Do threads automatically get deleted after x amount of time or did a moderator delete the "And yet another round of new order spotting" thread?
I spotted that the documentary film, Mistaken For Strangers (about The National on tour) is on Film Four in the UK late tonight. If I remember correctly someone spotted the band listening to AOC on the trailer below - at around 1.28 - when the film came out last year. So I was going to respond to that post. But I can't find the post or the thread...
I've no idea where it is actually. I've done a search/browse and only found the Facebook spotting one. Are you sure there ever was one on the new forum?
I'm pretty sure I'm the only mod bothering to keep an eye on here at the moment and all I remove is the Nike/Passport spam generated by the bots.
At any rate, congrats on starting the "new" one.
Yeah, I couldn't find it when I wanted to post that my office massage chair pulses to the exact beat of Blue Monday

I'm positive. The AOC spot mentioned above was within the last year, as the film came out in 2013. I couldn't be more positive.
sittin in a coffee shop, acoustic/"folky" cover of Love Vigs comes on think Gary Jules/Mad World treatment but a little less uh, resigned
Anyone seen the current Denzel Washington flick The Equalizer?
I was quite surprised to hear New Dawn Fades blasting out in one of the final scenes of the movie. Alas it's the Moby version not JD.
The film takes itself very seriously but it kicks ass if you like that vigilante stuff (and funnily enough also stars Chloe Grace Moretz from Kick Ass - another vigilante film, albeit tonally very different).
In Simon Reynolds' Energy Flash book i'm reading at the moment ( it's a history of dance culture) a section about the Goa beach party scene of around late 90s early 2000s Reynolds says how some DJs would often play the dub non vocal versions of New Order singles.Interesting to learn.Didn't name which ones though.
Watched this the other night.This year's John Peel Lecture given by Iggy Pop.All of New Order are in the audience and Barney asks Iggy a question at the end.Remarkable facial expressions by Steve Morris that are caught by the cameraman throughout Iggy's "Free Music In A Capitalist Society" talk.
The weekend before last Black Rivers (a new offshoot of Sub Sub/Doves) were doing a live session for Dermot O'Leary's Radio 2 show and he asked them how they solved the issue of who ended up singing in the bands they've been in. Jez Williams answered that they went with the "Rob Gretton school of thought" where they just did it themselves "like New Order". Rob of course was a champion of Sub Sub and Doves so it makes a lot of sense. Jez even attempted a grizzled impression of Rob while he explained. Wasn't expecting it during the session but a nice little nod to their past...
Iowa Republican HQ just played True Faith as Gov Terry Branstad took the podium to rub it in for his historic re-election in the State of Iowa. Shit.
Age of Concent at Banana Republic a clothing store in NYC, They love New Order, I heard so many NO songs playing there
Local TV program from Central California circa 1986. Clothes/hair/dancing seem even more dated.
Includes excellent lip-sync and awkward bikini competitions!

I've never heard of Stacey Q. So I had to find that italodisco track, Two of the Hearts... For that I thank you. Did you watch that program back in the day?

I don't remember it, though I did live nearby at the time.
Pointless BBC1 Monday. Jackpot round. Couple chose Madchester (yeh I know) ![[:)]](/emoticons/smile.gif){kind=small}
Anyway they had inclusive choice of James & Stone Roses singles or New Order albums to make top 40 in UK. They chose James and all answers were pointless. Only New Order pointless answers were Lost Sirens (wasn't sure at the time it was top 40 tbh) and Low Life of all things!
On the phone with JCREW a clothing store and they put me on hold and the back groud music was thieves like us ny NO.
Bernard was out in Alderley Edge the other night, first time I have seen him for a while, hopefully he has been busy working on the new material!
Well, Blue Monday spotting really. Some of Lapsley's other stuff on Soundcloud is quite nice in a James Blake sort of way.
KRAFTY playing in Duane & Reade in Bay Ridge Brooklyn a Pharmacy chain store in NYC, I was super excited when I heard it in the store.
