I, in general, like the group quite a bit, but don't care particularly about their latter day output one way or the other - not terrible, but it hasn't moved me. So, although I'm not sure how much pathos it will inspire, New Order are apparently finis. Here's a link to a blog that's posted a recording of their last show: http://tastetastetaste.blogspot.com/

I haven't downloaded it, so I can't personally vouch for its quality, though it looks pretty intriguing...

Oh, they've broken up again? We'll see how long it lasts this time. These old bands can't resist going back to the well every few years to cash in again.

But yes, that's a tasty-looking setlist--gonna have to check it out.

Yes, many thanks for the link...I, too, have my doubts about the breakup...their pattern since '89 has been to put out an album every six years or so and then disperse, so what makes this time so much more definite?

Do they finally have enough money this time? Bet they blow it all in four years, so watch for the comeback album in 2011 or so.

Right, I'm off to write my Christmas cards. Is this the drinking thread? I may drink a nice cup of hazelnut coffee.

Well done on getting to 1000 Kurt.

Oh, just one more so I can sign off for the day on 950. I too promise to write less shit when I pass 1000.

Well, technically you're really ahead of me as you registered a month later. But of course you've been a participant in this board a lot longer. Cheers, Padraig...enjoy that coffee!

Two to go. Two more flippant replies, or should I try to post something of substance? With my luck, Jonathan will close down this board before I get to 1,000. I wouldn't blame him.
