Former Joy Division and New Order star Peter Hook has announced plans to perform the band's iconic, debut album in full at new UK festival, Alt-Fest 2014.
As well as the planned performance of the 1979 album, Peter Hook and The Light will also complete their festival set with Joy Division tracks chosen by fans on the event's official Facebook page. Click here to vote.
"Having played some 200 gigs with The Light now, I've found that the fans all have their own particular favourite tracks which they want to hear live," says Hook about the choice to let fans influence the band's setlist. "It's a great idea to throw some of the set list over to the people at Alt-Fest to see what they most want to hear us play. It will be interesting to see what they come back with."
Alt-Fest director Dominic Void added: "This is perfect for us! Inviting the people that have paid to come to the festival to have their input in what songs they want to hear is exactly what we’re all about and we’re very grateful to Peter Hook for agreeing to this. We want everyone to have their say on Facebook and urge as many people as possible to get involved!"
Alt-Fest takes place at Boughton House in Kettering on 15-17 August 2014, and also boasts performances from Fields of Nephilim, KMFDM, Covenant, My Ruin, Breed 77 and Die So Fluid. As well as Peter Hook and The Light, Killing Joke and Arch Enemy (in a UK festival exclusive) have also been added to the bill.
