HOOKY: SETTING THE RECORD STRAIGHT
BGM meets Peter Hook at the Forum in Kentish Town, London, before a sold out show with his band, the Light, with whom Hooky is currently on tour playing the entirety of New Order’s 1987 album Substance and 1988’s Joy Division compilation of the same name. He looks trim, relaxed and ready to talk about his new book, Substance: Inside New Order, which hit stores in October. During our interview, my inner thirteen year-old superfan escapes several times, and while bass is obviously the mainstay of our conversation, I have to ask him if there’s any hope of an original New Order line-up reunion despite a falling-out and lawsuit between Hook and the other members, Gillian Morris, Stephen Morris and Bernard Sumner. Read on and find out.
