Despite a few other song titles (Touched by the Hand of God, True Faith, Salvation, etc.), religion is rarely a subject dealt with by New Order (Sunrise, Run Wild and, arguably, Love Vigilantes come to mind). So I was a little surprised to see the April dates described as "headline shows for Easter" on their site.

Now, with the announcement of this show in the UAE (a primarily Muslim region), the dates are being described as an Easter Tour.

Seems a bit odd...

Another review (PressReader) rips Bernard's vocal performance.

It doesn't go through each track but does state that the set did include Restless.

Dubious Dubai...

I guess this may be a bit like shooting fish in a barrel, but I'm not inclined to disagree with the comments on Bernard's vocals, although admittedly I wasn't at the gig.
I think reviewers (and perhaps forumites, too) in recent years have been overly kind about his live vocals, perhaps simply because NO are still here and still doing something interesting.
At the 2015 Brixton gig (first night) I couldn't help thinking Bernard was overdoing the "crooning" and was often late to the next line of the song.
Is he listening to his own guide vocals on those earphones? Does he think we can hear those, and it doesn't matter if he's lingering too long on one line?
It seems to be something from recent years, and it bugs me.

Someone put a pic of the setlist on Twitter.

SOS.

Encore was listed as LWTUA / Superheated though so I guess Decades was a late entry?
