New Order at QEH London ( John Peel day)
The whole evening lived up to my expectations. It was an eclectic mix of music ( just like listening to a Peel show !). I hoped before the gig that New Order might "do something different" and did they just. The sound was tight and the band really seemed to love it with a passion. I couldn't believe it when Shadowplay started up as I never even saw that one live when I saw Joy Division. As for doing "Warsaw" well that was true testimony to where Peel first launched this great band on the world. What a night ( and I've just recorded three tracks off Radio 1 tonight).
