Barney's comment of 'if I were an American I would sue someone' just rubs me the wrong way. A few minutes before this he talked about 'working', and during his shift where he is getting paid thousands by many, many people (a few probably American) he goes and says something like this.?. WTF.
Three songs in and he is a grumpy MF and does not look like he even wants to be there.
"Have you ever watched them live before" you may want to ask me... Sure. And we all give them a lot of accolades when half the time they sound like shit.
Just something about that comment makes me say fuck you to him. There is no reason for insults, regardless of whether or not they are American, Chinese, Saudi, Korean, etc. People going to see NO may or may not agree with cultural norms.
And don't get me started on the Isolation 'cover'. Yes - cover. "Do do do do"? WTF. That song is not a happy little jingle. IT'S ISOLATION!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
I trust ALL artists had to deal with the dusty environment.
Just saying... I am a huge NO fan. I'm just shocked and surprised he is still being an asshole after all this time. In England, Americans are sometimes portrayed as people who will sue for anything - He slipped on something and fell over - looked like he was making a joke about that to me? Didn't see it as an insult to be fair? I was there, and i would have been upset too if i fell over a dangerous situation too. I think he got more into after though which was great and positive. New Order sounded great in the tent and visuals wonderful. I was there and pretty close. He didn't seem all that bothered and the show was fantastic. Didn't he do the same thing in Oakland during BLT a few years ago?

Yes, he did from reckless dancing during Crystal... i was there too. I think he tore something in his leg, and wasn't able to get around much on stage at Coachella afterwards.

I believe in that one, he was swimming in the ocean and got bitten by a shark.
...looking forward to seeing them in Santa Barbara and Coachella next week!

I thought it was a great show by NO. Just kind of missed Peter Hook playing the bass. Tom did a great job nonetheless.
I have just a rant. Moronic non-fans with fucking vip passes thinking they are coachella god or something. Just cos you have a vip wrist band doesn't mean you get MORE personal space on the concert floor. Fucking vip pple thinking they are really THAT important.

It's a very Californian Festival, Coachella. Colourful, populated, lush with unforgiving sun, the gentle hum of weed in the air and wealthy LA Hipster kids.
On top of New Order we took in Savages, Hot Chip, Postal Service, show stealers The Selector, Blur, Stone Roses, Violent Femmes & Franz Ferdinand. But the go to stage for modt was the Sahara where EDM pumped out day and night. For us though, the Sahara stage was just the last staging post en route to VIP hospitality (sorry Vince!).
New Order headlined the large Mohave stage, and after Bernard slipped at the start of Regret the set had an edge and steel to it which the crowd picked up on and enjoyed. Maybe fuelled by a day of drinking but from BLT onwards the crowd was moving from front to back.
Strange that the previous time Bernard fell over on stage, was also at a festival - Sweden's Hulfstred in 2002 - and also during Regret.

This excellent, U.S. based source of New Order related news has the acronym S.U.E. Coincidence?

santa barbara was sublime, i believe i counted 12 sound check songs ,including two x your silent face and run wild . all those songs sounded better than the set at coachella . world and i'll stay with you were part of the 18 song set. bernard was totally happy. andres said the vikings had had a great time the night before with the band until 4 am. also ,without the curfew , bernard would have played more songs for us at the best venue possible. awesome show. andres and i spoke to the band at the hotel restaurant . tom gave me a guitar plectrum with magical powers . and they are going to keep writing and touring . the short tour is the way. two days later at coachella i arrived 2 hours too early. heineken thought that the hiphop crowd needed an incessant omnipresent bass thump, as in the car next to one at a signal light. imagine you are by the pool with your boombox set at a nice volume , and 4 other boom boxes nearby are set a bit louder . despite the insult bernard and company pushed past the curfew to get 2 extra songs played. bernard likely felt bad for his fans. he frustratingly said ' it is not just about the volume'. my main memory was the teen in tears, as sigur ros suffered from noise pollution as well. looking back to 1985, riding a bicycle from taunton to hear one band, just one, the headlining echo and the bunnymen, played so gorgeously loud and clear, without competing noise ,and riding back in a downpour could not possibly dampen my spirits. the mud was washed away . if you think coachella is for you, fine . i'll see new order under much better circumstances in austin in july. bernard loved santa barbara. he made the best of a terrible situation at coachella. and when one's favorite humans remember one from a previous time and place there is reason to smile . and andy was beaming in santa barbara. they were fabulous. |
