I hope we don't forget about this idea either. This is something I've thought about doing for some time now. If we do go forward with this, where do we start with organizing this?

Shug, when exactly is your trip over here and for how long? I dont see how anyone could mind planning it around your travel time, especially since youd be travelling the farthest. July would be cool with me.

I would say a city that someone lives in wouldnt be bad, that way we would have someone to show us around. But more importantly someone who could get us the venue, arrange a dj, etc. Biznotic did say he had connections in Seattle, and Shug is headed there for the football tourney, hence the original idea of Seattle.....
Seattle would definitely make sense...the UK bunch will be here, the Cali crew would have a short jump and the rest of you can see what you're missing by living in places like Grand Rapids and Dallas! Our country is too fucking big to truly organize an event like this...i took a train from london to edinborugh that lasted 12hrs...nearly end to end of the UK ...a similar 12hr ride on Amtrak (if i survived) would only get me to Denver...i must point out that for this and other reasons AMERICA SUCKS.
Getting a club lined up for a NewOrder party would be simple for me to do. I have friends in low places. Vancouver is another beautiful city not far from here. Lots of advantages to Vancouver...but not all can be openly discussed.
It seems like two seperate get togethers may need to happen. Perhaps we should even extend this invite to the users at Worldinmotion...after all, we are in this together right? A neworder fan is a friend of mine regardless of where his/her browser is pointed.
Seattle gets my vote...
Is there anyway Nick or Sebastien could keep it at the top of the list so that it doesn't get lost among new posts?

The first match of the 4 team tournament is Celtic Vs Man Utd, played in Seattle on the 22nd of July, we haven't sorted out travel plans yet, but hopefully we'll have enough money to last two weeks in your fair land, probably arrining July 20 or 21
Definitely gonna go New York, and would love to visit some Irish relations in Boston:D 
Gotta go....finish work in 5 mins.
If we were to organize something in the baltimore/washington area, I can definatly secure a venue. But it seems that toronto, montreal or seattle are the top choices, It looks like Biznotic has seattle covered if we went there, but if we do it in one of the other two cities, we need someone here to help us out and suggest a venue.
I don't know if I'd be able to attend if it was in Seattle. What would the airfare be? Seems like it would be expensive, for me anyways.
I don't know about summer, I get about a week off in mid-June if I go through with getting my required courses out of the way in order to transfer to a bigger university. I might could make it to something in early August....oh well, I'll worry about it when I get to that point. :)
:car:
round trips from Chicago usually go for $200. I got round trip to neworleans from Seattle for 250. Use priceline.com or look in your local paper for people selling vouchers...
tickets from the Detroit/chicago area can even be found for under 200 if you keep your eyes peeled and book early...
I'm getting married in june, so basically, it would be very hard for me to attend if near June 
Well, a trip to Vancouver is as long as a trip to Paris.. and believe me, I'd rather go to Paris 
Probably the best pick would be Toronto since it's in the middle (near Chicago, well, near is a big word)...
What we should do is get 50$ each and pay New Order to do a private gig for us, then everybody would come :D
How about NO playing at your wedding, Spotty? 
"And now, the newlyweds' dance.....We're like crystal/we break easy..."
damn, i'm all the way down here in florida...but i could make it up nawth in the spring sometime, perhaps. NYC would be my top choice, since that's where all of my good friends in the US are and i'd love to swing by and visit them.
having said that, i've never been to eastern canada before, only BC....

...the song would be most fitting if you were jewish...MAZEL TOV!

it's an hour and a half away for me!:D

Originally posted by Taboo # 7 How about NO playing at your wedding, Spotty?
Hummm... well, problem is, as much as I would love that, there will be lots of french cheesy music played.....!!!
But, I wonder if they would do a special fan concert if everyone was willing to book them at a specific date...
"Fans only" concert.. No Blue Monday and other stuff they don't want to play
Originally posted by Jim "The Him" Las Vegas!!! Lots to do, and you can drink in the streets!
hmmm....neutral location, cheap flights....interesting
Originally posted by The Happy One and who says we don't want to hear Blue Monday???
I do! Well, actually I like BM 88. I can handle that version quite a bit. The original is a little too dated for me. I like the '88 addtions.

like that new pic there Brian!!!
okay kids...I'm interested...but I have to be in Seattle in late July for the Man U-Celtic match...so if we are going to do something besides this, we need to figure it out soon, so I can get my vacation request in...
Vegas does sound like a pretty cool place to do it...
but I'm up for just about anything...
sentimental vote goes for Montreal...so we can all meet up with Nicos and Sebsy...
cheers Jeff...i've been learning photoshop and the new image is a work in progress...someone hijacked my discography gif!
Originally posted by WenOrder I've heard that toronto is the place to go in canada? I've been wanting to visit that city for some time now.
you're cracking me up!!!!! MAN !!!!
Hey! I don't, I've never been to canada! it's just the people I've spoken to about visiting Canada tells me that I have to go to Toronto.
