Featured Review

New Order lived up to everything that you would expect a band of that caliber to perform at. They performed all their popular songs including a fair proportion of Joy Division songs. The encore featured 2 Joy Division songs with an image of Ian Curtis. Nice to see them back in Toronto and hope they come back to Toronto more often.

Amazing venue. Found a location where there weren't any people in our way. The band was amazing although at times it was hard to hear them. Amazing energy from the stage.

I drove 4 hours to see New Order after missing their sold out local show. It was worth every minute spent in traffic to see them. I have been a long time fan and was impressed with their sound, energy and showmanship.

New Order put on a great show at the Santa Barbara bowl. The place itself inspires artists bringing out the best in them. Bernard said he wants to live in SB.
Only problem is the 10.00pm curfew.

Johnny Marr opened. He played a few Smiths hits and most of his new album. I was surprised that he could sing as well as he did, but the band would have sounded better with a professional singer. Marr seemed nervous and uncomfortable. He is a great sideman, but not a frontman.

New Order came onstage and played a couple of mediocre songs I didn't know, before they got into the hits. It took a while for them to warm up and they were not really rockin until about halfway through the set. Like Johnny Marr, the singer was below average and his voice was often lost in the mix. Both bands sounded best during the instrumental parts. But, New Order had an excellent light show that helped to bring back the golden age of new wave disco.

I saw New Order in 1989. I am pleased to say that they are back. This time, they played the fabulous Santa Barbara Bowl... one of the most impressive venues in this country. NO played a number of tribute hymns to Joy Division, which were welcome. My only caveat is the lack of new material, which concerns me a bit. Overall, though, I had a great time. In some ways, NO has improved with age. A lot of news has been made about the loss of Peter Hook. However, his absence in no way affected the performance. In my opinion it's time to move forward and see what's out there...

BTW, Johnny Marr was great too. The Smith tunes brought back a lot of fond memories. Johnny has aged gracefully.

So Peter Hook is missing from the new line up but Jillian's back!. Great set list - mix of the great old stuff and some of the new dance-y stuff. True Faith is still my all time favorite and they delivered a spectacular performance.

They sounded better than the 1989 Irvine Meadows concert the last time I saw them.

I drove 2 1/2 hours to see New Order in Santa Barbara as opposed to driving 50 minutes to see them in Coachella. New Order is a band that is near and dear to my heart. Their music brings back a flood of memories from high school. However, in my honest opinion, the sound was lacking quality when they opened (with "Chrystal"). The sound got better as they proceeded to play the second song. Although I enjoyed hearing their music live, it wasn't a great visual show. They just stood there and played. They played most of their strong singles.
