New Order

[gray]

Here's a video of New Order doing their old Joy Division song "Love Will Tear Us Apart", with Bernard Sumner playing a 360. Can't tell if it's a 12 or not. My apologies if this has been on here before.

I'm at work (can't check youtube!) but if I remember correctly it's a new-style 360/12FG with hi-gains. I saw some of that Love Will Tear Us Apart footage a while ago - glad to see they're still including some Joy Division material in their set. Too bad Peter Hook never bothered to buy a real Rickenbacker once he dispensed with his old Hondo copy!

They actually didn't include any JD up until the late 90's, I believe. I found out they were playing those songs again about two years ago, maybe. Too bad Peter Hook won't even play with them right now. But I think he'll be back.

Though Hooky's not with the band right now, it should be noted that it is a clean shaven Hooky playing bass in the video. I hope he changes his mind and decides to rejoin the group. I love the way he plays bass.

Bernard Summers with a Ric 360/12. Excellent!

I saw New Order play Hyde Park about 2 years ago and it was one of the most amazing gig experiances of my life.

They're in my top 3 bands of all time but I think even they would admit that live, they are either amazing or they...well - you saw.

It is most definately a 12 string new-ish 360. Unfortunately he only used it for LWTUA when I saw them, preferring instead to use some ugly one pickup SG for the majority of their set.
