No, Nick. It's for not releasing a song instead.
They're all studio jokes 
There's a release date for the EP, the album will follow shortly afterwards and there are gigs planned.
I know it's not as soon as people would like, but the whole lot is sorted.
Being released on Hacienda records.
At the risk of seeming rather "Darkman" about it all, I've been asked to keep my gob shut about the details.

Chris,
Is this band to be called New Order?

Jack,
Tell us when your daddy and Barney will be sharing a drink and stepping outside again

Well you've been the outlet of news re: Freebass on at least ten occasions. Let's hope #11 is correct, give or take a couple of months.
I personally am really fucking bored with the waiting and the diminishing circus that has surrounded Freebass for the last four years.
Quit talking, and start chalking.

To quote TMWRNJ, "It's like picadilly Circus this".

I didn't give any details Jack, leaving that up to you 
Blah blah blah blah Freebass blah blah EP blah blah coming soon, etc. blah blah blah!
PUT UP OR SHUT UP. THE FANS HAVE LOST INTEREST.

C'mon, Chris. Don't you get tired of all the hemming and hawing? I'm just as connected to the band as you are, and I'm certainly tired of all the cloak and dagger bullsh*t. Hooky's had FOUR YEARS to release something - even a single - and the best we get is a track on MySpace with a loop of his voice over it, or supposedly rejected songs. It's time to LET IT GO. It's never going to live up to anyone's expectations now, is it?
Bad Lieutenant is boring.
Waiting around for Freebass is boring.
Barney and Hooky spatting is BORING.
Oh well, maybe the new Other Two album will be good. *sigh*
(...and don't you dare question whether I'm a true "fan" or not, considering the amount of work that was put into Recycle. Bruce and myself were the only two who stepped up to the plate.)

It is all getting to be a bit of a joke.
Revenge had played a ton of gigs within 6 months of forming!
Throw us a frickin bone over here will ya.....

Most of us are
Hooky's had FOUR YEARS to release something - even a single - and the best we get is a track on MySpace with a loop of his voice over it, or supposedly rejected songs.
Plus DJ sets, live appearances, a book, a signing tour, an Acid House compilation album, a new Manchester club, offers to promote new bands, appearances with other bands for charity events, a new EP, album and gigs on the way, etc.

Depends on the expectations and the end result 
Bad Lieutenant is boring.
Agreed.
Waiting around for Freebass is boring.
Frustrating maybe, but boring?
Barney and Hooky spatting is BORING.
Again, frustrating as well as getting boring.
Oh well, maybe the new Other Two album will be good. *sigh*
Certainly hope so.

Wasn't questioning your dedication, just that some people are more willing to persevere with the idea that something good might actually be released by ex-New Order members in 2010.
Let's hope so, whether it's Barney, Hooky, Steve and Gillian or Phil.

I'm glad you could see I was only half serious.
Of course I'm anxious to hear what he'll do, but between all the "hurry up and wait" surrounding Freebass, and the "maybe it exists and maybe it doesn't" surrounding the JD rehearsal tapes and Pictures In My Mind, these boards have gotten a bit frustrating!
Chris Nash wrote: New Order have always been frustrating mate. Maybe that's why we all grudgingly love them!
True, but they still gave us an album every 18 months and a bunch of singles in between!
It's perfect to release a companion to "24 hour party people" at this point. We've got an absent forever album, a new band covering the old one, and a new label.

I seriously doubt Hooky will be having a drink with anyone, unless it's non alcoholic of course. try to keep up mate.
Just saw this bit from an NME online article about Primal Scream starting to work on a new album. (This bit isn't about Primal Scream, though.)
"Currently working on the finishing touches to the long-awaited Freebass album, with New Order's Peter Hook and former Smiths bassist Andy Rourke, Mani revealed how they were "99-percent done".
"We've got like one more week left and then we're going to draw a line under it," he explained. "You're never gonna be 100-percent happy with anything you do, I never am and I never will be, so it'll be nice to finish things off and then get out and start playing the tunes."
Already confirmed for Japan's Fuji Rock and Reading festival, the as-yet-to-be titled album will be preceded by an EP 'When Two Worlds Collide', which will be released shortly. "
(I first was confused when the article mentioned Fuji Rock and Reading, and I re-read it, looked at the title of the EP, and realised that this part was about Freebass!)

Obviously got removed from the NME article...
