New Order: Elegia (live at Glastonbury 1987)

Not only my first Glastonbury, but the first song from the first set I saw when I arrived on the Friday night. After a hard day doing the last of my mock A levels, no less! In those days under 14s went in free, so half my mates just blagged it and got in for nothing. I think my ticket was something like £35 - which, obviously, you could buy a small Caribbean island with back then.



Can't find all of this online, alas. I know they did a wonderful 'Bizarre Love Triangle', 'Temptation' and a cover of the Velvets' 'Sister Ray' to finish. Amazed by how much Hooky looks like George Michael in this clip.
