I guess I need to change my menus, many people post in the off-topic forum by mistake.. even Rowetta!
Welcome here BTW, nice to see an actual Factory recording artist on board ![]()
Nice one, wonder if Rowetta still has that big Whip that we used to see at the Mondays gigs:D I actually got the balls to say "Hello" to her outside the Pub across from the Olympia in 2001, she was there with Bezrick and a couple of the lads from Black Grape.

Check out this gallery to see Ness' pictures.
Mmm not captured Barneys best side i think.. sorry but he looks a complete dork in the photos...hehehe

I think this picture is probably the one on which Barney looks the WORST EVER -- it beats out the one on which he passed out circa 1983 (it's on the pictures gallery, Barney Sumner section).
As a matter of fact, this is exactly how I imagine Barney looking in his coffin AFTER he's burried:

is that hooky in the skull t-shirts? he looks really confused and geriatric.. but he did raise the roof a fair bit.
were these the "best" pictures... or the "worst"... ? LOL
really did laugh out loud when i saw them!!

is this the real life version of Beavis and Butthead???
Didn't we all look like this after not too much sleep and a few beers? Barney is 48 and New Order don't pay some kind of management, who checks every picture that is allowed to publish like Madonna or U2. Dirty little small idiots full of resentment make me puke. Dirk
these pictures are great because it reminds you that those guys are just like any of us: fat, old, drunk, mongoloid, pretty bald, with glasses, etc,etc ;) but wow. barney really got old in the past year, didn´t he?
A great time was had by all, I'm sure, but after seeing these pictures I'll have to retract the post I put in the 'Luxury' thread !
I think he raised his hand for asking a girl to Peter.He likes him a lot really :) Is he drinking alcoholic drinks again ? I remember when I saw him for last time he just drank orange juice :(
Must stick up for Bernard. Although the pictures don't make him look his best. When you saw him animated on the night he looked a lot better, I think he looks younger than his years!
I agree with Ness. You had to be there.
They look fantastic in the flesh. A lot better than some other 24 Hour Party People!
Thanks to Ness for sending me the extra photos. I don't look too clever, but I think the boys look fab.

Eh? He's ONLY 47, man!
hilarious! good time had by all then. but Jesus! Hooky, that shirt man~sort it out!!!! still love the pair of them to f****** pieces.
I was there at rtny an it was excellent,best night since old trafford gig, bernie and hooky were on top form,and being 43 yrs old and totally off my face i was in a worst state than bernie in that photo i can tell ya.The party carried on well into the night in the hotel,which also was,nt a pretty state in the morning either. also erral alkin played a blinder too.Top marks arthur we were all well baked, what a night.
Oh dear. Neil Tennant looks younger than Barney. At least Hooky still looks like a party animal.

Agreed, though I wouldn't put it quite so strongly. Take absolutely anyone, stick a few drinks down their necks, get 'em up on a stage and ask 'em to do Barney's chimp dancing then snap a few random pics. No one's gonna look too hot like that.
I don't hear too many negative comments from those who were there, and had the opportunity to run shoulders with Barney or Hooky. The boys looked fine.

On some pictures, Barney looks like Tony Wilson :D
At least some pics I have from the 24HPP premiere!!
