tin pan alley was from a Who song

Oh my gosh; what a story! “Hello and goodbye”😭 I’m 43 and I’ve been a fan for 30 years! I’ve seen Peter Hook and New Order. Thanks so much for sharing this story. It was so interesting and moving. I can picture the scene of you talking to them. Ian Curtis is my musical hero. Dead Souls is also my favourite. I went to his resting place in Macclesfield this year. Just me and my boyfriend, a cold, windy day and I said thank you to him for all the music. It was just me and my boyfriend standing there. What a moment! Thanks so much again for telling the story!

It’s a great channel , the other ones you posted were good too

Brilliant Maggie, really interesting. I noted you mentioned that you hadn’t seen the NMTB collage before. It was originally a promotional poster but also given out folded with the 11 track album and the one sided single ”Submission” that Richard Branson had instructed be immediately sent out to counteract the influx of 12 track records that were coming in to England from France. It was packaged with catalogue number ”SPOTS 001” and quite sought after nowadays. Once again, great video, thank you 😀

You must of seen joy division more than most,amazing you got to see them so many times. You must have some extremely envious friends in the states 😊 I feel extremely lucky to have seen them once. Thank god I turned up early enough to see them.Saw wire at Hammersmith the year before as support to the tubes. The place was half empty for them as they were still at the bar. Thanks Stuart

I visited Berlin and went to the apartment block where he and iggy lived

Carter is an unstoppable sex machine

Thank you so much for all these memories... brilliant times long missed... I was a very young UK Punk Rocker, think I was 7 or 8 when I got into it all...

Cool backstage pass!

It's been documented that Nancy's mic was quickly switched off after she started singing.

Fascinating stories! Wish you lived in LA.

You're soooo lucky!!!

Great video, thank you!

Hi Maggie, thanks so much for such a touching video. You shoot from the hip & tell it from the heart, which I love! Tough question , which do you love most JD or SP? You deserve a lot more subscribers & keep up these interesting & heart felt videos! 👍😑xx

You should check out the Punk Rock Museum if you're ever in Las Vegas.

At the same time there was a punk scene in the greater L.A. area in the US . Thats where i got my indoctrination . We had quite a few clubs and there was no shortage of places to see bands. The bands were a bit more diverese in thier sound and look but , there was music practicaly every night..... THOSE WERE GREAT TIMES

I was a US punk in those days but , I thought Debbie was absolutely adorable and cut out every picture i could find of her.

Wow, you saw Joy Division 9 times! I'd like to hear about your experiences with Siouxsie & The Banshess while you were in London (or otherwise). Also, I'd like to hear about your experiences with Kommunity FK and Patrick Mata.

Anything in the analog era > digital era. Sex pistols are eternally fresh.

Fascinating video as always, Maggie. For the record, you saw a Joy Division show the day after I was born...lol. It's great you made this video because for most people, Joy Division is a mythical band they heard after Ian Curtis's death, and his tragic demise coloured everything. You experienced them some 9 times when they were around, when they were a functioning band, and it was different. You've seen them in COLOUR (as many photographs associated with the mystique of the group are in black and white) and you heard them in the same hall. I like how you emphasized that they were a rocking band because not everyone is aware of that. Live recordings make it obvious, they are very intense and often faster than the studio versions, less mechanical without Martin Hannett on board (who did a fantastic job, don't get me wrong). I can"t get tired of "Disorder" live in Paris 1979 for instance. I'm a huge Cure fan so I'm glad you mentioned them and saw them so early on, even if you're not a fan yourself. I hope you heard some of their later albums - "Pornography" or "The Top" aren't exactly just pure pop albums :) I tried to look up the show you may have seen but i'm not sure (they played the Railway Hotel and the Nashville before you saw them with JD). Also, Laurence Tolhurst posted this about the show you attended : "But I understand Peter Hook has a new book out wherein he speaks about a certain 1979 gig that Joy Division supported the Cure at? Well I remember that particular gig too and my memory is somewhat different from Pete's. See we arranged a show at the Marquee club in London for every Sunday for a month (called it a month of Sundays I think) and picked every band that opened for us. Because we, LIKED them and wanted to help them out. Not for any reason other than that."

Jealous.

Wow, what a great video. I saw Joy Division with Buzzcocks too and as you said the crowd definitely weren’t into them and wanted more straightforward punk stuff but I thought they were great! There’s a Joy Division tribute called Transmission who play in the U.K. who are really authentic that are definitely worth seeing if you get the chance. There’s also Koi Division who are a fish themed Joy Division tribute (yeah very absurdist I know!) and do songs like Love Will Snare Us A Carp, haven’t seen them live but check them on UA-cam. Thanks Maggie keep doing these cool videos 🙂

Thank you, for this very touching video. I first heard them on the Sunday night radio program here in Dallas in 1980. I still remember talking about Ian Curtis death at Metamorphosis Records around that time. George Gimarc the DJ talked about it on his show. When I finally saw New Order in 1985 they didn't play any Joy Division, maybe still too painful for them.

The way this lady pronounces 'bollocks' is simply marvellous!!

Joy Division fans are really very special people. New Dawn Fades is one the best songs ever written. We have a lot of favorite bands and songs in common... I am pretty sure that Ian was a great guy. God rests his soul Thanks for your tears!!! ❤

Takes me back great times well done xxxxxx

Dear Maggie, thank you for sharing your lovely memories, I love to hear you talk about your experiences in London, I wish i had seen Joy Division, I was just a little too young, my first show was The Stranglers at Hammersmith Palais, November 17th 1981, age 14, I still remember it like yesterday, I loved the Palais, now sadly gone, PS, Walthamstow is in East London, close to where I live in Plaistow. Please keep sharing your stories, best wishes, David. RIP Ian X

Maggie is the coolest girl in the world

So glad i found your channel. I've really enjoyed your videos, you're a font of knowledge regarding The Pistols and those early punk days. The Pistols were the first band i got into, back in early 77. Finally got to meet Steve and Paul at a Buzzcocks gig in Bolton, December 1980, they'd been playing in Manchester the night before with The Professionals. My claim to fame...Steve Jones gave my a light for my cig😁

What a captivating and lovely story - thank you for sharing. Much love❤

I love your videos, so many amazing little stories. I'm so envious that you saw JD so many times. I love the early Psychedelic Furs, would love to have seen them back then. You had me tearing up watching this video. If I had been in the room with you, I'm sure we both would have been crying. Keep up your brilliant work, and thank you for such great entertainment. 😄

This is a lovely tribute to Ian Curtis Maggie, thank you.

Hello Maggie. Great channel! I saw Joy Division with Buzzcocks at the King Georges Hall in Blackburn Lancashire in 1979, it was a great gig. I was 13 y/o. Unknown Pleasures still sounds brilliant today.

Oh no, I didn't know that Jordan had died! RIP

Strange coincidence... Ian Curtis (singer of Joy Division) died May 18, 1980 by suicide by hanging. Chris Cornell (singer of Soundgarden) died May 18, 2017 by suicide by hanging.

When you see Ian on stage or a rare TV appearance Ian's eyes seem to be in a very dark place,he seems to really live the emotions he sings about.

Excellent video maggie. Was lucky enough to see them in November 78 as a support band. Think it might have been their first London gig. I’m visiting London at the moment,and was up the west end yesterday. Was sitting in a pub having soto eat only to find out it was the old marquee,why was weird but cool. Went to Denmark st convent garden etc. first time I’ve been there for a decade. Shame seeing no Astoria. Would loved to have seen that first pil gig. Thanks Stuart

Great review again . Have to say this was a Northern sound and definitively Manchester . Out of a dour industrial backdrop. Not a London thing .

😭🍀🐎👍🥂🤺🐍

... and here we are, blessed yet again with another healthy dose of tragic celebration & remembrance, encasing a certain entertainment of days of gone by ... always, of course, overflowing with your descriptive memory & endless emotion .. to then, and thankfully so, with utter gratitude from myself, as well as, and I'm quite sure, an observing multitude of many, many more, graciously added & finally saved for our education & enjoyment indeed, on this sure gem of a YooToob channel ... and for so, I, myself, thank ya kindley.

remember...remember...remember... REMEMBER FOREVER...

Oh my goodness! Thank you for your emotional memories. Wish I could have gone back in time to see them (born in 81)

Thanks Maggie, Joy Division were unique and Ian's lyrics were something else. Such a prolific writer. A very sad ending. I read his wife's book, very interesting.

Lovely moving tribute ,Maggie. ❤️

Joy division kept me sane living in redneck Florida during college.

Thank you so much for this video!!! That story you told about meeting them in the bar was priceless. I could tell it was as if was like yesterday, the way you told the story. I really like how emotional you get telling stories about all of the special events you’ve seen. I can tell they come from the heart. Thanks again!!!!

You're so lucky to have seen them. I was a couple of years too young for gigs in 78/79/80.

'Closer' has been my all time favorite album since I first bought it in 1990. Hooky is my favorite musician. And I know a lot of people say it, but it's not New Order without Peter Hook.

Thanks Maggie,another great video 😊

I had the privilege of seeing Joy Division only once, on the Buzzcocks tour, in Glasgow. Once seen, never forgotten. Thanks for the memories, Maggie. R.I.P Ian.
