What do you think was the best gig on the Technique tour? I want to try to get a recording of at least one gig that was really great. It sounds like the NEC Birmingham might be the place to start, but I'd like more feedback. THANKS!:D

The one I went to-- Shoreline Amphitheatre, Mountain View, CA. :laugh: :p Nah, I can't really help you, but the Cleveland OH (July 5, 89) one that was online recently sounded quite good.

I have several of the Technique gigs, G-Mex, SECC & NEC are good gigs, but the sound quality on these are pish poor.

There are a few good copies of the American dates floating around, my particular favourite was Irvine Meadows, Cleveland's ace an all.

Best of the lot for me by an absolute mile is Reading 89. One of the BEST gigs they've ever done.

I just read a review of the Reading gig, and it sounds ace! Do you know anyone who might have a recording they'd be willing to copy for me in a trade/purchase/whatever? THANKS SHUG! :thumb:

Reading was far and away the best of the UK performances, but there are about 20 US shows for which tapes have never surfaced, so it is difficult to gauge if there was a better one. Reading was one of the best ever gigs they did.

Birmingham, however, was rubbish. We don't know how Moscow was!

i remember that the red rocks gig was amazing--although it was my first new order gig and i was only 14 so i wasn't paying attention to the set list; i was too busy dancing! i do remember it did sound pretty incredible, though. so did PiL and the sugarcubes, the opening acts. i actually remember more about PiL's performance than i do new order's!

birmingham was my (& shugs) first ever NO show so it was not rubbish. Reading was my second, & that was quality though.

Same here, it was on my 13th birthday. Dont remember NO too much. I remember the clouds coming in and raining on them like usual. I have better memories of pil, and sugarcubes.

This took place at an amusement park's ampitheater outside of buffalo,ny. Really close to attica, ny home of the prison that houses Chapman.Also, famous for its riots.

i don't have red rocks (only the 1987 show), but i have irvine meadows, detroit, and reading. i think that's it, although i may have a few more--my CDs are still packed from my move. irvine meadows stands out in my mind at the moment as being the best recording.

Hi AgentWood! It's awesome that you got to see NO at Red Rocks - I've never actually been to a concert there, believe it or not! Maybe I will when I go back to visit my parents next year.

Are you interested in making a trade for the Red Rocks 87 gig and the Detroit gig? Or just any other NO stuff? Let me know and maybe we can work something out! Maybe I have something by another band you dig, as well. Let me know! If you want to email me, my address is video586@gmail.com. The address to which there is a link no longer exists as I am no longer a student at that college.

Thanks! :thumb:

Also - I just got the 1989 Technique gig (THANKS AGAIN) in mp3 format. I assume you want it. Should I make a CD for you?
