New Order - Wireless Friday 24th June

[big screen satellite]

this gig really rocked - despite technical problems, and the weather, which considering it was midsummer's day stunk...( a bit like the Finsbury Park gig a couple of years back...does it always rain on the Manchester band??)

any one else go to Hyde Park...or catch them at Glasto...??

i saw the footage on BBC 3 which was great

New Order will never ever get boring to watch Live in my opinion...Temptation, at Hyde Park was especially fantastic...

i was bang down the front moshing with loads of 30-40 somethings...one of the most civilised mosh events ever, everyone was pulling each other up making sure no one got trampled whilst at the same time whacking each other and pushing all over the place - it was awesome....

nearly caught Barney's plectrum at the end of the night it hit me on the shoulder and then twatted some bloke in the eye...it got lost in the mud...

a very sweaty and exhillarating perfomance..was made all the better for it being my birthday, meeting up with some friends who live locally but who we only EVER see at New Order gigs...and staying in London so that we could go out and get pissed afterwards...a great Night, thanks to Barney Hooky, Steve & the New Bloke...
