Just seen New Order do their 'warm-up' for Reading.  Seeing as I'm crap at
reviews, let's just say they were chuffing marvellous.

They played:

Regret
Touched by the hand of God
Isolation
Ceremony
Atmosphere (better than Russ Abbott's version)
Heart and soul
Paradise
Confusion
Bizarre Love Triangle (nice!)
True faith (dodgy ravey intro taken off an remix so I'm told)
Temptation
Blue Monday
Run2
Love will tear us apart
Lonely place

I expect Reading will be more of a greatest hits set.  Now if I'd only
bought some Joy Division before I went....
