Peter Hook, FAKE DJ! 7474 Responses

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.

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"

"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..."

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 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.
