Oft forgotten, but a major player in the band's history. Does anyone know what she looked like, what happened to her after she finally accepted Ian's death (DC says she continued calling his number a month after he had died) etc etc ?
Annik Honore

I had a long conversation with one of the main players in that whole Annik H. story back in 1990 and though I have never to this day repeated what I was told, I can tell you that there are a number of discrepancies in "Touching From a Distance" in relation to Annik Honore & her relationship with Mr Curtis. She was by all accounts quite a glamourous woman who was in the words of one friend "mental" - I think this is the wrong arena for this depth of discussion so I'll leave it there I think...

go on,dish some dirt
good question. i suspect she's faded into obscurity married with a kid...god, i hope she doesn't write anything stupid like a tell-all book on ian curtis that's sensational. i can't tell you how cheesy those books are.
Most mysterious of all is why she chose to name herself after an anagram of "Nine, Akron OH."
Eerie.

I'm sure it was meant the right way, but it just came across as "I'm privy to all this classified information because I'm part of the inner sanctum, so you lot can all pay me some respect". People earn my respect.

I don't know what's scarier, the fact that you took the time to make that anagram or that I live in Akron and my birthday is in the ninth month, September, my address begins with the number nine, and the day that Ian Curtis died was the eighteenth, which is 2 times 9!!!! I'm going home to destroy my Iggy Pop records and buy a lot of garlic and wolfsbane.

Yeah I know, but I asked a perfectly civil and sensible relevant question, and got back this "well I do know, but I'm not going to tell you" answer. What was the point in even replying other than to be smug and condescending ?

I think JS went part of the way to answering your question Mr. Puss so in that sense his post was worthwhile. Some confidences aren't to be betrayed however and I think you've got to respect that.
Baggy has a point though - why does he always end his posts with a statement reminding everyone how much more knowledgable he is than everyone else? It's the 'I could go on..' bit which is so 'kin irritating...
I couldn't give a fuck what anyone thinks of me to be honest and I'm sorry that I even went as far as I did in responding to that subject in the first place - I am always going to piss someone off because I appear to know a bit more than certain others about this bands history but don't think for one minute that I'm about to spew all that information on some fansite where certain individuals appear to struggle with their own insecurities and project their own problems on me.

Thats probably a good job
I find it ironic but somewhat predictable that it's the kids who know fuck all that always try to start it with me.
I just checked the biogs of some of the usual suspects and guess what - I came up with absolutely nothing of any interest whatsoever...
