New Pet Shop Order Boys

[Dog]

Nice to have some new music, however slim. Sounds like a little on tour iPad sketch Chris has knocked up. Can we unofficially christen it “Seattle”?

New Order’s California Dreamin sounds a bit ropey though. And a cliched idea.

It sounds unrehearsed, badly thought through and out-of-tune. Would have Fitted in perfectly to every New Order gig from 1981 to 1989 then!

[One of the crowd]

It’s just a demo for a video

Nothing to get overly excited about or lose your shit over

Nickname will say “it’s no suburbia is it?”

I like the demo. At first i thought it was new order song.

[Dog]

So that’s the tour over.

So what do we expect over the next few months?

Some new material in early 2023 would be great …. Not expecting a new album but an EP that they can drop into their remaining Dreamworld dates could be a possibility

[Disco.]

A new album Spring 24.

I would love to see a new EP or any new material for that matter, but highly doubt they would "drop" it into the remaining Dreamworld dates as they are specifically playing the Hits on this tour. That said, a refresh to include songs not played so far like Miracles, DJCulture, Flamboyant etc would be most welcome..

What do expect against what we will actually get?
What we expect:-

Parlaphone to release 12'' box sets of each album ala Depeche Mode over the next 12 months starting with a 10x12" box set of Please followed by a 10x12" box set of Actually in Spring 2023. A New EP consisting of two new tracks and two "Dreamworld" arrangements of past hits release just before the second leg of Dreamworld.

What we will actually get?
We will get nothing. Off the back of a six month tour they'll take the rest of the year off. Back to rehearsals in late Jan early Feb, then the next round of Dreamworld gigs. That takes us to late August 2023, might get news of a new album in September with release of said album by Spring 2024. Got more chance of New Order making a new album!!!

I like the demo. At first i thought it was new order song.

It is a little reminiscent of Video 586 by Neworder but always nice to hear any new PSB.

I hope these dates are true! I’ll definitely go to Melbourne, Sydney and Brisbane.

Hey all, apologies if this has already been mentioned here, but was there a programme for this tour. I usually buy a copy from the official site but can only see clothing, posters etc.
Thank you!
