During ADE Peter Hook is invited to tell us something about inspiration, making music and his book. But who is this guy, what has he done? Well, he was the bass and keyboard player of the group that made the best selling 12” ever: Blue Monday. Well, that should ring a bell, we’re all electronic music lovers right?

Off c...ourse we are talking about the band New Order. And before that, he was part bassist of Joy Division. And they released their first EP way back in 1979, which means he has been around for 30 years. That should give some cool and interesting anecdotes. Especially about the Haçienda, that also is the subject of his book: The Haçienda, how not to run a club?

I havent any copies but I can remember what was in there !!!! I knew Tony W quite well too - he lived in our village (when I lived up North) and I have had a few jars with him in our local from time to time......I had my pass from the Hac and I have tried to locate it lately but havent come across it yet.....I think I might have lost it when I moved down to Cornwall (big move!) Shame really but memories are all up there still - never did any substances so can remember everything!!!!!!
