Peter Hook ribs New Order (again)

New Order are currently touring the West Coast - last night they performed in Santa Barbara (with Johnny Marr opening) - and they've been tweeting out pictures they've taken while on the road.  Yesterday, ex-bassist Peter Hook decided to have a little fun and post one of his own:


Don't let the picture fool you - Hooky is actually on tour in Russia! Tonight he's playing the Kosmonavt Club in St Petersburg along with his band The Light, then heads along to Japan. Meanwhile, New Order and Johnny Marr are on their way back to Indio, California for the second weekend of Coachella.
