Bless they dropped rock the Shack after 30 seconds and no Ruined.
Quality not quantity tho'.
Totally blinding best ever I've heard version of Bizarre Love Triangle and the band were totally up for it tonight. Woops and hollars galore. Barney and Hooky having a right old spar between songs, Barney laughing and Steve laughing and singing along as well.
Despite not setting off the metal detectors I was frisked anyway. Glad I didn;t take my minidisc.
Got it in ok to the first manc night..but the band were a bit off at points plus I had a lady with me who insisted in talking during and between songs. ggrrrrrrrrrrrr
met up with Al and Jon and bumped into several other faces from the manc show. Sound blokes the lot of them :-)
Onto tomorrow night we go :-D!!!

As already mentioned by Colin, the Glasgow gig was something a bit special being described by one of the venue promoters as perhaps one of the most impressive gigs he had ever seen.
Ally and myself were left in the enviable position of viewing the bands soundcheck in the cavernous Barrowland along with perhaps only 8 others in attendance. Bernard completed "Rock The Shack" then exited stage left leaving the remaining members of the band to play "Crystal" with a member of the bands crew looking after vocals. A couple of run throughs seemed to please the band then Hooky hit us with "Transmission", again with a management member taking care of the vox.

Hi Ceremony Gang.
Just wanted to share with you my New Order Glasgow experience: (setlist updates at end, if you want to skip my ramble)
I just got back to Boston from Glasgow and saw both shows there. I exploited having a good friend to visit as an excuse to fly over to see my favorite band!! Had to keep up my record of seeing them at least once every year they've toured since 1986. right?!
The Sunday night show absolutely blew the roof off the Barrowlands!!! It was truly amazing. We were down front-center of the stage, and the moment the boys stepped on stage the crowd started hopping. By the end of the first song, we were drenched, but everyone just kept going. Later as the night went on the sweat mixed with tears of joy.
It was quite nice of them to throw in a couple slower songs just to get a break from the aerobics. Bernard and Hooky were totally having a blast, smiling and telling the audience how great we were, and joking with each other about getting old, bragging over who had the better roadie. heh.
Brilliant show!
Afterward I waited around front trying to get a setlist or something cool, but I had to settle for one of Bernard's plectrums. No big deal, probably never even used, but I play guitar a bit so I can use with the pleasure of knowing where it came from!
I have to say, I love seeing NewOrder in the UK. There seems to be more camaraderie. More people know all the songs instead of just the hits. When you're in the pit hopping around, everyone is your Best friend. It's good fun!

hey guys
i'm starting to listen to this gig, my goodness they played "transmission" and it sounds fucking great! I'm so floored. I got this show on Monday and I'm finally having time to listen to it.
i like how before "your silent face" the crowd (at least the crowd surrounding the taper) is chanting "true faith" so my question is whether the entire audience was chanting this, or just a part of the crowd was chanting. Surely someone from this list attended and can advise on this.
Al Jarvis doesn't recall hearing this, so most likely it was only the part of the crowd around the taper.
Versions
None that circulate. GaoBest has a recording of this from IR.
