Showing my age here as well, or the fact that I am a complete music dork:

Did you know that Peter Hook (Joy Division/New Order bass player, and a huge influence) started a band in the '80's called Revenge? Don't know why I remember this crap, but back when Revenge released its first album I just happened to be at the post office with the GM of the local college radio station, who was picking up the promos for the week. One of the albums was a Revenge album. He gave it to me, and, IIRC, I listened to it once and then sold it.

Still love Joy Division/New Order, though.

I'll have to check out She Want Revenge sometime.

On a side note, it's funny how rock music seems to regurgitate itself every 20 years or so. Stuff that's popular now, such as Franz Ferdinand, Killers, Interpol etc. reminds me so much of Echo and the Bunnymen, Chameleons, Bauhaus, et al.

Yup, I'm getting old................
