Joy Division were better.

Enjoyed Peter Hook & The Light performance last Autunm, brilliant gig. (Sorry op), back to thread.

Having seen Joy Division, New Order and PH&TL live, Hooky's current crew are by far the best of the lot. When I saw them, JD were utterly useless - crap sound, Curtis was pissed off with the crowd, Barney's guitar playing was, er, freeform, and the set lasted maybe 40 minutes. New Order - sorry, Barney's voice is just terrible these days, and his in-concert delivery was was never good in the first place. I've seen them live maybe a dozen times, and they're really not what they were

Which brings us to Peter Hook and The Light. OK, he can't deliver lines like Ian Curtis, but Hooky's got his own style and - live at least - he really delivers. I get the fact that the band is effectively a heritage act, but blimey, what an act; an amazing back catalogue and delivered by a proper, hard-working band. They're going to knock out about 50 gigs this year; New Order might manage a handful of festivals.

That’s the thing with Peter Hook, he is a musician seemingly wanting to deliver his music to the audience to the very best of his ability. His band, I agree is as good as they get live on stage. Without doubt will enjoy another of thier gigs soon.
Wrong thread so apologies to all.
