Does anyone know if NewORder are going to tour Amerikkka soon? I just love Regret and Blue Monday and would love to see them within close proximity of my favorite McDonalds and Starbucks. With President Bush in office our country is so much safer than Britain who has a liberal Leader. NewOrder would be safe here. We can use Stevens tanks to patrol our borders. Can you tell me when NewOrder are going to come to America?

VERY good try there E !! ;) You got the RIGHT ALBUM there - but the wrong reason! Give it some more thought, it's a pretty credible answer actually (bearing in mind I emphasised that UK folks will get this probably better) - I'm sure you'll get it eventually! :nod:

Originally posted by Old Blue Ok, time for another wild stab in the dark!4. Movement - it's the only one that wasn't released straight away on CD.8. Ceremony - wasn't released as a single in America.

  1. Good try Blue, but Easy E has also got the correct album - just the wrong reason.... ;)

  2. Likewise - the correct choice but the wrong reason (it's actually a lot more obvious this one believe it or not!)

Number 4 Technique....was it because it was the only album of the 4 to go straight to Number 1 in the charts?

Number 6 Is it Common as muck? I thought Steve & Gillian done music fer the other 3

Number 8 Is it BLT....was that the only one not to make the Top 40?

Number 2 John Robie? although he remixed Sub-Culture it wasn't on general release (It came free with Record Mirror)

No.4. No! Think again! carefully!

No.6. Wrong choice I'm afraid.

No.8. Completely wide of the mark!

No.2. Ditto again...

Have yerself a few jars Shuglet - you might be able to clinch it then! ;)

Is John Robie responsible for the Record Mirror Mix?

Q8 - Ceremony - the only song neworder should NOT drop from the set next time out

Q8 - Ceremony: the only song without keyboards? This is the most obvious answer I can think.

WELL DONE CHRIS!!

Did you realise ah had ta get oot of bed to check this thread tonight? (Sorry - blame it on me havin' terrible problems sleeping lately - hence the late late nights - too much excitement what with the imminent arrival of our second bairn due in a week or two... :nod: )

So now you clinched that one - how about unravelling the others (especially the elusive Question Number 4!!!) ;)

Q4. Movement - last Martin Hannett production? Or the only one NOT to be released on CD when first released?

Originally posted by Chris Nash Q4. Movement - last Martin Hannett production? Or the only one NOT to be released on CD when first released?

You mention CD formats .... that's a very good try [well, it CAN qualify as a correct answer even!] but thinking a little further on those similar lines (i.e. formats) will take you to the PROPER correct answer that I'm looking for.... you're so nearly there!! ;)

Think again: Why is the answer to Q.4 "Technique"??

:cool2: :cool2:

Okay, I said that I give up but I don't. Q4: Technique was the only album released in DAT format. Am I right this time?

Hubert:

Unfair :jump: :jump: :jump: !

But the above may well be correct...

Unless the answer was minidisc?

Oh hell - I give up too - here here:

Answer to Q4: "TECHNIQUE" is the odd one out because it was never issued in the fabled FACTORY LIMITED EDITION WHITE BOX CASSETTE version.

All the other three titles were initially issued in this format.

Now that one's settled - there's still another five or six answers left to unravel..... :evil4:

Can we have a recap of the ones left unanswered please? this is getting rather confusing! but a great thread :) :clap:

Cheers mate for your comments :thumb:!

And yeah - I'll just mention again that questions 3, 4, 5, 7 & 8 have now been answered (Q4 admittedly by me - just to speed up the process really, although I woulda liked one of yer to have got that one on your own!). :nod:

These questions still await solutions!

Q1. New Order/Happy Mondays/Joy Division/Revenge Q2. Arthur Baker/Martin Hannett/Steve Osborne/John Robie (this one is so obvious as well - probably the easiest one of the lot!!) Q6. Making Out/Reportage/Clocking Off/Common As Muck Q9. Primal Scream/Flowered Up/The Charlatans/Faith No More Q10. New Order/Happy Mondays/Joy Division/ Revenge (different answer from Q1 !!)

Right then....back over to you!

Q1 - Joy Division never played the Hacienda (did Revenge?)

Martin Hannet produced NewOrder while the others did remixes. I thought someone got this right already.

0 likes

Q9 I'm going to guess that one of them has never been on the same bill as New Order, so without researching I'll say Flowered Up.

0 likes

Q2. Martin Hannett - Produced both Joy Division AND New Order - the others only did New Order stuff. (Arthur Baker didn't just remix, he co-wrote and produced 'Confusion')

Q9. Primal Scream - Bobby Gillespie actually played on stage with New Order - the others have only appeared on the same billing.

Q10. Joy Division - members of 'Happy Mondays' have appeared live with all the others...?

You're nearly there! But you've only got half of the answer!

Originally posted by Old Blue Q9 I'm going to guess that one of them has never been on the same bill as New Order, so without researching I'll say Flowered Up.

You've got the right band - Flowered Up - but the wrong reason. Why Flowered Up? Okay, here's a clue: think titles (shite - that's probably a dead giveaway now)
