Tickets for the upcoming British tour from Factory legends New Order went on sale this morning (February 3rd).

In virtually every area of British music, New Order's legacy can be felt. Matching a knowledge of dance music with rock song structures and a pop touch, the Manchester band's output remains vital.

Reforming last year, the group decided to operate without original bass player Peter Hook. A controversial choice, but New Order have been able to play a series of live shows on the continent and beyond.

Announcing plans for a full UK tour, tickets for the upcoming shows went on sale this morning (February 3rd). Opening on April 26th, the band will play a no doubt emotional show at Manchester's O2 Apollo. Continuing, the tour hits Birmingham on April 29th, before veering into the Brixton Academy on May 2nd.

Finishing on April 5th, New Order will bring the tour to a halt in Glasgow at the O2 Academy. Tickets are now on sale, but better act quick - demand is expected to be huge.

Here's an archive clip to whet your appetite...
