Does anyone know what Steve is using to play his synth parts on BLT, TPK, and BM now? He isn't using the big Kurzweill synth anymore?
Also, did anyone notice that during TPK at these gigs, the bass synth solo was plaed by Tom Chapman on the bass guitar and not by Steve on this synth? Only thing about these gigs that I didn't like....

IMHO they would be better off using a bass synth on BM as well.
Zachery Starkey"]Speaking of which, I agree with everyone NO sound so much better with Steve playing an acoustic drum kit again.
Looking forward to listening True Faith original version again 
This new version really is something special. I love the way they have rebuilt it from the Peel Version and LP Mix, and when I listen to it, I can easily hear where you could merge into EGG, then OOC, then Temptation in a 20 minute mash. That'd knock your socks off.
Someone tell the band to get a good live recording of it and release it to iTunes for all to enjoy.
That should be a no-brainer you'd think...
Either that or a new iTunes Originals type of release. I'm sure Steve's farm studio is up to the task.
*end of wishful thinking*
Have any decent audience audio recordings turned up yet?

Nice work matey.
Good job.
Not sure why "5 8 6" didn't get much remix/remake action over the last 3 decades. "5 8 6" is in many ways maybe their best potential acid/house remix.
They're only playing to piss Hooky off. Everyone knows that. 
Oh, and good work, Jed. 
Just listened to PLC for the first time in years. I'd love to see them dust off Ecstasy and play it live again. It's another song that having Gillian play live synths on really adds another dimension. Plus it gives them an instrumental to play mid-gig.

It's to do with the structure of the song Ecstacy. Five bars followed by eight bars followed by six bars.
That's a really great video. Thanks for putting it up. Also, it's great to see how big the visuals work with the band. It really elevates New Order's game, especially on the festival circuit. IMO, this should have happened a long, long time ago, especially when you think about all the aesthetics and iconic images that New Order has.

As I know they never played it live indeed

Other than We All Stand, that's the PC&L track I'd least like to hear live.

I want to hear them tackle Everything's Gone Green, now!
So happy to see Steve playing an acoustic drum kit again.
I totally agree! Brilliant! One of the very best!
I'd like to hear/see them playing "Everything's Gone Green" live again, as they did in a couple of gigs in 2005. It would be great.

Next to 586 and Age of Consent, Ecstasy is my favorite song on PCL. Brilliant track.

No mention of Leave Me Alone? An absolute classic in my opinion.

Glad somebody agrees with me. 
I also love Ecstasy (the song). Although it is quite prescient as it does sound like an acid house track.
"Ecstasy" is a fantastic track with a fookin' brilliant acoustic drum riff. But my opinion is suspect beacause "PC&L" is one of my favorite N.O. albuns too.
