I'm with you as well.
I saw New Order at Chippenham Gold Diggers around 1984/5 - a total crock!
I still think Blue Monday is a great record (and tend to think of it as the last Joy Division record even though Curtis was gone), and "Murder" was pretty good, but the the rest is awful and they were dire live.
Never liked The Stone Roses either - people forget that most of their songs were twee little sub c86 pop efforts - the kind of stuff The Bodines did 10 times better - they just got lucky with Fools Gold.
Still Think Happy Mondays were special though - saw 'em support James at Bristol Bierkeller in the late 80's - they really were something to behold.
