For one of three copies of New Order live at Echo Beach, San Francisco 24/06/83 (today 20 years ago), answer this question.
Where did Perfect Kiss make its 100th known live appearance ?
There is a right answer. Here's a clue. It didn't appear there the last three times they played this venue.
Answers by e-mail as per the previous competition yesterday. First three correct answers get a copy. Good luck to everyone.

Have they only ever played The original Perfect Kiss live?
What about the various mixes of it ie: pit, kiss of death etc.. or do they just "remix" it each time they play it live (as they so often do with other songs...!)

Four versions - the early version May-June 84 that had different sequencer line at start. Second version was the one commonly played between July 84 and 1989. Third version was played as a one-off at Salford University 1985 (I think this could almost be considered to have been The Kiss of Death). Fourth version was the 1993 version that omitted the beginning.

Only one of the sequencer tracks kicked in, the second melody line that underpins the song - and Gillian wasn't playing the chords at the start. Gave it a very Kiss of Death feel. I'll see if I can dig it out tonight and convert it to MP3.
Only two winners so far ! One still to go, so get your guesses in......
Here's a clue, for all the academics out there. Witness.
Has there been an acrimonious split with The Cobwebs? Will they go on with another frontman? NME has nothing on this.

It's all done and dusted ;)
On here, I am only spokesman for me - Jon and Jim have their own identities, so I wouldn't want to speak for them !
We have our three winners !
They are :
Ricardo Geri Robin Bashinsky
CD will be in the post over the weekend.
The answer was : Brixton Academy 4/4/87

Al doesn't want a CD of San Francisco 83 - he was the first to reply correctly but opted not to claim ! Anyway, it was Bronski Beat not Erasure !
Originally posted by masaaki sakai good point.well made.(did you see gloucesters score in the twenty20 yesterday btw?)
Bloody Spearman getting out for 88. Could have done with some more points for him. Mind you, Hollioake 5-21 was useful !

Which Hotel did they stay in ?
