"Sumner drinks pernod and dances to Ricky Martin"
That's when Hooky shoulda badgered Barney to get AGE OF CONSENT back in the setlist......you agree to most things if yer pissed enough to dance to Ricky Martin
That, Shug, is bullet-proof logic

Thanks. Now I have to find the time to read it...
anyone got an NME or MM of Revenge, that shows Hooky all bloated and drinking/partying hard? it was hilarious, but i haven't seen it in like 18 years...... he probably bought up every issue in the UK and burned them.... it was NOT flattering....

I remember that article and, in fairness, Hooky and the rest of the band were quite deliberately letting it all hang out for the photographer. The whole piece did seem to indicate that, whatever their merits musically, being on the road with Revenge was a lot of (bloke-y) fun.
Unlike being on tour with New Order, natch.
I might have Uncut mag somewhere in the loft. There was about a 20 page feature on neworder from about 1999.
one clip ill never forget though was from smash hits. it had 5 facts about NO and one was that they played "thieves like us" on the show, live, and it went down the charts the following week. i think that was a first. only NO are capable of doing that:\ohwell:
I don't have any of the articles you guys are talking about but I do have some different ones I'll scan soon.
Matt Brown, Switzerland: Peter, how the fuck do you get that bass sound? PH: I'm not telling you. Fuck off.
Classic. Thanks for the clippings, everyone!
