For the first time in seven years, U.K. post-punk pioneers New Order will return to North America for a string of shows this October. The seven-date tour kicks off on October 5th at San Francisco's Oakland Fox Theatre and swings through Los Angeles, Denver, Dallas, New York City, Chicago and Toronto.
"We’ve been having such a great time together this year, playing shows all over Europe, and we're all really excited to be playing America again," says singer Bernard Sumner, referring to the group's recent festival dates and sold-out U.K. tour. "We have so many friends and fans there we can't wait to get back!"
The trek will also mark New Order's first stateside run without original bassist Peter Hook, who left the band in 2007 and was replaced by Tom Chapman.
The group's last stateside show was back in May 2005 at NYC's Hammerstein Ballroom. Their Toronto date marks the group's first concert in Canada since 2001.

10/12 Dallas - Palladium

i just wanted it to be dark out when they played. them being the first act i saw that day, sitting in the grass, sober, in the late afternoon? i felt like i was at a county fair instead of one of the biggest dance music festivals in the world. :-/ |
