All will be complemented by, and available from, a pop up Hacienda area on the specially created high street at the festival on Sunday 15th August.

That doesnt surprise me, and I daresay I speak for most of the board when i say that.

Anyway, during this performance of seminal post punk album, where in the holy name of fuck are the choir going to fit in?

Well you are welcome to buy a ticket or a cd and find out.

You must be fucking joking!

I would say I've seen few things more embarrassing than this, but truth be told, I've lost count of the shameless cash ins that I see on this board on a regular basis.

Someone record it and put it online for free for fuck's sake. I won't be there to do it unfortunately - I have a hair washing appointment.

Nice way to benefit the artists involved there.

Some people seem to think it's OK to steal the music, unfortunately some of these people are educating the future generation.

And Id bet an English fiver that most of the naysayers will still listen to a copy if they can.

And then say it was shit.

I dont know where all the animosity comes from. I dont like everything this band has done so I listen to what I do like. And when I was a poor student I couldnt afford to see New Order but I didnt bitch about them not considering the skint fans.

The people moaning on here would be the first to criticise if the band were just lazing around...

I would always try to listen to something before buying it, there should be somewhere where we could listen to a minute or so of the track to allow us to decide whether we should buy or not, considering the economic climate at the moment, gone are the days where I would buy something just because it's New Order related, and despite what some may think, there's a few tracks I don't like and I don't like everything Hooky has done.

Thats why God created itunes. Even amazon have started doing mp3 downloads where you can preview it first.

I wouldn't be taking this stance if it wasn't for the fact he's charging £600 for a 4 track EP of recordings and a book many of us on here already have.

I'm all for championing the artist - but when those same artists take liberties.....

And even some artists even send out a track from their upcoming album to fans as a preview (usually on their mailing list) to encourage them to buy it. If you don't like it and don't feel like buying the album, oh well, and if you liked the song and get excited about the album and eventually buy it...that's a nice thing.

(Sorry for being off-topic.)

Steve Jobs will love you for that

I'd love it to be on iTunes, but I doubt Hooky would.

Why? Because the music would be accessible to the masses?

Correct. Who'd stump up the 600 quid for the boxset then?

Who will stump it up anyway?

I bet Bernards got his eye on a copy.

The shirt looks lovely.

No, to put it bluntly anything Mr Sumner and Mr Hook have done since 2006 has been fookin wank! I can understand them milking the cash cow. But it has been poor. Very poor!! I love New Order/Joy Division - imo the best music group Britain has ever produced. It's just embarrassing the shite they are releasing now

Cant agree - WFTSC is a decent album - and in Who's Joe - one of my favourite tracks up with Sunrise and Crystal. The Bad Lieutenant album is also ok- not brilliant but with 4/5 really good tracks. Much better than most toss out there anyway.

I dont think people mind cashing in as long as its the right sort of cashing in. I.E. they can afford it.

Correct, I'm curious how much the Goodwood live CD will be sold for.

These "sandbag" live releases are normally £15 for a CD/double CD...which is about right for a mixing desk quality recording (should you want one).

Pixies live cds from sandbag

I don't mind the live CD on the night thing too much, they're at least affordable and a good way for bands to increase revenue. The fans get a memento, the bands get most of the cash directly, depending on their deal of course. Those with 360 deals get less no doubt.

I think they have churned out plenty of rubbish but I really like "Sink or Swim". That T-Shirt looks cool but the expressions "limited edition & Signed" are wearing thin, hopefully unlike the T shirt.

Next shirt should be in a drab blue, hell at this rate make it in some off beat colors like maroon.
