    New Order's split itself wasn't amicable. Can't always believe what you read from just him or Bernard - read them both and the truth's somewhere in the middle!
    The greatest trick the devil ever pulled was convincing the world that he didn't exist

      I need to read Sumner's book. I like Hooky's disclaimer: "It's the truth, as I saw it."

      He had a negative bluety on a quackhandle and was quadraspazzed on a lifeglug.

      I look forward to your all knowing and likely sarcastic and unhelpful reply.

        I never got to the Hac, despite being only 20 odd miles down the East Lancs, and Liverpool did have Cream.

        (Even that was toppy for a student, and Medication was same venue and it was £1 a bottle!)



        qh
        Cream was good.

        Clockwork Orange is still going if you fancy dropping in to see clubbers in their 40s and 50s.

          One of those iconic clubs I would have love to have gone to along with:

          Stone Roses - Spike Island and Blackpool Ballroom
          Happy Mondays - G Mex

            I asked my parents to go (on my own, without a ticket) to Spike Island. I was 2 months shy of being 15.

            Bizarrely they said no.

              haha - worth a shot though.

              This gig of the roses at Blackpool is incredible. "Manchester we're in the area"

              Reni for me was the pinnacle of cool and one of the greatest drummers ever alongside Clyde Stubblefield

                Yeah, now that's freaky - just loads of people at the start, looking at each other and thinking, god do we all look that old.

                Then having a top night and going home knackered and also slightly relieved that it's bed time.

                  They had a big event at Cheltenham race course last year called Clockstock. The line up looked good as well with dj's like Sneak, Joey Negro & Grooverider.
