I saw them last week in Toronto.  They played a few tunes from 'Low Life'
and quite a few from Power Corruption and Lies.  Wasn't as good as OMD's
tour.  The only members that got into anything were the bass player and
the drummer.  The female keyboard player seemed to playing a Disney automaton.
The lead singer seemed generally bored with things... Don't know their
names, they never put that info on the albums!  They really need to lighten
up!!

Almost seemed they didn't want to do an encore, the mercury vapor lights
in the hangar we watched them in were almost up to full brightness when
a stage hand started loading some floppies up for an encore.

Bottom line, if you are real hardcore New Order fan see it, but it wouldn't
convince anyone to be one if they weren't one to start.
