So which is it Miguel? Joy Division or New Order?? I'd argue that they are two distinct bands with their own following. Interested in seperating them out? I'd hate to have to give each half credit.

Well, if you insist..

New Order

but it really is the same group. Barney even said it last night (and at the Hammerstein, n'est-ce pas?), when he referred to Ian as our lead singer.
