Well, this is a rip-off from the french forum, let's start a New Order trivia thread.
If you answer the question correctly, you may ask a question, etc.
I will start with a first question, not too difficult, but I hope you will find time to bring real challenges...
What are Steve and Gillian's children's names?
Have fun.

Have I got to give ye's even more clues@? the answer is in the previous clue ya daft bastards!
And YES I have been drinking:D
Well as a half winner, here's a easy 'un....
What was the name of the late 80's / early 90's "yoof" TV program, that New Order composed the theme music for?
Close but no cigar...."Making Out" was around that time....the proggy I'm refering to was one of those current affairs programs that was aimed at 15 to 21 year old that covered "issues that were affecting the kids of today" in 30 second pieces to camera, with zany graphics going accross the screen....
Reportage is of course correct, I seem to remember it pronounced "Report-arge" - though that might be something to do with the posh accent of the presenter Madge De Vine!

Thanks Al, I had a mental block and was just about to throw myself out of the window!

Okay then, my turn...
The Order played but a handful of gigs in the entire nineties, but in three of these they actually had to play 2nd fiddle to other acts.
Name the three main acts they 'supported' in the 90's.
(Note: at one festival they were top-billing but ended up going on BEFORE an other act (and I'm not referring to the Temptation gigs with Underworld here..).
I remember now, the Dublin gig you posted the pictures of!! They came on before Hothouse Flowers. Can't remember why....
Correct. That's two. The quote I heard was, "once the Hothouse Flowers go on stage, you can't get 'em off" so the Order went on before them, despite the fact they were headlining. Obviously, we were unaware of this so were still drinking at the bar at the back of the Point (it's a bloody huge venue) when we heard the words, "Hello we're New Order and we're from Manchester". Cue: mad dash for the front. There were escalators going to/from the bar and I just remember loads of us dashing the wrong way down the 'up' escalator in a mad panic.. .
Was the third something bonkers from the Montreux Jazz Festival in '93?????
From memory, Robert Plant was lurking in the NewOrderStory documentary segment shot at Montruex, so my punt is for Mr. Plant.....

Correct. They supported Robert Plant at the Montreaux Jazz Festival.
S'pose it's down to either of the Blueys to post the next question?
Brian Hibbard was once a member of acapella group The Flying Pickets , this very same guy played in the Making Out series, which New Order wrote the music for.
Once confirmed, I've got a question :p
And they also did a song called "Time After Time", a song of same name was later recorded by The Beloved, who had supported New Order twice in 1985.
Next question......
Barney commented at Paris that they hadn't played "She's Lost Control" in France since Les Bains Douches in 1978(sic). He wasn't right, as they had played it at Orleans Salle du Baron in 1985.
Which New Order song besides Brutal made its live debut in Paris though ?

Take a bow N21 (felicitations), and then ask a question.
Arsene.....hold yer horses, mate!!!!
LOL !
OK :) A difficult one :p
What is the answer to the sixth question from the very same thread on the french forum ?
Oi Old Blue, I was right as well !!!!!
So here's my question......

Originally posted by Mark McKellar-Harding could the answer also be Transmission (2001)? - out of interest, not pedanticism??
Nope !
I'll give you a clue - the Tours and Concerts section of this site is wrong with regard to this track.....
Originally posted by N21 Digital ? :p
Antoine was probably right with this one, wasn't he? (I don't know the tracklisting of 'Les Bains douches' ...)
No, that was a Joy Division song. The song concerned is definitely a New Order song and contained no input from Ian Curtis.
Originally posted by Arsene Revault No, that was a Joy Division song. The song concerned is definitely a New Order song and contained no input from Ian Curtis.
Do you mean in Paris during the Get Ready tour?

No. You are getting warmer :)

Would be nice to know THAT.
I'd like it to be accurate!!
Anyways, this is a question for Mr Jarvis I think ;)
Après une brève recherche..
13 MAY 81 Palais Des Arts - Paris, France 45 Instrumental (unknown?), Procession, Ceremony, Doubts Even Here, Truth, Dreams Never End, ICB, Senses, Denial, In A Lonely Place
Ça serait fort probablement la première chanson, et elle est pas notée vu que personne sait c'est quoi.
Sinon, il y a une erreur dans la section, car aucune chanson semble avoir été interprétée pour la première fois à Paris, sauf Brutal...

Hum, wrong language.
I meant, this is probably the first song, which nobody knows what it is...
Hang on there dude !! The "first" song at the Paris show way back in 81 isn't really a song, it's the band jamming because the synths have failed at the start of the scheduled first song, "Procession". I have a really good recording of this show.
The answer is "The Village" at Le Palace in '82. It was not played at Leuven three nights before as far as I know. That book "An Ideal For Living" (ok, we know it's written by a dufus and is wrong nearly everywhere) says that The Village made its debut at Le Palace 4/17/82.
OI OI - what's goin on ere then?
No-one answered both parts of my question - so all the above are null and void
Is he Scottish? Bit of a Gypsy?........Medicine Hotpants?
Yes ye's got JIMMY hendrix - but nowhere did I see anyone answer VOODOO CHILE......who said New Order fans were clever......useless gets!
