When this was filmed in 1979 all the young people were either growing their hair & wearing silly Disco outfits or were Punk rockers getting mohawks & wearing leather jackets. Joy Division rebelled against fashion trends & got "military style" haircuts & dressed like proper young men with dress shirts & ties.
I remember when this was first broadcast. Due to school schedules I couldn't watch it live, but I convinced the tech in the school AV department to videotape it, so me and a couple of friends could watch it. We were stunned.
this is a great performance of a great song. "Something Else" was a good show, too, if I remember. Shame about the audience, too immobilised by teenage self-consciousness to dancedancedance

This is sound poetry
Dork Rockers! They were different and damn good!
Coolest band ever!!!
Just simply one the best performances that's ever been captured on film. The emotion shown by Ian is a window into his soul
This seems like a upbeat band. Gonna check their other songs!!
Lol lay off the speedballs cunt
Really didn't understand how good the drummer was until now….I've loved this band 30 years.
I dont get it, this is really underwhelming

Some things you never grow out of. ( From the late Seventies ) they have been my favourite band….bar NONE!
Ian curtis what a frontman
The real star is the Colin Furze looking guitarist.
Grandiosi!
My favorite jd song, morris kills it
The crowd is mesmerized
R.I.P. Ian forever remembered 🌹
Take a bow Stephen Morris from another planet✌️
What I really like about Joy Division is that their live versions of these songs sound better way better than the studio versions.
