- New Order perform Blue Monday at the Seaview Ballroom in Melbourne, Australia on 27/11/82.
NOTE This is the first time New Order played Blue Monday live. With vocals anyway. A couple of days previous to this, they did a gig in a different venue in Melbourne, and they debuted an instrumental of Blue Monday. This would go on to be the b-side known as The Beach.
He's right, this was the first-ever performance of Blue Monday. As confirmed by the official New Order gigography. At the previous gig two days beforehand they played The Beach (the instrumental version of Blue Monday) :-)
OMG at Barney/Bernards vocals on this!! Not that he has ever had a singing voice and that was half of the charm of New Order.
Thanks so much for uploading!
I took this Video in the small lighting room above the stage in the main hall of the Crystal Ballroom. The owner of the Crystal Ballroom, who also owned Missing Link Record shop in the city, had me also run a AV cable to the big screen downstairs. I believe this was the first time played and definitely the first time Blue Monday was recorded. Here I am, over 40 years later, and I recorded Peter Hook & The Light doing it again at the Astor Theatre in Perth (28/05/24).
that's an amazing piece of history captured! Just saw Hooky perform in Melbourne couple of weeks ago. Amazing
This was recorded at the Order's second Melbourne gig (Seaview Ballroom, 27.11.82), just over a month after BM was recorded at Britannia Row in London (around 22nd October). Cool!
Barney still trying to "find" his "voice" then... Classic Classic N/O! This is what makes them different form other bands. We watched them grow and get awesomer with time. Barney singing regardless of how awful he sounded. Hookie messing up notes. The other two hitting two keys at once. Again..something only a N/O Fan can appreciate and love.
heheh. the other two.
This is probably the closest ive ever heard to the original recorded version, probably due to all the equipment. The sequencer is nigh on identical!
According to setlistfm it's from November 1982. But how is that hard to believe? New Order often played songs live well before they saw the light of an official release. "Let's Go", the instrumental released in 1987 on the Salvation soundtrack was performed live as early as 1985. Proto-types of Temptation & EGG in late 1981 with Movement songs.
Yep, and Hooky confirmed it in his biography (Pt11) Substance, P134
In the 1982-1983 version of this song, the LinnDrum and Oberheim DMX were heard. In 1983 versions of this song, the Oberheim DX was heard.
wowwww! really nice to see this, cos i was there that night! i recall talk then, of this being the first public performance of blue monday. how i loved to go to the seaview.... i saw them at powerhouse on albert park lake too, around that time maybe the year before.
Powerhouse was in '85
The Palais was just before this. Their first Australian tour.
Was there. Great night 🖤
How old were you at the time? I remember hearing this on the radio here in England in 1983 when I was 4 years old. It made a big impression on me, even at that age.
So was I! I just wish I’d paid more attention…
My lord...I need a diaper change. This was such a disaster..I love it. I wish I had been there but I 2as shy of 10 lol. I live this. Classic. Best shit ever ..Thank u!!!!
@soupfan1 This is the first time I've ever uploaded it.
I think my ears just flew South.
Woah! I've never heard this before, it's so amazing.
Steve at the end looks like Ian. Bernard is drinking so much I think he needs to pee. Hooky, world's most underrated drummer. Gillian, in a dress!
great great upload man.
Los mejores !
lol to barney's voice @2:36
XD
Probably had to much to drink
gosh, tis is fantastic....why were their early shows so "in the dark"?
yes thats why
Because they were often filmed by amateurs, and amateur cameras didnt pick up as much light. Watch any “early” New Order performance that was filmed for television instead
mmmm makes so much sense...thanks

Three days after my birthday.
I've seen ufo's with better resolution
The footage is still better than security cameras nowadays
Wow !, i wish i had been there, and if i could back to the 80s, too !; thank you for share this jewel with us, regrettably the video quality, does not accompany at all, the technical perfection that subsequently acquired the song (lol)
I'm pretty sure the set list read 'The Beach', i was really up close that night.
the beach is the dance mix of this song(Side B of the record)
A few months ago I saw a clip captioned some like “first reaction of new order” when they first debuted their electronic style. The clip was fascinating with people sitting standing in the room not knowing how to move to the music. I have been so desperate to find this clip again, if anyone’s still on here and can help PLEASE!!!!
Btw this footage is amazing thank you for uploading!
Was Blue Monday released as a single in Australia?
No it wasn't. New Order had recorded it before they went on this tour and they usually ended up playing new stuff before it was released. Another example is there is a live pre-release version (like this) of the perfect kiss that Bernard introduced as "I've got a cock like the M1." How someone's private parts can be like a motorway I'm still unsure but it's funny so fair enough.
@@joeogle7729 Thanks for the reply Gigavox, interesting stuff.
...there too
A damn right disaster and an absolute mess and we love them for it. Take away New Order and the 80s uk music scene would have been very different
Don't think was ready for Endeavour will more easy coming through.
I'm a massive New Order fan and this concert was shit. boring. Studio band only
AlfieNoakesOhHo
Lol..Then u r no true new order fan...Sorry. just a studio fan. U have to think this was 1982...Prototype song. Shitty unreliable synth and sequencers by people who played by ear. If u do not understand the influence and the history of the group how can u call yourself a dan..Stick to the records. Have u seen them in later years once they gave in to commercialism? I bet youd love those gigs
@@thedelacruz - the "commercial" gigs are the ones I dislike most. The unpredictability of New Order gigs always made them more interesting. When they were on fire, they were on fire, and when they were shit, they were shit, but even when they were shit, they still had some magic about them.
The beauty of (early) New Order was that they were flawed, and they'd happily admit to being so.
@@thedelacruz I love the version of the blue Monday in the university in new Zealand (12/8/1982)
