This has been kicking around on the web for a bit, hope it's not been posted here....it's a FAIL of such spectacular proportions, I thought I'd share it.
So Peter Hook, bassist for Joy Division & New Order has taken to getting flown around the world for DJ gigs. The sad thing, is that he's not actually DJing, just dancing around and 'tweaking' the EQs. I loved Joy Division, I kind of thought New Order were okay (if a bit poppy), so this upsets me a bit.
Check out this YouTube video and the DJ, and the human in you will cringe.
This is proper twattery.

In hois defense, he is about 76 years old these days.
Haha, I love how he keeps puffing his cheeks like "Phooo this is 'ard work, I'd hand over a kidney for a good sit down"

The BEST thing, is that the CD came free on mixmag and had an actual 'free cd with mixmag' jingle on it. How do you go from Joy Division, to that?!?!?

"Errr, What you doing Hookie?"
"EH? I'M DJin' MATE. The Lights Are Burnin' Brightly For The E'd Up Generation! I'm Feeding The Pulse, Rocking Their Brains, I'm Havin It Mate... Its Goin Off, I'm Fuckin Avin It"
"Right.... only, that's the dimmer switch for the lights... the console's over there..."- ahahahahaha! +1ian

Apparently he responded to these besmirching comments by saying " I don't use headphones because I don't mix very much"
You don't fucking say. See the thing there mate, is that you're miming a MIX CD!

Haha, it's even in his Wikipedia page. That's a shame.
"Since 2002, Peter Hook has begun doing DJ sets, though numerous videos recorded of him live show him doing nothing more than playing a free CD included in Mixmag."- paininvisiblechamber

I saw a similar thing at one of Raniator many varied gigs (well Bar 11, Worcester) http://www.steveranford.co.uk/

here is another one. I love how he pretends to browse his imaginary record crate.
- You actually hear the word "Mixmag" at the start of this I'm sure.Studiospooky
- You do hear that. He's a fucking cunt.DaveO
- It's 'pete tong's future classics' free mixmag cd. He could have at least picked a decent DJ to rip offtoe_knee
- First off in his defense this is a CD Mixing Kit.univers

re: Blog.... Oh Dear. That just about puts the brown coloured icing on the funny smelling cake.

Eye, and whats even worse, he deleted all the comments where people came on to explain why they felt duped by him when he toured, but conveniently left all the ass licking comments.
Put down the coke straw Peter.

I watched these and am incredibly embarassed :/ like that time I went to see DJ yoda I didn't see him change a single record and he played fucking dolly parton working 9-5 every guy there left the dance floor and pretty much didn't return. Apparently his fader knob thingy EQ nonsense makes drum beats ha ha as he is kicking his leg up.
- I would throw a beer bottle at the dj if he played dolly partonsection_014
- That's what Yoda is all about, taking strange/shit songs and putting them in the mix...thats his whole thing!
2manydjs do the same thing and they're one of the biggest acts in the world.... it shows you ignorance if you went to see Yoda and didn't expect that... half the people on here don't have a cluejohnnyrebs

I think he is a genius.
The guy probably gets paid to do that, everyone is dancing what is the big deal? People don't know.. People only care about the name when it comes to Djing, there is usually 5 or 6 people next to the dj booth that knows what's up everyone else is having a great time.
