Great stuff.I was at the Sheffield Roxy gig 8th June 1987.Fantastic night and vividly remember them doing Do The Ostrich.Having said that, i was always a bit puzzled to what it was all about.Was it a bastardised version of a Lou Reed song or something? Have the bootleg of this gig too.Never seen any photos or video footage of it however.

Johnny it was a Lou Reed song, I saw them play it at the Woolwich Coronet.

Merry Xmas Dude!

Merry Xmas to you too Mike.

As it happens, i'm looking to get a new boiler sometime soon.I have read Ideal boilers are the best.My plumber however only installs Baxi.Not a big fan of Baxi so i'll have to break it to my boiler man that i'm going to have to go elsewhere for a boiler installation.

Just listened to the Lou Reed (Primitives) version for the frst time yesterday after someone posted a link on the "New Order" FB page. Pre- Velvet Underground. Never thought I'd learn/hear anything new from that page. Guess I was wrong!
