I noticed there was some DVD's out of the show they had, was it your normal variety show?

Did you know that the Joy Division classic "Love Will Tear Us Apart" was composed by Ian Curtis as a sarcastic reply to Captain and Tennille's "Love Will Keep Us Together"? And "Do That To Me One More Time" is actually about sexual satisfaction?

Didn't know that tidbit. I always though that Ian Curtis came up with that song after Factory boss Tony Wilson had a Frank Sinatra's greates hits album lying around that he had been listening to.

I doubt the story about Joy Division. C&T only had two very minor hits in the UK before Do That To Me One More Time in 1980 ! Love Will tear Us Apart (1979) was about the split in his marriage to Deborah. His influences were the Doors, Bowie and punk bands like The Sex Pistols.
