Re: joy division

That's very helpful thanks, however the video you are talking about
and the one i am talking about is different. The one your talking
about was used when Love Will Tear Us Apart was re-released in 1995
along with the Joy Division Greatest Hits. The video I am talking
about is where there are loads of Ku Klux Klan members walking
around holding up the Love Will Tear Us Apart picture. I'm guessing
they used the '95 video as having images of the Ku Klux Klan could
have been taken the wrong way. Another thing, my parents were quite
big fans of Joy Division and New Order, and my mum once stood next
to the guitarist at a Cambridge thing, and she remembers him saying
some quite racist things.

Also what kind of man was Ian Curtis? Obviously he was depressed
and had a lot of problems, but anything else?

Thanks

I think the video you're describing is the video for 'Atmosphere' and they're not KKK members, they're people dressed up as druids. Bernard Sumner isn't...
