Tidbit from Roger Lyons from Lionrock, who is responsible for the live programming on New Order's current tour:

...even as I am writing this I am importing a New Order Gig (Liverpool 2001) from 40 track ADATs and I would like to do a surround mix of this in Nuendo.

From Ceremony@monkey.edu:
Date: Thu, 19 Jul 2001 09:43:06 +0100
From: "Dave Stephenson"
Subject: (Fac33) Erm, some sort of NewOrder gig

Ow.

I'm in pain cos I've just been crushed at the front of the best NewOrder gig I have seen. OK, so the only ones I've seen are Reading 98 and Ally Pally before this one but OH MY GOD!

Opened with Atmosphere as a tribute to Rob Gretton and Hooky's Mum, then went on through a bevy of new and old tracks including Every Little Counts, Love Vigilantes, Crystal, Blauer Montag (of course), 60MPH and more which I can't be arsed to write out but I'm sure the set list will i appear somewhere soon.

Corgan didn't piss me off. He didn't say a thing all night and was only really audible on Turn My Way, Ruined in a Day and Blauer Montag - and even then his vocals were only apparent on Turn My Way, his guitar on Ruined in a Day and Blauer Montag.

Hooky was fucking loving it as usual, walking head down into Corgan, winding Barney up and stomping around the stage. Barney even looked as if he was enjoying himself too.

The new album sounds VERY good live. Not sure about Turn My Way or Slow Jam but Crystal and 60MPH just rock. It's gonna be a good one.

People of note spotted at the front include Andy Robinson and that roadie who looks like Arthur Baker and appears in The Perfect Kiss video.

The Olympia was a fantastic venue too - nice and small. But we won't even mention the, erm, After Show Party. Oh dear.

I think Barney summed it all up best when he said - "Woooo!"

@ Happy Jack

Transcription(s):

From 192mbps mp3 of DAT apparently recorded backstage...which was
missing the Alan Wise intro, which I have on another version of this show (very likely the same source, confusingly enough).

Intro

AW: "Now I know the band's been away, they've been a way a long time, and I don't know [this Allannah?]. Let's face it, they've been surpassed by better talents like the Spice Girls. Yes, so I took a look around, and then I thought, 'Why don't we get rid of all the blokes in the band and have an all-girl band. That's a bit better, innit? By the way, hello to Mrs. Smith, lemme see... John Smith, Dave Smith, and the wankers from Hollywood or something. Right, I want you to welcome now then, the new all-girl band from Manchester, the ladies of the JOY DIVISION."

Loud cheers and cries for New Order. The MP3 recording starts after Bernard greets the audience.

Atmosphere

BS: "Hello. Feels like we've never been away. Please welcome...Billy Corgan...and Phil Cunningham, our new guitarist for tonight. Hope you're gonna enjoy what we're gonna do...cuz we certainly are. Let's have a great time! [hooky chuckles] Here we go."

PH: "Just a sober moment, this is for all the people that can't be here, this for Becky, Rob Gretton, and my mother, God bless them all!"

Barney whoops a few times during this song. He stopped doing this after the backlash against his overexuberance at what is supposed to be a dirgeful ballad.

BS: "Thank you. Thanks a lot!"

Slow_Jam

BS: "Okay, this is a song off our new album, which is called Get Ready, and the song's called Slow Jam, hope you like it!"

Audience member yells out something "sure we will..."

BS: "So listen carefully..."

This version is faster and more guitar-based, and missing the synth squiggle. Mix has Barney's vocals move from right to center and back again...don't know if the taper was moving during the first verse.

Some wah-wah guitar near the end. And Hooky can clearly be heard doing the ending chorus.

BS: "Thank you, you're very patient..."

Crystal

BS: "Okay, this is another new one. but you have to be patient cuz we're gonna play a lot of songs for you tonight. We're gonna play for a whole hour and a...hour and a half, which by our standards is a very long time. [guitar chord]. And by the end of the set, by your standards it'll be a very long time as well."

Piano into for Crystal starts.

BS: "This is Crystal, our new single. You've not heard it yet?"

Somebody yells "Hooooookkkkky!" at least twice.

Drum backing seems to be a bit different, vocals are low in the mix and a bit off. Plenty of whoops, though. "You shock me to the core, ooh, yeah!"

BS: "'ak you." [guitar/bass strum] "Oh, it wasn't bad, wasn't it, was it all right?. All right, now we're playing...after we bored you with those new songs, we're gonna play something you know now. "That's how we know it as well."

Regret

BS: "Jeremy, make sure I hear the click, please."

Volume levels go up and sound is clearer...

BS: "Woo! Thank you!"

Audience starts chanting "New Order, New Order, New Order!"

Love_Vigilantes

PH: "This one is for your dad. Prin(?) God bless..."

punter: "Go on 'ooky lad, go on 'ooky!"

Somebody actually calls out for Transmission...

Barney can be heard quietly testing out his melodica playing!

BS: "Excuse my rather large embarrassing melodica.. I have got a small one, but it's not the size that counts, is it? Okay, this is Love Vigiantes."

Song plays. Good version.

BS: "Woo! I didn't realize my voice was so high."

Isolation

BS: "It's a bit hot, innit it? [heavy guitar riffing and feedback]

Audience member calls out "Hooky!"

PH: "Yes...was there something?"

BS: "Okay, we're gonna reach back into the annals of history now. This is sung by Joy Division, it's called Isolation."

BS: "'ak You"...song closes out.

Your_Silent_Face

PH: "No...do I wanna know how big and how fucking ugly you are? NO."

BS: "This is another one that features my instrumental prowess on the melodica. I learned it at school. Very interessting fact. Ok."

Song starts.

BS: "We're playing all our old favorites tonight. Jump up and dance to 'em."

Hooky, et al. help with the "Why don't you PISS OFF!".

(at the end)

BS: "Thank you. I've always liked that song..."

[note: some versions have KW1 and Turn My Way transposed]

Turn_My_Way

BS: "Okay, I'm afraid we're got time to inflict you with some of our new songs. This is called 'Turn My Way'." Oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, hang on...boys, hang on...featuring Billy on vocals, well done..."

(audience members cry out "Billy Corgan on vocals!", which is to whom Barney address "well done to", as well as a "c'mon Barney, lad")

PH: "He's very shy."

BC: "All right guys..."

A portion of the performance of Turn My Way made it into the 511 DVD, very cool. Sounds like a tape edit at the end, odd considering this is the 21st century and this was supposedly a DAT recording..

BS: "Thank you."

Close_Range

Edit in the tape. Nice drum intro.

The mp3 version cuts off at 4:07.

BS: "Thank you, that reminds me of when I used to be a punk."

Touched_By_The_Hand_Of_God

BS: "Oh my, it's hot. Especially down here. Touched By The Hand Of God."

Hooky sings one of the "It belongs to you" refrains. Also some wah-wah guitar in the earlier part.

BS: "'ak you."

Bizarre_Love_Triangle

PH: "This one is for your hopeless romantics..."

BS: (at the same time as Hooky) "Do you know how...do you know how fucking hot it is up here?"

Audience member cries out "How hot?" (presumably the guy that's been heckling throughout)

BS: "I tell you, it's hotter up here than it is down there. [mumble] You'll find out cuz you're gonna be on this fucking stage at the end of the show. Okay, here we go."

(after)

BS: "Thank you. Woo!"

True_Faith

More "New Order!" chants.

BS: "Thank you. Having a good time? Not supposed to happen at our gigs, yer out of order!"

The opening bass sounds absolutely massive.

BS: "'k you! Wonder where that came from? I see you all getting into it a little bit now..."

Temptation

BC: "Um..."

PH: "You'll have to scream a little louder."

BS: "Whoo. Oh yeah, this is Temptation."

You know the audience is singing along...and this is a "last fucking time" version too.

BS: "Whoo...thank you...wicked, man. Ok, Hooky, you were standing on the the bloody half of the stage as well..."

Tape fades...then the last sentence above is repeated.

Love_Will_Tear_Us_Apart

PH: "Hey, he gets all [hot] that I'm enjoying meself. Still a miserable twat, isn't he? (think he's talking about Bernard, not Corgan!) "Come over here."

BS: "How about we all get started tonight...Billy."

Hooky yells out "C'mon!!" during the second chorus.

BS: "Thank you. Oh, that's the end? Thanks a lot, you've been a great audience!"

Bass feedback at the end.

Encore

Ruined_In_A_Day

BS: "Sorry but Hooky had to put some Savlon on his ass. Only joking! We've enjoyed this so much we'd play the whole set again for you..."

PH: "...But you've gotta pay again, so c'mon."

BS: "One two one two..."

Audience member (sounds like Alex!) calls out "Hooky, 60 Miles An Hour". Somebody else says something, it's that presumably what Hooky is responding to.

PH: "No, it's about 120 at the moment, how's yours?"

BS: "Okay, let's go."

They play a nice version.

BS" "'ak you."

_60__Miles_An_Hour

PH: "Ehh, this one is for my daughter Heather, it's here first day of work today, she did very well."

BS: "Ok, this is 60 Miles An Hour."

Which they go ahead and perform...ends in a howl of feedback and wah-wah.

Blue_Monday

BS: "Eh, thank you. Okay, this really is our last song. I wanna see if you can guess what we're gonna play. Someone said Blue Monday. Yes, you're right. See me after, and I'll give you a prize."

(Heh, that was classic)

BS: "Actually, it's called FUCKING Blue Monday now cuz I'm FUCKING sick of it. Only joking."

Hooky exclaims during the bridge "must be me!" Corgan's guitar can be very faintly heard throughout.

Song ends in bass feedback and a synth wash.

PH: "Good night every-body!"

And that's it.

Penis references, slaging off Blue Monday, audience putdowns, they've still got it, folks!


NO: 28 JUL 01 Fuji Rock Festival - Japan

Transcription of streaming webcast...the video's not very watchable, and the audio is muddy and monaural, given low encoding bitrate (24kbps for the music). Still, way better than nothing.

Needless to say, the transcription of this one was particularly difficult. Hopefully, I can get my hands on a higher quality version at some point in the future.

Assuming the webcast aired the performance in sequence, the song order was the following (giving the song titles as listed):

Atmosphere
Crystal
Regret
Love Vigilantes
Isolation
KW1 (Your Silent Face)
Slow Jam
Turn My Way
Bizarre Love Triangle
Close Range
Touched (Touched By The Hand Of God)
True Faith ('98)
Temptation
Love Will Tear Us Apart

(encore)

Ruined In A Day
60 Miles Per Hour
Blue Monday

BS: "Hello, we're New Order. With our new guitarist... [and ?word? ?Phil Cunningham?] (can't make out exactly what he says here)

Atmosphere

BS: "And...we're gonna start off with a Joy Division song. It's called Atmosphere"

PH: "For all the girls at East/West, thank you."

The synth has a interesting shimmering effect. Annoyingly, Bernard whoops a couple of times, although this was more pronounced at the Shoreline performance (31 Jul 01) than here.

Song finishes...

BS: (Whoop!) Thank you. Thank you. Great to be back in Japan after all this time. Jerry, can't hear the top of the kit too well, and can you turn the gate up on my earphones."

The webcast differs from the setlist in that Slow Jam doesn't appear here but later on, after KW1.

Crystal

BS: "All right, from the very old to very new, here's our latest single, called Crystal."

They play the 6+ minute extended version rather than the more abbreviated version played at the West Coast gigs.

BS: "Thank you, thanks a lot."

Regret

BS: "That was all right, wasn't it. It wasn't shit, anyway? And, er, from very old to very new, to just a little bit old, this song's called Regret.

BS: "Make...[can't understand this part]...the quick."

The end of this song gets flubbed somewhat.

BS: "Eh, hank you. Come to think of it, that's not a bad song either."

Love_Vigilantes

Melodica playing, f

BS: "Okay, we right, we right, yeah..."

PH: "You all set, Billy..."

BS: "Billy-o!"

PH: "He's nervous tonight, he's not played in front of big crowds often, so you have to forgive him."

BS: "Okay, let's go"

Song ends with bass feedback, as Bernard 10q's.

Isolation

BS: "Okay, this is a Joy Division song, it's called Isolation"

The song is performed.

BS: "Thank you. Domo Arigato!"

BS: "Ok ok, having a good time? We're having a fucking great time here in Japan, it's a great country. Who said that flattery will get you nowhere? Me."

Hooky says something off-mic.

Your_Silent_Face (labelled KW1, naturally, on the setlist)

BS: "Okay, this is your Silent Face, get the DJ to turn the fucking music down over there, you twat."

Bernard busts out with the melodica! I personally welcome the return of this song to their live set.

And it looks like somebody turns down the vocals on Barney when he says "piss". (part of the 'Why don't you piss off?' lyric). The audience recording is of course unimpeded.

Slow_Jam

BS: "All right, we're gonna play a song...okay, this is a song off our new album called Slow Jam."

Nice feedback at the end.

BS: "Thank you!"

Turn_My_Way

BS: "Okay, this song..next song features Billy. This song features Billy on vocals, and is off our new album, called, eh... what's the new album called, Hooky?"

PH: "Get Ready..heh heh."

BC: "Get Ready..yeah"

[some trading of 'Get Ready's passes between the band members]

BS: "Get ready, get ready, yeah. And it's 'Turn My Way'!"

(at end)

BS: "'ak yew"

PH: "The boy done good!"

Bizarre_Love_Triangle

BS: "Okay, we're gonna now play something that you all know and love...hopefully love. It's called Bizarre Love Triangle."

After the first verse, Hooky yells out "C'mon cheer for Phil!"

Close_Range

BS: "Whoa whoa whoa whoa whoa whoa...I'm wrong again, I'm wrong again... uh...fuckin' hell. ...it takes you out here. When you get to our age..."

PH: "Fuck off..."

BS: "Alright, this is another one off our new album, but you're sick of hearing these new songs you've never heard before... one day believe you me, you will come to love them...it's called Close Range, take that fucking capo off now."

I like this one quite a bit.

BS: "Thank you, thank you. Yes, Roger, I didn't notice that was the wrong one."

Touched_By_The_Hand_Of_God

BS: "Okay, the next one is called Touched By The Hand Of God...and it's about Hooky's bass guitar. There Hooky, a rare compliment, a rare compliment."

PH: "Very rare and few in between, but I fucking loved it!"

(at end)

BS: "You're copied my chord there. Yes, what do you want?"

PH: "The switch to the other [two words] fucking broke that one."

[Not sure what this was about]

True_Faith

BS: "This is...er, True Faith. New version. Hope you like it. We do."

Hooky squeaks and mutters quite a bit during this one. "C'mon, you bastards... for the Viking!" or something like that.

At the end:

BS: "Thank you. Yeah! Let's go for it."

Temptation

BS: "I need my special guitar for this one."

BC: [can't make out what he says, think it starts with 'Let me...']

BS: "Temptation."

He starts out with a 'woo woo' along with the beat, before the opening guitar bit.

They play it. All their Temptations these days feature Barney counting "1, 2, 3, 4!!" before going into the last break.

BS: "Thank you." Guitar chords.

PH: "It's very quiet, isn't it?"

Crowd yells.

PH: "What's the matter, scousers got yer bag?"

Love_Will_Tear_Us_Apart

BS: "Eh, this song is called...ah, I can't remember(?)...it's something about love... Love...Will...Tear...Us...Apart."

They play LWTUA.

Hooky yells "Here we go!" at the 1:24 mark. He also yells out, "Turn up my mic, Andy!" at about 3:30, "Andy" again ten seconds later, and another "Here we go!" at the 3:53 mark.

BS: "Whoahhh...thank you very much, you've been a great audience. See you in sixteen years!" (He laughs when he says this)

I guess Barney had forgotten they played Japan in 1987, which was only 14 years before.

The punters start to chant for New Order...somebody strums a bass... then general clamour...and more chanting...before NO take the stage again.

Encore

Ruined_In_A_Day

BS: "How did you know we were going to do an encore? [noodles on guitar] The lead gui-part...guitar part in this song is very, very difficult, so if we play it out of tune, please bear with me."

Actually, this is a really good version. Nice guitar work, having Corgan and Cunningham around helps.

BS: "Woo! Thank you. I cannot stop saying 'Woo', heh heh. Why do I do that?"

_60__Miles_An_Hour

BS: "Okay, this is eh, a song called 60 Miles An Hour, off our new album called Get Ready."

Initial ascending guitar riff before the sweeping synths preface the track.

BS: "Thank you very much."

PH: "God bless you."

Blue_Monday

BS: "Okay, you might recognize this one. So, I'm not going to tell you the title, so you can decide for yourself which one it is."

Huge cheers when the opening beats kick in, of course.

A couple of whoops and a whistle make their way in before the vocals start. Lots of silliness on stage here, not the least of which was Bernard's freaky dancing.

BS: "Thank you, good night, great to be back in Japan. We really enjoyed it! Thank you."

The maelstorm is Blue Monday continues for a minute more before ending in gigantic bass feedback, followed by Hooky throwing down his instrument and walking offstage.

Announcer: "You were great...we loved it.!"

Then he goes into Japanese...the only phrase I can make out is 'New Order'. Any speakers want to translate?


NO: 31 JUL 01 Shoreline Amphitheatre - Mountain View, CA Area One

I attended this performance. What I most vividly remember was this girl who was doing a very intimate lap dance for her partner, who unfortunately couldn't be persuaded to stay beyond New Order's set (she wanted to stay, he wanted to get busy). The last I saw of this couple was him walking out, with the girl flipping him the bird as she chased after him.

No, I'm not making this up.

Another highlight was the punk with a Low-life shirt, who had scrawled on the back, "Fuck Moby". Ace.

Some reviews...

Subject: (Fac33) Mountain View Show

Sound:

Have to agree with Fernando. The sound was very poor. The levels were definitely set for the bands on after New Order (Outkast and Moby). The difference was so great that on some songs it was almost like comparing AM radio to CD sound quality.

The vocals were set too low until three and a half songs in. With the exception of Hooky's bass, all of the sounds ran together. Couldn't hear Bernard's guitar on many songs (e.g., TF). I was at the bottom/middle of the lawn section. Perhaps the sound was better up close? Kind of doubt that.

The band knew that sounds levels were screwed up, and were constantly (Bernard, especially) pointing to the side stage to make changes (or even requesting changes on the mike during songs). Bernard made a comment after the fourth song -- in the middle of which they adjusted the vocals sound level -- something like "...well, at least half of it didn't sound like shit..."

[Editor's Note: this comment seems to be missing from the CD I have of this gig...nor do I recall him making this comment.]

I've not heard the complete album. I did listen to the sound clips and the downloaded Fuji concert. The sound at the Mountain View concert, especially of the new songs, was, not surprisingly, much poorer than the album clips. But, it was also much worse than the Fuji concert (which was actually pretty good).

[Compared to Reading '98, which I also was fortunate to attend, the sound was on a completely different scale -- not a fair comparison.]

I realize that at a festival with little or no soundcheck time, that it's difficult/impossible to get the sound levels correct. At the same time, though, I wonder. Did the New Order sound at the show help or hurt their chances for being successful again in the U.S.?

Without decent sound levels for the new songs (and even most of the older ones), does it just reinforce the "80's band" label in the U.S.? In my mind, it doesn't, but I'm not the majority.

Song selection:

New Order is known in the U.S. by the masses (i.e., most everyone not in the orchestra section) by five songs: BLT, TF, TBTHOG, Temptation, & BM.

They had to play those songs. The difference in broad audience participation was significantly higher during those songs than all the others. I would've loved to have taken a poll of the audience to see how many people first realized it was "that" New Order when BLT was played.

(LWTUA also got the audience's attention. Along with In a Lonely Place, they were two songs that had good sound balance. Best two songs of the day, IMO.)

Song order:

I was hoping they'd change the order from Liverpool and Fuji. Starting with Atmosphere in a half-filled outdoor amphitheatre with the sun setting just didn't seem right. Whoops didn't help.

Energy level:

Hooky was very enthusiastic. Even hopped off the stage during Blue Monday. Steve and Phil were into it. Bernard was hopping around and seemed very enthusiastic. He also, though, seemed a little peeved about the sound.

The orchestra level audience was very enthusiastic. To the balding guy in the French blue long-sleeve shirt, I hope you drank lots of water afterward. You must of sweated about a gallon of liquid.

Billy Corgan's involvement:

Although it's true he didn't necessarily do a lot on stage, his presence meant a lot. He received very loud/positive recognition when Bernard introduced him and when he lingered on the stage at the end. Even looked like he signed an autograph from the side/front of the stage during a lull in a song.

It's been said before, but his presence will mean a lot in the US market. Turn My Way will get significant airplay, because of, in large part, him. He has a very distinctive voice (whether you like it or not) and the masses will instantly be drawn into at least that song (and perhaps like it and try the whole album).

Atmosphere (not the song):

New Order is not a day-time outdoor band. The difference in atmosphere (along with the sound) of Moby's show was startling. I realize that Moby's been doing his show for a while now -- very rehearsed, highly produced, etc. -- but it had impact (whether you like his music or not).

A light show, a full venue, and darkness to help people focus on the stage (as opposed to talking on their cell-phones & walkie-talkies, commenting on the people walking by, screaming to the ushers for glow-in-the-dark thingys to hang around their neck, etc.) make a world of difference. Even playing one hour later (in the Outkast slot) would have made a BIG difference. But, with a full tour commitment, it was right to have Outkast slotted there.

(Funny side note: They turned on the smoke machine -- IN BROAD DAYLIGHT. Bernard disappeared several times while singing. Not the cool floating haze like Reading '98. Looked like a dust cloud had descended upon him. After a few songs, Bernard said something like, "Turn off the fucking smoke machine. You're killing me.")

All that said, I'm still very glad to have been there and grateful that New Order came back to the U.S. I wish that I could go to the LA event to see if they're able to improve the sound by then. I very much hope they can come back again and tour in some mid-size venues (e.g., Fillmore in SF).

Sarge isn't a 'big bloke' at all. He's about 5'6? But he's mean as f---, suppsedly. Head of security at the Apollo, I believe, and has only ever acted as security for one act before - Barry Manilow! And he's defo not Hooky's brother, just a mate.

4 of my mates managed to get their mugs into the Frisco audience photo in Q magazine but me and the Mrs were to the right of the stage so don't feature. If the cameraman had panned more to the left there was a big X of St George in the audience held aloft by some lads from Slough and Sunderland.

Transcription:

Sound is clear (being sourced from a DAT). Despite my initial report, there are no dropouts in my copy (sorry gaobest!)

BS: "Hello everyone, we're New Order, it's great to be back in the States! [bass chords] Please welcome our guest guitarist tonight, Billy Corgan. Please welcome Phil...Phil Cunningham. Well, you like Joy [Division]?"

(my copy of the gig cuts out after the word 'Joy')

Atmosphere

BS: "This is a song called Atmosphere."

PH: "One Two Three Four"
