‘It was lovely to see Mike Johnson here. He’d moved and opened a studio in Liverpool. We ended up completely trashed afterwards in the Marriott hotel in a room with Bobby Gillespie and an American designer of Xboxes who I’d picked up in the bar. The most hilarious thing I’ve ever seen was Bobby trying to talk to this geezer in a very drunken broad Scottish accent. The guy didn’t understand a word and Bobby ended up chasing him out of the room and down the corridor. Shame. I’d been hoping for a free Xbox.’
28 July 2001
New Order play Fuji Rock Festival, Japan.
‘When we arrived we were mobbed and it was great to be back. On the bus from the airport to Tokyo everyone was buzzing with tiredness and excitement, an almost hysterical atmosphere. Then after a while someone went, “Where’s Barney?” We then noticed he wasn’t aboard. Shit. We drove back to the airport and there he was sat on a bench outside, face like thunder. The door opened and he got on and sat down without a word. For the whole of the two-hour trip to Tokyo no one spoke. Turned out he’d wandered off for a piss, not told anyone, and we’d left without him.
‘Neil Young was on the same bill on the bigger stage. He started playing before us in front of a huge audience, but as soon as we went on they all deserted him and came running down to us. It was a wonderful moment to see, all these people fucking bombing down the hill to see us. It was, “Wow, we’re back. Sorry, Neil.” We had actually seen him on the bullet train on the way and Barney tried to get me to say hello, but I was too starstruck. He is one of my all-time musical heroes, and it’s a bubble I do not want to burst.’
New Order play Shoreline Amphitheatre, Mountain View, San Francisco, with Moby and Outkast.
‘Billy Corgan had got me through my virus, and on “Your Silent Face” where I don’t come in for about two minutes I started wobbling, so I thought, I’ll just have a walk off stage and have a sit down for a minute. That was when I came into my “walking about in the audience” phase. Barney didn’t notice. He never noticed anything. You could have died onstage and he wouldn’t have noticed – I just walked back onstage for when the bass came in. I was getting to be a bit of a nomad.’
2 August 2001
New Order play Thunderbird Stadium, Vancouver, with Moby and Outkast.
3 August 2001
New Order play Gorge Amphitheatre, Gorge, Seattle, with Moby and Outkast.
‘This was quite a trip and only possible by small private plane. Barney was so late we went without him and he came much later, saying, “It’s too early to go to a gig.”
‘We arrived at this tiny airport in the middle of nowhere but it still had a customs post and we were taken in to meet this grizzled old customs guy in his office. On the wall he had a noticeboard full of pictures of Mexicans in some amazing hiding places in cars and vans, next to piles of drugs, obviously some of his many captures, but at the bottom in the corner was a picture of him with Mother Teresa. Seeing this, Coatesy pipes up with, “Blooming hell, how much drugs was she carrying?” resulting in a resounding silence in the room, broken only by the sound of this customs guy unclipping his gun and putting his hand on the handle. “Sorry,” gulped Coatesy, to this obviously very religious man. “Get the hell out of my office,” he growled in response.
‘A beautiful location for this gig, but we were again blown off stage by Outkast. Barney managed to upset Roger Lyons before saying to Andy Robinson, “Why didn’t we get here earlier? This place is beautiful.” ’
5 August 2001
New Order play Glen Helen Blockbuster Pavilion, Devore, Los Angeles, with Moby and Outkast.
‘Before this gig we were invited to the Adidas store in LA. I was getting grief off Becky, who wanted me to come back to the hotel, but the Adidas PR woman kept grabbing me and asking me to choose something from their wonderful new range. In a hurry, and very exasperated, I said, “Listen, love, why don’t you just get me the most expensive thing in the shop?” thinking, That will get rid of her! But thirty seconds later she appeared again saying, “Here, Mr Hook, it’s a limited-edition Adidas watch, one of only fifty made, $2000!” I just grabbed it off her like the spoilt, obnoxious rock star I was and legged it.’

‘In the video the fake band were called the Killers, which a young Brandon Flowers from Las Vegas thought very appropriate for his new group. I must admit I didn’t know that Barney had already released a version of the song with Corvin Dalek via Mark Reeder on a German label called Mastermind for Success. I was very surprised. I had no idea. We went to the video shoot and I suggested to Alan Parkes from London Records, “What if we go on and pull their instruments off them? Wouldn’t that be a better ending?”
‘ “No,” he said.’

‘We dedicated the album to Rob, it seemed only fitting. It had been his idea to get back together, and it was strange doing an album without him. Peter Saville was fascinated that the model he’d picked for the cover was actually a film-maker herself, and a very talented one at that, Nicolette (Coco) Krebitz. We were very careful with the review copies for the album, and each one was watermarked with an audio serial number by Warners. They had a computer program that analysed the audio sample and could tell you who had been sent that particular piece of music. The power of the internet and illegal downloading was becoming a huge problem and this was thought to be an ideal deterrent. It wasn’t. Our record was uploaded on the internet a long time before the release date, losing us unknown amounts of sales. Warners tracked it and found it was a Rolling Stone journalist’s listening copy. They even had his name. Barney was livid, wanting to prosecute the guy immediately, but on reflection Warners thought better of it. I guess they needed Rolling Stone. Our sales on Get Ready would be about 300,000 worldwide. Republic sold three million. Warners reckoned that drop was entirely due to illegal file-sharing.’

‘A very spirited performance, this one, very confident, and one of our best TV appearances in my estimation. Bizarrely, Ryan Adams was on the show and just as we were about to start a number shouted, “I lost my virginity listening to Peter Hook’s Revenge album.” Well, Ryan, I’m glad it helped.
