New Order Reading University, Main Hall. Shinfield Rd, Reading, Berkshire ENGLAND.
Bit of a strange one this, didn't tape it myself as i knew the taper from my contacts working in the local record shop in town"Listen Records". The gig itself was the Reading Uni Rag Ball and as such there was a mixture of your hardcore N.O fans and the Tux & Ballgown brigade, i think this is reflected in the gig itself. I was getting to as many N.O gigs as i could during this period, i'd previously seen/taped them at Sheffield Roxy where the crowd was 100% N.O and the band seemed to recognise this.New Order gigs up north were generally a better deal, i still hate London gigs myself, too much posing not enough participation.
The highlight of this performance is it's the first time they played 1963, strangely enough the first time they played Reading University was also the first time they played an encore (with section 25).
Anyhow, the taper was a guy known as Lazlo [*] recording equipment unknown Given to me as a 1st generation tape

[*] Subsequent research cast doubt that this was taped by Lazlo, as there's another recording known to be his that exists.
