He is beating the audience into submission. I find it odd that there are music stands on stage. That was written out? What, you can't remember one chord? No one cracked a smile, so mission accomplished.
Adore the grunge Hooky and his band bring to this song - pure joy. Have now seen them live seven times with another three booked. Can't recommend enough for Joy Division/New Order fans to see PH&TL live if you get the opportunity :)
This is so authentic to the recorded versions. When you listen to a few more of his live tracks, you can tell... He's actually a really good singer, he's just being super faithful to the original sound - for both Bernard and Ian. Frankly, he's doing a better Bernard impression than even Bernard can pull off these days.
J’ai 76 ans. I am 76. I live in Brittany. Je vis en BRETAGNE. POUR MOI, Peter HOOK est un admirable musicien. For me, Peter Hook is a great bass player. I saw him in Nantes, five year ago.
New Order music is almost same between PH&TL and NO. But vocals sucks now. Listening to Bernard is always good but nowadays he couldn't hit some notes. Peter's voice is only for Joy Division songs. He may sing and hit notes of a few New Order songs properly but that's just a cover. But again, the music and all instruments are all perfect for both bands.
Saw them with a friend at Rochester castle earlier this month they were musicaly brilliant but its time he gave up the vocals crowd went nuts tho when they played thus
Interesting to see how Peter Hook and the light is a much better version of new order than new order, have you guys seen the latest version of this song done by NO?
Thanks Lensflare & Larsen - Pure joy!! Grateful Peter Hook formed his own band. As a fan of over 42 years and regularly (daily) listen to their music, I am thrilled Peter Hook & the Light bring back & deliver Joy Division/New Order songs in an authentic, raw, and perfect way!!! Ian would be thrilled. I've seen them twice, booked again another three times - just love them.
Never understood why guitarists and bassists hold there instruments so low . It is not conducive to comfortable playing ! Also you can’t play difficult material if you hold your guitar that low ! I know they think it is cool !
