How official do you need it to be?

New Order's management update it.

Anyone notice the "NEW DATES - OLD FRIENDS - NEW ORDER" is the same text as David had up on worldinmotion a good two months ago?

Is he also behind this new site?! (He's not management that I'm aware of ... at least, not yet!)

I didn't know, that's why I asked. the truth is that all southamericans are waiting for an official voice about these concerts in Buenos Aires, São Paulo and Santiago (1-3-5 Dec). tickets are being sold at this moment so it'd be nice to have some sort of confirmation!

And Parris Wakefield Is linked to new order on twitter. So looks Bonifide to me.

Kinda reminds me of the Pet Shop Boys artwork circa 2009.

I thought the same. I do like it, though.

It reminds me a bit of the cover for the single Love Etc (PSB), but I know it's a different design in the end.

Both bits of text were put up on the same day - 5th September...

I would guess that Dave got the press release from the management?

I don't understand how it works in South America then.

When is a concert officially 'official'?

They're playing three dates in South America, that's all I know. And you've just listed all three dates above.

How do these three dates then become 'official'? Who has to confirm them for you? :laugh:

Would be good to see a short message go up on NewOrderNow.net but they are official Almanso. I guess you want to hear it from someone official and not me!, but if it helps the band's management advised me of these SA gigs earlier on this week but BA wasn't quite confirmed then. They were expecting it to be sorted this week and if tickets are on sale then you should take that as a good sign!

The newordernow site is officially NOs and as Al said, they update it. I wouldn't read anything into other social media pages e.g.fb not being cross-matched, they probably have more pressing priorities at the moment.

I totally understand Alejo. You see the official website mentioning London gig and not South America, you get a little suspicious.

So now there it is. They last ended down here, they are coming back here as well.

I almost think that this is NOT the last time they are playing South America.

Now we stand here waiting.......... :read:

official confirmation... now I can be more relaxed :smoker:

Al, the problem here is that you never know. I know here sometimes dates are announced just to measure the expectation or to see how many tickets do they sell before officially confirm the actual show. it wouldn't have been the first time a gig is announced and then mysteriously been cancelled. hope you get the picture ;)
