NO: 03 MAY 1985 Club 'D' - Tokyo Japan
Setlist
This has finally surfaced via an audience recording from the mysterious 'Kinney'.
TJ comments: "And what a treat it was too. A gig that had everything. Great versions, shoddy versions, more bum notes than the National farting contest, sequencer failures, banter, Rob (sounded like him anyway) calling Barney a knobhead, quintessential Gillianisms at times, duelling ice cream vans during Leave Me Alone. Fabulous stuff. Cheers again, this is such a great find and well worth the 34 year wait!!"
Your Silent Face starts off the proceedings.

BS: "This is called The Perfect Kiss"
Sooner Than You Think follows...with a partial breakdown during the intro.
Bernard says "Sequencer" before starting the first verse.
The song sort of stumbles to an end, followed by 5-8-6, which has a frew drum sequences that stop and start before the song proper gets going.
Bernard tells the crowd to relax, as best as I can make out as he plays a chord from _The___Village_ before the sequencer starts.
Leave Me Alone
BS: "Eddie, Eddie can you turn the acoustic kit down...?"
Near the end it sounds like the guitars go out of tune, sparking the "ice cream vans" comment.
BS: "Song's called This Time Of Night".
This next song is a very old song, it's the very first song we recorded as New Order, it's called Ceremony, only Ian knows what it means[?], and we played it once in Joy Division."
Some wild audience banter at this point.
Guy: "Aw geez, what happened to your hand?" (not "hair", though that would make more sense given the answer that follows...)
Girl: "Lice."
Somebody then shows out "Drink a beer".
Blue Monday
Greeted to cheers.
BS: "It seems a bit a way... [something] record.". A female (Australian) voice can be heard "you understand this?". Seems that the band self-edited the track by cutting the power, which was greeted by boos.
BS: "I screwed that up. It's erm...."
Punter yells "It's OK, it's OK, I don't mind."
Confusion
About 2:05 in Bernard yells "Sequencer".
Temptation
Off-mic shout of "ready".
BS: "Eddie, these monitors don't seem to be working at all...somebody's possibly unplugged it...seequencer doesn't come through. The sequencer doesn't come through."
OZ: "Wasn't working, Barney.
BS: "What, Ozzie."
OZ: "It wasn't working, you knobhead."
RG: "You knobhead."
BS: "These three knobheads, yeah."
RG: "At least we know we can't fucking hear it."
BS: "He knows about [can't make out]." Some guitar noodling follows, and then finally, the track. Some terrific guitar to close this out.
BS: "Thanks very much".
Versions
SBD #1 - All we have is the insert, the tape itself seems to be missing.
ANA #1, Kinney - 70:37. At the beginning of TPK, a woman's voice can be heard "I can see a little. Jump Jump!". At the end: "Hot". BM: At the beginning a woman says "I want to drink beer too", song cuts off midway. Lots of technical issues during this show.
