PETER HOOK AND THE LIGHT IN CONCERT:

Joy Division and New Order bassist Peter Hook carries on the legacy of those legendary bands in 2014 with the Light, thrilling fans with end-to-end performances of seminal albums from their collective discography. Whether tearing through New Order's Power, Corruption, and Lies or ruminating on Joy Division's Unknown Pleasures,  Hook and the Light are never short on energy, sating fans with epic three hour sets of classics like "Age of Consent" and "Love Will Tear Us Apart." The band impressed even the staunchest New Order loyalists on tour in 2013, building excitement for another round of North American dates in 2014.

BACKGROUND SNAPSHOT:

Born in Manchester, England, Peter Hook formed Joy Division with Bernard Sumner in the late '70s after the two were inspired by the anyone-can-do-it ethos of a Sex Pistols concert they attended. After several epochal post-punk releases, frontman Ian Singer committed suicide, leaving the rest of the band to press on as New Order. With former guitarist/keyboardist Sumner assuming vocal duties under the new moniker, New Order made their album debut in 1981 with Movement, breaking from the gravity of their previous work with buoyant tracks like "Dreams Never End." 1983 follow-up Power, Corruption & Lies really broke the mold, exploring a fusion of rock and early techno that brought them international fame and influenced much of the decade's ensuing music. In 2010, Hook put together the Light, continuing to thrill fans with end-to-end performances of classic albums from the Joy Division/New Order discography.

FANS WHO BOUGHT TICKETS SAY:

" Great night out for Joy Division and New Order fans -- Peter Hook is having a lot of fun and so is the crowd."

"Peter Hook is the man!! He still has not slowed down at his age, three hour show and it was amazing!"

"... I knew that they would be playing two of New Order's albums: Power, Corruption and Lies and Movement, but the big surprise came when they opened up w/ a set from Joy Division, it was so awesome!"

  • So brilliant!

    by TraciP on 9/23/24Hollywood Palladium - HollywoodRating: 5 out of 5

    We loved our experience. Peter Hook was phenomenal! So much better than when we seen New Order! Also it was cool he payed for so long. So many great songs!!!

  • Venue was horrible.

    by Pacific7174 on 9/23/24Hollywood Palladium - HollywoodRating: 5 out of 5

    Venue was a total waste. Music sounded absolutely rubbish. Waste of money.

  • HIGHLY RECOMMEND

    by Big Al on 9/23/24House of Blues Dallas - DallasRating: 5 out of 5

    What a fantastic show!! Peter Hook (Hooky) is the heart and soul of New Order and knows what the audience wants! This show they played the Substance album start to finish (arguably, New Order’s best album), then he played Joy Division’s entire album. I had to pinch myself several times during the show just feeling like it was one of the best I’ve ever seen! If you’re a fan of these bands, go see Peter Hook and the Light!! Highly recommend!!!

  • Great show

    by Dave Deluxe on 9/22/24The Van Buren - PhoenixRating: 5 out of 5

    How can you go wrong with songs by Joy Division, New Order and the energy of Peter Hook?

  • Great band terrible sound system

    by Pyro on 9/21/24Humphreys Concerts By the Bay - San DiegoRating: 3 out of 5

    Peter Hook was great, but sound mix was not. Many times one instrument completely drowned out the others. Overall it wasn't very loud. I could hear people two rows behind me talking. This is the 3rd show I have been to at this venue where the sound system was off. Probably won't come back.

  • Awesome show

    by Marie AZ on 9/21/24The Van Buren - PhoenixRating: 5 out of 5

    This was such a good concert. I loved it! I really love New Order. They are one of my favorite bands and I thought it was so great that they played the whole entire Substance album. That’s one of my favorites :-). They also played a whole bunch of Joy Division music.. If you are a New Order fan. I definitely recommend this.

    by Stephen Strange on 9/20/24The Van Buren - PhoenixRating: 4 out of 5

    The Peter Hook & the light show was really good! The only complaint was it was too hot inside the venue

  • OUTSTANDING!!!

    by Jenny on 9/20/24The Van Buren - PhoenixRating: 5 out of 5

    Great sound. You could see the stage from pretty much anywhere. One of the best concerts I’ve ever been to.

  • Good and bad

    by Jefe on 9/20/24The Van Buren - PhoenixRating: 3 out of 5

    Peter Hook put on a great show, albeit way too loud. It's a good thing I had hearing protection. However, I had serious issues with the venue where I saw him, the Van Buren in Phoenix. I will never see another show there again. From the moment I got there I was forced to use the venue's hearing protection for my daughter (we brought our own) or we couldn't attend. As her parent, it's my job to look out for her. I put her on my shoulders during the show so she could see and I was instantly swarmed by multiple staff telling me to put her down or be kicked out. Then I was nearly kicked out again for sitting on the back of a couch with her so she could see. Lastly, we stepped outside for break and were standing a few feet from the doors. I was asked to move away from the doors so that I wouldn't be hit by the doors. Talk about Big Brother on steroids. I have never experienced this kind of treatment at any other venue I've ever been to and I will never go back there.

  • Amazing Performance, perfection!

    by Leo O. on 9/20/24House of Blues Dallas - DallasRating: 5 out of 5

    First time i see Peter Hook live, as a fan of New Order for many years, this was even better than the Band he left in 2007, this interpretation of New Order and Joy Division sounded perfect, like studio versions, Peter Hook is one of a kind, his interpretation and his band are a must see! Thank you Peter Hook and The Light!!!

  • Pure Joy

    by Concert geek on 9/20/24The Van Buren - PhoenixRating: 5 out of 5

    I’m guessing I learned about Joy Division 20 years after Ian’s death but now being a fan, his untimely death could be more sad than any. Crazy how good they have been but I digress. The show was great. The New Order set got off to a great start, a little slow in the middle and finished strong. The Joy Division set was awesome all the through. “Transmission”, my highlight, had me jumping and no surprise, the closer, “Love will tear us apart” was incredible.

  • meh

    by San Diego 619 on 9/19/24Humphreys Concerts By the Bay - San DiegoRating: 1 out of 5

    While the band itself was great, the sound mix was probably the worst I've ever heard. you couldn't hear the vocals. or you couldnt hear the synth. or you couldnt hear the bass guitar. or you couldn't hear the guitars. people in my section (C) left midway thru the first set because of this. after intermission it got incrementally better, but overall mix was quiet and awful.

  • Hooked on Hook

    by Pancho Thomas on 9/19/24Humphreys Concerts By the Bay - San DiegoRating: 4 out of 5

    it has been a while since i last heard the band live, this was my daughter first concert and i decided the venue was the perfect spot for it, we loved and danced til it ended. the band did great playing both albums and the performance of Peter was great....

  • Amazing

    by Mel2002 on 9/19/24Humphreys Concerts By the Bay - San DiegoRating: 5 out of 5

    The show was awesome and the venue was perfect! He played so many songs from joy division and new order! I hope he returns to the same venue next year!!!

  • PETER HOOK & THE LIGHT

    by CSE84 on 9/19/24House of Blues Dallas - DallasRating: 5 out of 5

    Fantastic show, If you are a Joy Division/New Order fan a must! Peter Hook & the Light give it all to the fans. You will never be disappointed. HOB Dallas is a great venue for that cozy club feeling.

  • Excellent Concert

    by Philter on 9/18/24House of Blues Dallas - DallasRating: 5 out of 5

    Great opportunity to see these iconic songs performed by Peter Hook, one of their creators. Not to be missed!

  • A Great Show

    by Gerda on 9/17/24House of Blues Dallas - DallasRating: 5 out of 5

    Great music. Great sound. Great view from almost anywhere.

  • Too Much Like Watching a Cover Band

    by Peter Hook and the Light on 9/17/24House of Blues Dallas - DallasRating: 2 out of 5

    Just not an authentic experience for New Order and Joy Division fans. Go in with lower expectations and you will be fine. Don't care for Peter's vocals. His bass playing is beyond approach. The renditions of Ceremony sent a chill up my spine, but many songs felts like watching a cover band. As close as I will get in my life time to experiencing Joy Division, but somewhat unsatisfying.

  • Great show!

    by DJ on 9/17/24House of Blues Dallas - DallasRating: 5 out of 5

    I strongly recommend any Joy Division or New Order fan to see them.
