Hey, I just got a question to get my facts straight.
I remember a few years ago, 1997 I think, I went to see Monaco at a club in Washington DC. For their encore, I was pleasently surprised when they performed "failures" with hooky singing the vocals. Did he actually sing this song and maybe others during the JD years? I asked around, and I've been getting conflicting explainations. Maybe someone can here can give me the real facts.
Well, I wasn't aware of JD when they were still around (I'm a miserable old git, but not that old), but from my knowledge only Ian sang, with Hooky providing the occasional backing vox. Anyone there with the right info (must be older than me, though)?

Come on George, you know people over 75 don't usually operate computers.
Apart from live backing vocals and those bits in Interzone, I think it was all Ian as far as vocals go.

Who said I operate computers? It's my 18 month old son who does all the keyboard work, I just flesh out ideas (I still live in the b&w TV era...)!
I know Ian was the main guy, but when I heard peter hook singing failure, It sounded just like how it sound on substance. So I kinda figured Peter may have sang an occasional song like when he did dreams never ends.
