BDO CHATS

there on now http://bigpond.com/chat/rooms/c8/bdo.asp

hurryay :)

Pencil in 9th June 2002, Finsbury Park Festival

Q - what is your honest opion of the cure A - i like some of them the poppier stuff........ the bass player is like looking in a mirror A - Bit unerrving...they rip off to many off my basslines... even my mother noticed!!!!!!!!

New Order also stated that the 98 Peel Sessions were probably going to be released ("we have a good relationship with Strange Fruit") and Thieves Like Us may be the next addition to the set. When asked about playing the same set every night, New Order said it was more professional and they were happier with the results. I only caught the last 5 minutes. Any other information?

I arrived too late... But "Thieves Like Us", that is really interesting and surprising...

Just as my question was posted my PC crashed! Bloody typical.

Does anyone have a text transcript of the session? Adam? Please???

i tried to copy it but cause its a live chat.... no om not typing the whole thing out

New Order will be releasing a box set in memmory of rob gretton

regret is there fav song to play live

they will not be playing world in motion in perth ummmm

the 98 peel sessions will be released

the effects Peter has on his bass is a electro-harmonics. clone theory-made in 1978

they are sick of playing blue monday

Peter learned to play bass from a book called Palmer Hughs Book Of rock and roll bass

Barny did not get dancy lessons from Bez it was ectassy

true faith is about drugs

and they like severed heads and inxs

i think thats it

I pasted the whole thing into a Word document:

the whole thing will be transcripted and will be avalible later this week on the BDO site

Soem quite interesting answers there - particularly interested to learn that they think the monotonous flogging the same 12 songs round the world is "more professional"......

Hooky would rather have Roger Lyons program Thieves Like Us before Perfect Kiss......

That's pretty funny about Hooky saying the Cure seem to have taken his bass style sometimes. Makes me wonder if they ever got around to reading the onliners' questions (one of mine was about Hooky's bass style, if you recall)

That would be an excellent idea..

By the way - grab the photo for the 23/1/02 show for the concerts page before it goes:
