Joy Division are one of the best bands ever, New Order are just cack.

Great show. Tony Wilson is an absolute legend - loved that bit where he said "Boomtown Rats - Feck off!"

was it given a catalogue listing? or is FAC501 the final act?

What did you think if Ian Curtis's 'Dancing' ? ! ::::::lol::::::

I watched it, it was OK. Nothing new in it though.

 

PS Anthony H was related to my gran and his son's a Wanderers fan.
