NO: 05 OCT 2001 The Apollo, Manchester
Crystal, Transmission, Regret, Ceremony, 60 Miles An Hour, Your Silent Face, Slow Jam, Close Range, Touched By the Hand Of God, Bizarre Love Triangle, True Faith, Temptation, Love Will Tear Us Apart, Atmosphere [encore] Ruined In A Day, Rock The Shack, Blue Monday
The copy of this in my possession doesn't have the listed encore tracks, but it seems that it should have at least had RIAD and RtS, though it does miss out on final track 'Blue Monday'. I've subsequently received another recording which is complete.
AW: "Arthur Baker...just give us a couple of minutes, couple of minutes while the guys get ready cuz I just want to tell you something about these guys. It's not all dollars and dimes. I really love these guys, I love 'em. I love Hooky's legs, I love Bernard's bottom, and I love Steve's mouth. Eh, you listen...you know they've got their own musical influences, and we're very honoured tonight to have a guest here that's gonna be with 'em that's kind of launched them on their career. I want to give you a big Manchester welcome to Mr. Max Bygraves! Max."
"Max": Alright, it's not Max, it's Ken. To a fucking good time and let New Order rock the fucking house!"
AW: "So give them a welcome....it's JOY DIVISION!"
Chants of 'New Order' can be heard.
Crystal
BS: "I must apologize for, eh, Hooky's boyfriend's speech there. It's the big guy, it's the portly guy, he likes 'em big. Anyway, we're New Order, you're the audience, and this is Crystal."
He says this through some nice-sounding feedback.
Bernard messes up on the first line and/or the vocals weren't turned up on time.
BS: "Thank you. Wooo!"
PH: "You're very kind.
BS: "Well..." (or some similar interjection)
PH: (at the same time, making it hard to hear what Bernard said) "It's girls, not boys."
Transmission
BS: "It's not like chanting for New Order, because this is a Joy Division song, it's called Transmission."
Regret
BS: "Okay, we're gonna play you a New Order song. This is called Regret."
Audience member says something in hard-to-decipher brogue near the start. Levels go up around the 2:20 point.
BS: "Thank you. Fucking hard work, this, you know."
Ceremony follows.
60__Miles___An___Hour_
BS: "Eh, this is...this is a song off our new album, and it's called 60 Miles, uh, Miles An Hour, or 60 MPH ...I don't know what that it is in kilometers, I'll let you work it out for yourself."
Your Silent Face
BS: "'ank you. So we better chill things out a little bit now, because I don't know about you lot, but I'm getting pretty hot up here. And you know what, I don't like getting hot. I don't think anyone does really, do they? Well, not anyone from Manchester."
A few seconds pause.
BS: "Please welcome our new guitarist, Mr. Phillip Cunningham. Good Northern lad. Although he's too posh for us now, he lives in LA. Stuck up twat. Okay, this is Your Silent Face."
Playing goes a bit askew at 3:30 point.
Bernard doesn't sing the signature lines, but the fans fill it in just fine.
BS: "Thank you very much."
Fans chant...you know what...
Slow_Jam
BS: "Bunch of Manchester United fans in here tonight. (quite a few fans boo, it's mostly City folks) Good to hear it. I'm going to an England match tomorrow. Good to hear it. I think I've run out of things to say actually, you're right. This is Slow Jam, off our new album."
Close_Range_
BS: "Eh, this is another song off the new album, it's called Close Range."
BS: "Thank you."
Touched By The Hand Of God
PH: "Heh heh he...three guesses [mumble]..."
Punter yells out the right answer.
PH: "Ah, you were here last night, you bastard."
BS: "Pardon? Excuse Hooky's sparkling wit there. He usually starts the swearing at this time of night, don't approve of it myself."
PH: "Fuck off."
BS: "See what I mean? Very...right. This is Touched By The Hand Of God."
Quite a few "woahs" throughout. As well as some good wah-wah from Phil.
BS: "'k you. Did you like the new dance? (chuckles) It's ridiculous, really, ain't it [word].... W've got to do something, don't we, in between singing. It's a bit of a hop, really innit, more than a dance.
Bizarre Love Triangle
This song is about Hooky and his boyfriend who came on earlier. Big fat Al. Oh, sorry, big fat Ken, and it's called...Bizarre Love Triangle."
PH: "Truth is stranger than fiction."
BS: "Or soon-to-be boyfriend..."
(at end)
BS: "Ohh, thank you."
Chants of...well...you know...Synth note.
True Faith
BS: "Where's Hooky gone? He's like a fookin' Jack-in-the-Box, isn't he? You'll have to put a chain 'round your leg."
PH: "It's all my youthful energy, you see."
BS: "All right, this is True Faith."
punter: "One of the best songs...Bernard..."
BS: "Thank you. You know, we never ever ever ever get the end of that song right. And it's Hooky's fault, always."
PH: "You don't mean that, Barney..." [not 100% sure if that's what he actually says]
BS: "Sometimes it's Steve, and sometimes it's Phil, but it's never fucking me."
PH: "We can do it with more members of the band."
BS: "Actually, it's the audience's fault."
Temptation
BS: "Okay, this is a song that you all know and love. It is Temptation."
Love Will Tear Us Apart
BS: "In your one time, when you're ready.
Blood curdling scream near the end...
BS: "Thank you!"
Atmosphere
PH: "You certainly turned me a [mumble], fuck me. Right, Andrew. Andrew Fisher, we're all thinking about you, mate, this is for you. I hate that fucker...one, two, three, four..."
BS: "Thank you, good night. Been a fucking great audience..."
AUD #2 has the encore tracks.
Ruined In A Day
BS: "They do it, we never play encores, you know? We only play for 40 minutes,...the good old days." Well, you've been such a good audience, we're gonna play a really miserable song for you, it's called Ruined In A Day. It's about Tony Wilson. Do not tell him!"
BS: (at end) "There you go, just to show you that we've got the potential to be miserable."
Rock The Shack
BS: "This is a fairly new song, we've not played it often."
PH: (giggles) "Sounds like you need to tune that, Bernard."
BS: "This is Rock The Shack"
BS: (at end) "Phil's gotta get the solo sorted out on that one, sorry about that, it's nerves, that."
Blue Monday
BS: "Okay, this is your favorite and our favorite, Blue Monday."
