk/1/hi/entertainment/tv_and_radio/4176158.stm
A series of gigs are being planned.
NO/JD got a big leg up from the mighty Peel when they first formed and they contributed to his 40th birthday party, so who knows, maybe the NO gigs aren't quite over for 2005...
(fingers crossed).
Spotty; is it worth asking the management- i'd be surprised if they didn't have something to say about this...?
Isn't Hooky going to be in the States doing his DJ type thing around that time???
Seems to me that would put a bit of a damper in any plans for any NO gigs around that date..

Indeed; it'll be interesting to see if management announce anything... NO really respected Peel for what he did for them and music as a whole...
just had a look...Hooky's last day in the States is scheduled for the 8th of October...which would give him enough time to get back to the UK...
so MAYBE?!?!?!?!?
That would be great but where would they play, the site says venues throughout the UK but i think a venue in Peels original home town of liverpool would be reat, not too far for the lads or myself to travel.:)

Actually, ask Mr Jarvis or Giles, because that was meant to be in April and New Order were supposed to be part of it... and doing a few dates in the UK before going to America.
But it didn't work out, so I'm quite sure you can expect them to be there, but I'll ask around... however I didn't get any news from the management recently...

Er, nothing to add to what Spotty's said. As far as I'm aware the Beeb were supposed to be doing a Peel Day back in April, New Order playing the Brixton Academy.
Er, which obviously fell through.
Damn, now i really look forward to something to happen, that would be so great... Wait and see...
There seems to be a possibility for a January gig for Manc Aid according to Manchester Online...

going back to the original thing-'john peel day'
from 1977 jp changed my musical life
whenever asked the person in the world most like to met i also said john peel(because of his dry wit as just much as the music)it never happened.but right from punk until gene he brought many these delights for me 
Hmmm...a trip to Manchester in January...
I hear the weather is LOVELY there that time of year...
reckon we could coax Liv out for this one???
And does anybody have a spare bit of floor for me to sleep on???
London in October or Manc in January?
Probably can't do January - baby no.4
due then, so I hope October is confirmed - she might let me away for that one
CONGRATS Cuana - bub no 4! May their life be filled with wisdom and joy! 
(Everything I post seems to include that baby smilie somehow - right thats it, i'm boycotting the baby smilie.....)

God willing; my wife should be 'up the duff' by then- the potentially gestating one can only benefit from some decibel shattering NO rhythms (I hope) and may yet be the youngest NO fan on Earth...
P.S. CONGRATULATIONS ON THE FORTHCOMING RELEASE- HOPE ALL GOES WELL...
Thanks for the Congrats guys - I'll pass them on to herself (& she'll give out to me for being on the net when I should be working/minding the kids/anything else
)
& Best of luck to you two digitalwalters
Hurah! It's happening...
