    Of course it’s not the same,Ian Curtis was a one off genius with a very distinctive voice. Can’t people just appreciate the fact that Hooky is playing this to an audience that still loves to hear this classic? It’s not like he is chasing glory here bearing in mind he played on the original. UP THE SIKMEN!

    What I just love about this performance is his crusty seasoned voice, and the relentlessness, which changes the feel of the song, in a very good way. This is not the slip-the-knot-over-your-neck of the original (which is and will always be 100% awesome), this is endurance, however torn apart. When the audience shouts the chorus even louder, all the feels are firing.

    I don't care if some people say Hook&TheLight is just a lame cover band, that Hooky is a bad singer and so on...
    These lads carry on the legacy of Joy Divison AND New Order, their tone is exactly what made fans like me fall in love with the songs in the first place.
    They play their hearts out on stage, always demonstrating their passion for what they're doing - and we fans pay them back with the immense applause and cheering because we are just as thrilled by their music and performance.
    They might have a smaller audience than New Order, but nonetheless they manage to deliver more and most importantly higher quality content ( When I see that Tom Chapman plays a FENDER bass for songs like ,,The Perfect Kiss" I know they don't really care about the feeling/vibe of their songs). Each song feels so fresh and new when played live, but the spirit of the song never gets lost, which is essential - at least for me.
    And last but not least the prices: I (sadly) only have been at one Hooky gig in my life, which is due to my tender age of 17, but for the Strasbourg gig three months ago I payed 30€.
    30€ for almost three hours of absolutely gorgeous music. Best deal of my life if you ask me.
    And now I've bought a ticket for Groningen in September and guess what it cost me: 28€!
    These guys play incredible music, know how to interact with their fans and demand affordable prices for their gigs. Do I need to list more reasons why Hook&TheLight is incredible?
    No, I thought so😂.
    By the way, great live version of Lwtua - though I doubt that this song can sound worse than good. Timeless classic!

      I have read some similar stuff about Hooky but generally most of what you read about his live shows is very positive. Having seen both NO and PH live my personal opinion is PH sounds better live, more raw power, especially the JD tracks, whereas NO look better with their huge graphics/light show. Loved both and love both JD/NO too. Great post !!!

      I know, I know. I`m more than late to the show. I`m 37 years old and started listening to Joy Division in May 2020 but oh boy I can tell you! There wasn`t any single day since then where I haven`t been listening to them. They instantly became one of my most favourite bands (along with Pink Floyd) and I just can`t stop loving them and their music. I think I´m somewhat addicted to them and I can understand and feel Ian Curtis pain, as I´m struggling with depression myself. Joy Division mean so incredibly much to me.
      Going to see Peter Hook & The Light next month in Germany and I`m SOOOOOOOOO excited, think I`ll cry all the time just because I`ll be so happy to hear this beautiful music, which I thought would never happen! OMG.

    Metro is a small venue of 1100 capacity.
    So I saw the band up close...
    Didn't realize he filled a much larger stadium few weeks prior. Amazing!

      Same at Milwaukee’s Pabst Theatre a few days after Metro. Great to be able to get up close.

    I saw these guys last year at Hammersmith Apollo and the previous year at Brixton Academy. Hooky and the boys always put on one hell of a show. Takes me right back to 1980 when I first heard Unknown Pleasures, and I thought "Wow, this is dark and moody". Actually, I think my exact thought was "Bloody hell, this is depressing", but pretty soon I couldn't get enough of it 😆
