What a fantastic gig! New Order were fantastic and obviously enjoying themselves, as did I, the set list was almost perfect and the atmosphere electric.If anyone has a bootleg of the gig in the making I would be very interested.New stuff from Get Ready was few and far between and Only Crystal from the new album stood up against the old stuff, which included Ceremony,Your silent face,Transmission,Atmosphere,True Faith,Temptation and Bizarre love triangle.The encore got of to a ropey start when they attempted to play Rock the shack but abandoned it after a few seconds with barney saying "fuck it lets play blue monday instead this is too difficult" I'm off to try and get a ticket for tonight now still grinning with contentment and my ears still ringing :)
