New Order to replace Hook

with 80's slap faced jazz Funkateer and Level 42er Mark King.

King was reportedly delighted at being asked to join after the recent departure of DJ Peter "Hook" Hooky.

"I'm really looking forward to using this famous thumb of mine on hits such as Blue Monday, Regret and Get the message" the absolute funker was quoted as saying.

The band are also rumoured to be reworking their Joy Division hit "Atmosphere" into a more slap bass driven vehicle to show off their new basists talents.

DJ Peter Hook was unavailable for comment but we reckon give his myspace half an hour and they'll be somert on there.

Its not April 1st buddy

Should be good

If that was to happen, I'd need headphones (the noise cancelling kind) to drown out Mark King... :dead:

...It must be true then!

How do we know that this is true, is it realiable sources or bunch of bull crap.

Isn't he related to you?

Why would NO replace Hooky with anyone?

They did perfectly well without him on Republic.

hilarious.

Can they get that geeky keyboard dude from the same group to replace Phil while they're at it.Thanks

MONACO REFORM SHELVED as NEW NEW ORDER WAR with LEVEL 42 gathers momentum.

Ex New Order Basser DJ Peter "Hooky" Hook has shocked everyone in rockdom by joining 80's Pop Funk Ups Level 42.

Ironically not revealing anything on his myspace site... Captain Hook declared an appreciation for "the 42" that had been growing for quite some time and wasn't in any way a reaction to Slap faced Les Dawson-a-like Mark King's decision to join his old bandmates.

DJ Hooky goes on to say "They're a bit like ACR but shit... a bit softer with a toasty funk underside. I reckon my bone breakin bass riffs will sheath their wine bar rhythms and as I remember "Something about you" was a massive Hac tune back in the day."

bored?

you have way too much time on your hands. pretty pathetic really.

Lighten up Jack, only a bit of fun.

yeah, that's right jack! LIGHTEN up!

don't blame anyone!

"Do unto others as you would have others do unto you"

can you believe it, your dad's an ex-NEW ORDER and ex-JOY DIVISION.

When I see just how far over people's (read as seppos mainly) heads some things go on here....I really have to wonder what the same droids actually make of New Order.

Na na na na-na-na!

"Last weekend I was grilling steaks and I burned them to sh!t and I said "hey, great weather!".

Be interested to hear Bernard and Mark King doing a slap bass duet on a new version of Confusion. (That was Bernard on slap bass duties on Confusion in the Pumped Full of Drugs video, right?)
