Just some remarks on the above list:

"Heart And Soul" has been played just 4 times in 1998 and "New Dawn Fades" has been played just once in 2001, so they weren't considered part of the current setlists.
"Atmosphere", "Digital", "Isolation", "Love Will Tear Us Apart", "She’s Lost Control" and "Transmission" are already in the current setlists.
I've included "Novelty" in the list just to avoid complaints from Rocket Mick. :D

I was almost voting for "Decades" but I decided to pick something New Order never have played live, so I went with "Twenty Four Hours".

Decades. Possibly the only song that fits New Order better than it fitted Joy Division. Lush strings........I still get a shiver up my spine when I listen to the Festival Hall 84 or the Paradiso 84 gig.

16 Dec 2002, 17:59

there are far too many overlooked NEWORDER songs for them to be bothering with JD tracks...they need to play the NO material before they call it a day and leave the JD alone....

16 Dec 2002, 18:29

But JD material is NO material... :skeptic:

So it's good for them to play their old songs!

I voted for Dead Souls, but I'd like to have them play New Dawn Fades with Bernard on vocals... ;)

16 Dec 2002, 18:37

personally i'd take:

Sooner Than You Think Leave Me Alone Lonesome Tonight Thieves Vanishing Point Dream Attack Let's Go Procession EGG AOC Here To Stay Sunrise

and many more over ANY Joy Division song...

i know they were JD but there are too many good NewOrder songs to bother with JD songs...maybe one or two per set but 5 is pushing it a little too far.

16 Dec 2002, 18:56

must go with new dawn fades...perhaps in place of atmosphere? it's not their best live moment.

I'm with you about them concentrating more on New Order material but it is exciting when they dust off a Joy Division classic or two in a set.

I know they tend to rehearse fewer songs for their tours lately but the Joy Division songs tend to be less complex. Perhaps they could work on 5 or so JD songs per tour, and then decide at each concert which 2 to throw in.

If I had to hear NO do some more JD songs, I'd prefer something from the early days, which is why I voted for Sound Of Music.

17 Dec 2002, 00:35

i'd like them to rock with colony

17 Dec 2002, 00:39

Gotta go with "Dead Souls" but I'd love to hear "The Eternal" too. That would be really eerie.

17 Dec 2002, 01:33

Or what about them just playing an overall Joy Division set for their fans? It would be great, for me, no matter what they picked.

17 Dec 2002, 04:50

I'll go with New Dawn Fades for argument's sake but, quite frankly, I don't want to see any more Joy Division stuff added.

We get more than enough already.

There's so many better, IMhO, New Order songs I'd rather hear again over all the JD stuff..

17 Dec 2002, 05:02

Have to agree with Al and Biznotic on this one.

Lets hear neworder play some of the fantastic neworder songs we havent heard for donkeys years they delve into the vaults..... :)

17 Dec 2002, 08:32

"These Days". It would fit perfectly in a NO setlist...

17 Dec 2002, 08:50

i went with "Day of the Lords" but would've voted for "twenty four hours" as well

of course id love to hear "as it is when it was" played again too

Moby took New Dawn Fades, so I say 24 hours...

that's not a bad little setlist Brian...I"m with Brian on this one...to heck with doing JD songs...play these instead!!!

I think 4 Joy Division songs per gig is alright. I agree with Agentwood, they should drop "Atmosphere" (great song, but not with Barney singing) to free some room for another track.

Maybe 4 songs of a 24 song set.

17 Dec 2002, 17:54

I voted for Atrocity exhibition, but further thinking has me wondering if thats right. I guess pretty much any of the joy division stuff would rule, with a few exceptions. There are some JD songs that ONLY Mr Curtis could sing, of course thats just my opinion.

I have to disagree.. when I heard the Peel Session 98 version, I had to say it was the best version of this song.

Don't get me wrong, I love the Ian Curtis version, but I had shivers (not gas) when I heard that version!!!

18 Dec 2002, 00:35

FAO: Benny & Andy T...

Cool things down a little boys, it's Christmas Time...!

(bad excuse I know, but I'd like to avoid a conflict in here)...

18 Dec 2002, 06:49

I've said it before, but I really like NO's version of LWTUA that they performed on "Later with Jools Holland"...

But as for the selection of "other" that I made in the poll, I would have to go with either "The Drawback" or "They Walked In Line"...it might sound interesting.

It's really strange I hadn't post here :scratch:

Maybe I was banned those days by Sebastien :evil4:

16 Nov 2003, 18:59

at a later date would be my personal choice. barney could regrow the whiskers from the electric circus gig for the next NO tour

16 Nov 2003, 19:17

can I vote for none of the above???

I would really prefer to only hear order choons at an order gig!!!

come on, flame me...I can take it!!!
