Have I got to give ye's even more clues@? the answer is in the previous clue ya daft bastards!

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!

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?
