Did anyone go see New Order on this tour?

vamos [Edit] [Delete] 09:52, 17 November '15

Went last night when a friend couldn't go. Was a bit reluctant to given the only time I'd seen them prior to this was at Temptation 1998-1999, the NYE all nighter at Ally Pally with Underworld, Laurent Garnier, Chemical Brothers etc. Genuinely didn't think they could hold a flame to it.

But they were really good. Think Barney may be a better vocalist now than he was then and the set was incredibly electronic focused, which played to their strengths. They threw in a few old classic too and hearing Age of Consent and 586 in particular was great.

The new stuff sounded ok too. Definitely when there was a lull in the atmosphere as the crowd were there for the hits, but mixed with the classics well. Lots of nice nods to Paris too.

Really top night. They're playing tonight in Brixton again and I think there's still tickets...
