Artefact

Badge
New Order
Manchester Arena (MEN)
28th January 2006

Badge produced by hardcore New Order fans, the Vikings, for the first Manchester Vs Cancer event at the MEN Arena and subsequent dates

As well as a set by New Order, who played only Joy Division songs, members of the band played in various collaborations on the night, including a performance of the Monday's song Wrote for Luck which several people described as 'memorable'.

A strict Viking code of secrecy protects the meaning of the badge's coded message, which uses the colours developed by Peter Saville for the sleeve of Power Corruption and Lies.

None of us can remember what it means, anyway.
