I feel a series of memoirs to rival Spike Milligan's war books are in the offing. Surely Revenge, Monaco & Freebass volumes to follow. In fact the names of Milligan's books could be ripped off. "Ian Curtis: My Part in his Downfall", "Shaun Ryder: His Part in my Downfall" "Where has all the money gone?" "Goodbye Sumner"

I feel I have to disagree with this glamourised, paparazzi style, Daily Mail-esque forum entry, on behalf of Hooky.

I'm the person in the audience who actually asked the question of him, would there be a New Order book in the pipeline after the Joy Division book (if he goes ahead with this). At no point in his answer to me, did he actually state that there WOULD be a New Order book from him.

Hooky was in good spirits last night in Oxford though, and he was a pleasure to talk to - I wish him every success with whatever book(s) he decides to write.

This is the same Peter Hook that, when asked by Muffy at one of G-Man's DJ nights, if he thought "Low-Life" had its A and B sides the wrong way around ...

... answered "Yes".

Then paused, asked, "Which one's Low-Life again?"

That Peter Hook? :lol:
