New Order Spotting

Met Hooky yesterday at Heathrow Airport on his way to Japan.

I think i will probably be the only one to admit this but Blue Monday was on that documentary about the Animal Farm 'porn' movie late last night on channel 4.

There, done it.

PS

FFS I hope the wife doesn't read this post!

you're okay - colin has actually started a thread about it on the dark side of the forum

Turn your eyes from me

Starbucks, Clapham (In fact, second time I've heard NO there, yum).

"Age of Consent" on this trailer for the new Kirsten Dunst film:

Marie Antoinette

World in Motion at my pub, video. I was a bit trashed when it played and pointed it out to my friend/flatmate that it's their worst song. ;P

I dunno how u would rock out to that track, i think he just wanted to sound cool. Loves new order though

Sounds a lot cooler than a former music teacher of yours!!

I realised that the exit/intro music at each set of adverts sounded very familiar - either an instrumental section from RockTheShack, or some cheep imatation from U2!. Texted around a couple of other NOOLers in Dubland & MYOB was able to put me out of my misery - its RockTheShack! On TG4! All afternoon - the program lasts around 4 hours! (like a Grandstand for Irish sports, but with adverts)

Prob gave TG4 an instrumental mix of the track-Rock The Shack was recorded at Pulse Studios in Dublin and Rob Kirwan the engineer prob did the instrumental edit.

prolly been said before, but just heard new order on the simpsons - blt. the one set in the future where nelson has got the 2 twins up the spout

In Spain for the last week, got in the lift to hear lyrics I recognised .... 30 secs to realise it was some godawful cover of BLT. Went back down in the lift and up again just to listen to how bad it was.

I've heard the bloody awful Kylie mix of Blue Monday in clubs here in Guangzhou, China a few times; I have a mate who is a DJ in another bar downtown and plays the real Blue Monday for me whenever I walk in though. Can still remember hearing a great remix of Crystal on my very first night out here! One of the bars in downtown Guangzhou (Canton) has the 24HRPP soundtrack in the jukebox, which I only discovered during Thursday Happy Hour last week. Found a great authentic Ian Curtis poster in a market here last year; bargained them down to Y20, which is like one pound 25p I think. God knows how it got here; it was pretty old but in great condition. Finally, we stage Indie nights in the bar that I'm a part-owner of and plenty of New Order/J.D. gets played then. But as I'm leaving China soon someone else is going to have to take up the task of "educating the locals"! Joy Division do seem to have influenced a lot of bands on the Beijing punk/underground scene though, but thats all the way at the other end of the country...

my family's from Guangzhou China.. pretty cool to hear about the JD info. there. It was also cool to see the Ceremony video that was filmed in China on the Item DVD. I was born in HK when it belonged to the British. Which made me proud to say that I was a Brit for a bit until my family moved to the US, and now we're US citizens.

Anyways.. on biz travel in Simi Valley, CA today and heard BLT playing as background music at Burbank Airport as I was trudging to the car rental... driving to work from there, someone on Kiss FM requested New Order and they played Blue Monday.

That's cool

a busker came on to a london underground tube i was on last week and played True Faith! its the first time ive ever heard a busker playing NO. I gave him a pound for his troubles:)

What instrument did the busker have? I saw WFTSC in the pub. And my flatmate has some live song by RHCP and they opened the song with the Transmission intro.

just a guitar - you could say he was singing an 'accoustic' version of the song...

Saw a lad in Morrisons with a NewOrder T-Shirt on last week. Big fucking deal your thinking right? He was only about 6! Wanted to take a picture of him on my phone,but didn`t fancy being locked up! Fair play to the little lad.

heard Regret on London's XFM AT 1pm yesterday!

Heard "Blue monday" on Music Farm an italian trash singers reality show.

One of the guys in our office was doing the World in Motion rap the other day. Thought you'd all like to know. I also heard them on the radio as well.

I think that this nugget of info was hitherto overlooked.

Are you sure that he was gling to Japan, if he passed through the xray sideways he may be going to Bang Cock

Think it was China actually!

I do know that he bumped into Brian Whittaker at the airport as well.

The Orgy cover of Blue Monday was used during the showing of the football ladders a few times on sports tonight, tonight. Aussie viewers.

Here To Stay was played in the pub again, second time I've seen it in there.

jetstream in a fast-food restaurant... all is said.

Just heard Blue Monday on tonight's edition of 'A Question of Sport'.

3 times in the pub in like 3 hours yesterday [if you count LWTUA] also played WiM and BM.

heard regret in a shopping centre in enniskillen northern ireland last thursday.

When I went to movies coiple weeks ago, I heard age of consent on the theaters speaker radio.

Trinny and Susanah or whatever they're programs called was on in the background some months ago and crystal was being played as incidental music (- vocals)
