(by Dawn Reed) So we all have that favorite song right? You know, the one that stays at the top of your brains list and won't budge to the dismay of all the newer bands you eventually get into? And if it's a classic B-side, to be able to hear it live by some of the original performers... ayyy, consider that starship boarded, as tomorrow night Peter Hook and the Light are hitting the stage at the 9:30 Club in DC, and I am so there! Hook, one of the founding members of the late 70's post-punk Manchester band Joy Division, has been touring the world to present a live performance of their second/final album Closer (released 1980) along with some other surprise tracks that may or may not have been on some remasters...!!!
The resurgence started last May when his band played Joy Division's first album Unknown Pleasures at the Factory Club in Manchester, and then took the show throughout Europe, Australia, and the US.
Tickets are going fast for the 9:30 Club show here. And if you're not in the DC area, check below for dates that might be closer to you!
