Who's NOT going Bruss/Paris out of principle ? — Forum Archive

5 Sep 2011, 12:40

ME... Was happy to spend the $ on Hookys roadshow (still looking forward to The Lowry) & was equally pleased with the 3 Bad Loot shows i saw but i cannot get my head around this version of Bad Loot with Gillian. Its not New Order & i hope Hooky prevents them from from using the name, because 2 will become 4 etc.. Theres always some dying Manc twat around who 'needs' a benefit.

Me...im more chuffed that the original Inspiral Carpets have reformed.. Mind..it does still tug at the heart strings as to what to do :lol:

I'm not going out of principle as well, I hope they're not allowed to use the name, but at the same time I want them to reach an agreement and maybe play alongside Hooky later on (I know, I know..).

5 Sep 2011, 15:27

I'm not going due to unemployment/lack of passport/two young kids

5 Sep 2011, 18:38

I think it's ridiculous for people who have gone to Hooky's recent projects to start talking trash about this project with the whole rest of the band. I not only hope they add more shows, I hope they release another album. Hooky needs to pull it together and join... or get over it.

Erm, so this "principle" will allow you to pay to watch Hooky tour entire Joy Division albums by himself (as the sole original member) and watch him front the "FAC51 Hacienda" brand by himself (despite it being owned by all 4 of them, AHW & Rob G back in the day) but you won't go and see three members of the original line-up plus Phil Cunningham play two gigs under the name "New Order" in aid of a guy who is seriously ill?

'kin ell. Hardcore (I think).

Don't get me wrong, Hooky's more than entitled to do what he wants to do but let's not start applying one set of principles to some band members without remembering everything else that's gone on over the past few years. I think as far as uses of the "New Order" name goes this is a pretty good one and hope they raise enough to keep their mate comfortable. The promos that guy made for New Order defined their public image over the 80s/90s and a couple of them are master-classes in the art of truly original pop music videos.

Harsh.

ME-not seeing what the big deal is. At least they're playing out again.

Also, broke and American (same thing, really).

I posted earlier that, by chance or design, Hookys been put in an invidious position. If he objects to this then hes the twat who tried to stop a good cause. Equally, the name Bad Loo wouldnt have brought in the same amount of charity Euros.

What a fucking mess.

Not going to NO out of principle but watching Hooky's tribute act?? Beyond my comprehension. But then so are flat earth society members. There's a Monty Python sketch in this thread just waiting to be written.

Ironically I could have gone if I was still unemployed after being made redundant, but I misjudged the effort I needed to put in to interviews to look like I actually wanted the post and managed to get offered a frikin job...... Arse.

I'm not going out of Principle.

I'm going out of the Eurostar Terminal at St Pancras. :nod:

Hope this, etc.

6 Sep 2011, 03:07

I'd love to go. Unfortunately i can't afford it. Also tickets are £100 each! I doubt they'll only play these two gigs. They will surely play the uk.

Do ... what?

£100 fcuking notes per ticket?

Where does it say that?

EDIT: I guess you're talking about the train tickets which are, indeed, trés pricy. The Paris gig is only 45 Yoyos though.

6 Sep 2011, 03:25

and the Brussels one is even cheaper at €42 :)

No cash bars there though - everthing in there is cashless, from what I remember?

You have to queue for beer tokens, and then for beer.

Swings and roundabouts.

6 Sep 2011, 04:46

Sorry, my mistake, must have been a dodgy ticket site or something! Still can't afford it!

I'm not going and I wouldn't have gone to Hooky's thing either. I'm going to switch off and remember them the way they were. It'd been enjoyble, thanks for the memories.

A big soap opera named New Order, isn't it?

6 Sep 2011, 05:48

If I cannae make it, it definitely won't be because of any principles. It'll be because I'm already on holiday in Gran Canaria at the end of the month.

If I can get the holidays aff work and one more big win from Paddy Power I'll be at both hopefully, John and Lorraine are also contemplating this, so three of the Corby Order should be about.

It'd be fookin rude not to :viking:

6 Sep 2011, 05:49

Bastards.

Just realised I'll have to change my gig avatar if i do make em :laugh:

6 Sep 2011, 06:58

Daft idea for a thread really - how pompous to boycott a band on the basis that they dare to carry on after one member voluntarily leaves the band. Don't get me wrong, it would be great to have a full reunion. But wow.

Your principles are pretty selective if you have no issue with The Light's work AND you object with the rest of NO using their name to help a very sick mate out by raising money for him.

Yeah, you show 'em. The bastards.

Not going as I will have already seen Re: Order a few days before, and it'll all end up being a bit like watching a Blue Sq Premier game after the World Cup final... :nod: :lol:
