Peter Hook 'Relieved' About New Order Split

Peter Hook has said that he is relieved that news of the New Order split has emerged.

In an interview with Clint Boon on xfm last week, Hookie made the revelation that New Order are no more.

Now, in a post on his official Myspace page, the bassist wrote on his blog: “Well here we go again another action packed week.

“I suppose it was the interview with Clint Boon that started it all off he’d asked me for a few words on Perry Farrell’s satellite party single Dogstar [which he thought was great] so I went on and lo and behold mentioned the N>O> split.

“So I suppose because it was me sayin it it was out at last. I’m relieved really hated carryin on as normal with an awful secret so lets move on shall we?”
