Just got a call from El Jarvo.

Small venue, decent turn out. They played about 7 of their own songs, which he says were shit, but according to the others they were good. They also fucked up This Is Home :laugh:

Jarvo was far more happy with them playing Tighten Up, Out Of Control, Temptation, Crystal, WFTSC & Transmission, the last two being the encore :thumb:

Look forward to seeing you mad fuckers the morra :viking:

Oh and he said something about Out Of Control being played with "pumped up synths" :D

Yes, they played all the good ones off the album (and Dynamo)

WFTSC (too many guitars, not enough bass)

Tighten Up at a million miles an hour.

Crystal.

Out Of Control / Temptation segue.

Transmish encore.

Steven was bespectacled. Jake appeared nervous about mad German bobbins infront of him.

I may not have the order exactly right but they played:

This Is Home (Steve had 'technical problems', so it took ages to start and then lasted 20 seconds before they aborted it and started again) Summer Days Sink Or Swim Shine Like The Sun WFTSC Poisonous Intent Dynamo Running Out Of Luck Tighten Up Crystal Twist Of Fate Out Of Control -> Temptation Transmission

Barney was relaxed and talkative, and seemingly not on the brink of cardiac arrest despite being 5 mins late :rolleyes:

they were having a late dinner with Dermot O'Leary (official)

also the stage set list had three tracks listed for the encore and they only played Transmission. BLT and LWTUA were the two missed songs...

loved the fact that the two new guys were in awe of Barney when Temptation was playing - they were like 'hey we're on stage with New Order'

heard from a mate (not from herte, though he did post a couple of times around the john peel day gig) that it got a bit rowdy & the bouncers had to step in - aggrssive dancing again? :nod:

transmish was dedicated to his sister as she had a jd shirt on

he also reported back on the two missing tracks from the encore on the set list

Well, I thought they were a bit shit really. But then, I don't like any of the new stuff anyways so I'm not best to judge.

Loved the New Order stuff, natch. And that's what they ended with so at least I went out on a high.

Can't believe we got the fully sequenced versions of Temptation and Out of Control (which was utterly sublime), had horrible images of them doing these as acoustic numbers. *shudder*

Their bass player dances like one of them berds in Robert Palmer's "Addicted to Love" video. Which is nice.

And Phil Cunningham basically stood in the wings all night. He looked like one of the road crew watching from the side.

All the old gang are still with 'em too - Dian Barton, Andy Liddle, Andy Robinson and Roger Lyons.

And is Barney working with Jake cos he's the only other frontman in the history of pop music who's actually shorter than him?

Mixed emotions, but a good outing nonetheless.

Had a jolly nice night at the front,, got steves autograph as they came out from the soundcheck,, "and our bernard how is he tonight?",, best left alone i think,, jog on then,, barney introduced phil and steve as post neworder and im diva,, cock up at the begining of this is home,, taken in good spirits,, sound was very well mixed and for a first gig band was excellent,love the new stuff and its good to go to a gig thats not predictable,, though tonight may be if they play the same set.yea bouncer went into the crowd a couple of times but he was chilled.

Didn't see him all night, he was hiding behind the post of post-New Order fame.

Chris referred to Roger Lyons as 'Ross Brawn's scruffier brother'...

Exceedingly so - especially during Temptation...

Out Of Control had guitar bits throughout which, IMHO, detracted from the track (apart from the very end, which is where the guitary bit is during the song, anyway)...

Tighten Up was speeded up, and (IMHO) the synths bit during the song wasn't high in the mix...

Otherwise, Al's review (above) is spot on...

Phil played synths, btw - Roger was doing the sequencer-type stuff (I presume)?

"Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah!"
