hope that every one that went got back ok & all signed items from the terminus bar made it home in one piece!

shame about the bad organisation by the promoters almost spoiling it by the long queues.

talk about hangovers the next day....

Indeed, great night. And good to expand the London Order!

Anyone actually remember what Barney played though? There was that DIRE version of Bowie's "Heroes" with some bird warbling, then that "Security" thing he produced(?) and the obligatory Blue Monday closer (same as the live set then?!), but I couldn't pick out anything else of note from the rest of his set. All sounded dated though - late 80's / early 90's.

Did Hooky do anything at all in the end? Or was it purely Alex James thereafter?!

And Barney should really cut the ManYoo rubbish. It's one thing in a live set, but whilst he's DJ'ing too? David Beckham? Busby Babes? Hmmmm.

Can't remember anything they played - it all blurred into one, but nothing stood out as I recall. I was near the front and Hooky definately didn't do anything! It was Alex James that played Blue Monday as his first record. So they weren't that narcissistic!

the djing was shite. they just slapped one record on after the next without mixing, kinda like an 80's school disco

Send them to nleblanc@spotnick.com

I'll do it.. if my damn neworderonline.com mailbox would work it would be easier, but use that email.

Thanks, will do.

Surprised no one has mentioned Hooky's shirt yet - was interesting to say the least! You should get to see it if I ever get these photos sorted.

Hi Flo, good to meet you on the night, even though we didn't really see that much of you!

Anyone interested in writing the "news" for us?

A small text (or not) about the Event, what happened and etc?

I'm lazy.. and very busy.

I have Ness' pictures, this will be great for our front page, but if anyone can do a "press release", go ahead.

P/S: Seems like my mailbox is working again... but if you send me something, CC it to nleblanc@spotnick.com until I confirm you it clears..

Holy crap! Bernard looks soooo old... I know he is really, but so much has changed over the years.

I'm kinda sad now.
