Originally posted by Huntsman AJ - are you as frustrated with NO as I am? - how many live gigs have they done? (answer: about 2 million) and out of that lot, how come we have to suffer 'Academy', 'PDF', a couple of ropey bootlegs' Taras' and '316'. Now I'm not saying these are bad, but can you even imagine the gigs we could be watching?I feel a bit cheated - and surely NO are losing money from the likes of us by not releasing more gear. After all, NO are an excellent live band - even when they play poor.

Completley in 100% agreement with you there ,Huntsman.Look at how many bloody videos third rate piss poor moneygrabbing scumbags such as ************ have brought out. (**insert any band / artist you dispise.)

Relief! I had roped in a couple friends who kinda like neworder ("blue monday was good") and had a large tv with surround sound. it turns out his cables are fucked from cat fancy and the vids not fucked after all. i woke up this morning to Face-Up and Barney asking the audience to cheer louder due to the cost of guitar pics. Is the sound guy wearing a Smiths shirt? what difference does it make? hand in glove?

Am I alone in thinking that, apart from the ridiculous shots/effects on 'Academy', that it's REALLY annoying to have an interview stuck in the middle of the only song Hooky sings?

Why not put it between, say, 'Love Vigilantes' and 'Confusion'? Or a proper interview at the end of the gig???

That's why Mike Mansfield Productions suck big time. Very 80's production.Trying to make it too glossy like a bloody Micheal Jackson video.

Just watched Academy, hadn't seen it from a long time.

The sound is amazing and The Perfect Kiss is really huge.

But, as I said, those effects are sickening.

Have you noticed that, during BLT, there's images that doesn't come from that song : Barney has a guitar, then he hasn't, then he has... At some time, he even has the bass guitar from Confusion !

What's the fucking point of a live tape if the images are edits from different songs like a promo video ?

Well, luckily, it's only during BLT I think but even that is too much.

Not in my corner of the woods, I can tell ya that much! I tried to get Tara Shevchenko (forgive me, but I'd love to have some live document of NO post-JD, pre-Blue Monday) last summer from a certain chain store that shall remain nameless, and they couldn't get it, so I have no hopes of even trying for PFD
