Nice Foto of Barney, Gillian, and Ian Brown.

Tom Chapman has put some really nice candid BL shots up on his Myspace, including this one of himself with Bernard, Ian Brown, and lovely Gillian Gilbert backstage at Platt Field last month.

Ah...if only Gillian would come onstage and play some guest keyboards with BL.

Jesus tonight... Bernard looks like he's had a facelift! I reckon he has... Alderley Edge living indeed.

well cool actually,

the picture you see

Very cool.

I think I saw an advert that Hooky was dj-ing at the same gig, yes?

R u sure it's not one of Gillian's sisters? Anybody here remembers that Haçienda opening night story?

Nah! He just hold his breath. :D

I just think he looks happier and less stressed out these days.

Gillian still looking good.. Steve is ageing extremely well also. All that Rainow air!

Exactly. And Bernard's earned his place in Alderley Edge, and he is still recording, releasing, and touring to support new music. He looks good.

Gillian looks great too, I always liked her with shorter hair. I've never met her, but she always gives me the impression that she is a really nice, sweet, down to earth person. Steve does the same, so they are a good couple!

Since Barney, Gillian, and Steve are all still friends, they should record together! It'd be cool if Gillian played Keyboards on the next BL album. Even if she didn't tour with the band, it'd be cool to hear her work.

Hopefully it wont be too long until the next Other Two album sees the light of day. Would it work if Barney did a guest vocal on it?

It would be very nice if Hooky could stop with the idea of cashing in to buy a Ferrari to Jack and join the band again

Yes all 4 of them on a record again (or a stage for that matter)!! Even Better!!!

ugh! Barney doesn't even look like himself . Gillian looks great.

?? I don't understand what you mean by that though...I know he's older than he was before (of course)..but I still recognise him in the pic.

I'm suspecting a little plastic surgery.

I would have no idea anyway...but he's still making music, and the little bonus is that he's looking good (in that pic and some other pics of BL that I've seen). So I'm happy. :)

I'm suspecting a few pints of cider.

very well could be true, the more i look at it.

Maybe more botox than plastic surgery - that can stretch your face out

Are you guys with the plastic surgery questions serious? Barney is grinning, it tightens up the face muscles and smooths the face, he looks exactly the same as he always does.

Seriously, do you think Barney is actually the type of person who would have a facelift?

Yes.

The personal bias that members of this board have against Bernard Sumner baffles me.

I don't really know and I don't really care. I admit that he seems to look happier and slightly more relaxed than when he was in NO (in the pics at least). But that might be because he's probably not fighting with anyone, and is presumably content with whatever he does---hence it shows up as him smiling in these types of pics more sincerely.

I saw and chatted to Barney a couple of weeks ago in Alderley Edge - he hasn't done anything to his face - he just looks and sounds very relaxed, even more so now as he is on his hols!

Sorry, I thought this was New Order On Line, clearly its Closer Magazine Dot Com.:)

I can't see the photo but personally I don't care if Bernard has had anything done to his face or not. He's a great singer/musician full stop. That is all that matters.
