thanks for the add,maybe you'll drop by one sunday for an hour of retro. next sunday will be a tribute to Ian Curtis who took his life 28 years to the very day,so i'd like to honour the guy and his music by including a big chunk of Joy Division and including a few of the bands which either supported or were supported by Joy Division.i know some people are accusing the media of Joy Division 'overkill' with much attention over the last couple of years,but here the music will do the talking,reminding us of an era of creative energy. all the best for the coming week!
