Sacerdotal! Oh Tony you were such a twat…a fucking brilliant one. Not long before he got ill and stopped broadcasting Tony did a weekly, Sunday morning/afternoon radio slot on XFM Manchester which I was lucky to listen about a dozen times. Had some great guests and as you can imagine he championed local talent…ended up getting into and watching live Jim Noir, The Longcut and some great bands at In the City. Nice one Tony!
Excerpt from 'Last Interview With Tony Wilson', the last Tony Wilson interview: 'Manchester was Manchester and it was Manchester and Manchester was Manchester. And out of Manchester there came this city - Manchester - and this band - Joy Division. There couldn't have been Manchester without Manchester, or Joy Division, and I thought, Fuck - this is Manchester, right? So let's - let's just have... Manchester. And that meant Joy Division, who became New Order - yeah, Manchester meant New Order too right? Gonna shoot me? Never shoot people, that's the fundamental rule of television. Never shoot. Just Manchester, New Order and New Order. And I'm like, on the telly, so I'm like, Yeah, let's put Manchester on the telly. And Joy Division, and New Order. Gonna shoot me? I mean Hey, I'm Tony Wilson, this is Manchester, this is New Order.'
I saw some video of Manchester and the city quite pretty boring if Manchester United and great musician such as The Smiths are not from that city. Remind me of my hometown Bandung, will be boring without great musician such as The Rollies and Persib Bandung football club

This man deserves more credit
Much more credit
🙏🏼
while we marvel at the drugs and the craziness and the ecstatic atmosphere of the night let us not forget the rhythm section
where would we be if this man was not born
No Joy Division, no Happy Mondays, no rave culture and possibly no Smiths, Stone Roses or Oasis.

Listening to the Dooleys, Nolans, and Showaddy fucking Waddy ✌️
A man of the time ...and thankfully...
