Manchester v Cancer @ M.E.N. ArenaRoland Hancock28/01/06The M.E.N. Arena was taken back to the 1980s as Manchester's musical legends strutted their stuff for the Christie Hospital.For one night only, half of The Smiths performed some of their old classics on stage, New Order played a purely Joy Division set and Shaun Ryder even behaved himself on stage.Not that the city's most recent crop of talent were to be outdone during the marathon five hour concert, with the likes of Badly Drawn Boy, Doves and Elbow mixing their line-ups for track after soaring track.Nobody could steal New Order's headlining thunder, however, as they slipped back into Joy Division tunes, playing some of them for the first time since Ian Curtis's death.The crowd lapped up punked-up versions of Transmission and a strangely uplifting and raucous Love Will Tear Us Apart as Bernard Sumner and the boys led them on a trip down memory lane.But that was only the end of a stellar night of Manchester's musical talent.First on stage were former Happy Mondays Bez and Shaun Ryder with their new band, Domino Bones, setting the upbeat tone as they ploughed through one riotous new tune after another.After DJ sets from the godfathers of dance Utah Saints, 808 State and Graeme Park, the city's youngest musicians showed them how loud and proud indie is done these days as Nine Black Alps burst in with pounding tracks from their debut album.Then it was the turn of today's biggest names as Elbow energised the crowd with their summer hit, Forget Myself, and they just kept getting bigger as Badly Drawn Boy strode onstage.Accompanied by ex-Smiths bassist Andy Rourke, a playful Badly Drawn Boy first broke into U2's Still Haven't Found then Madonna's Like A Virgin before his classic, Silent Sigh.It wasn't long before the night's true stars came out to the warmest of welcomes from the crowd.After former Stone Roses bassist Mani's DJ set, ex-Smith Johnny Marr and new band The Healers sauntered onstage with guest bassist Andi Rourke, the first time they have played together since the Smiths split in 1987.And, for the first time, classic Smiths tracks rang out across the arena to a rapturous crowd. First was There Is A Light That Never Goes Out, then the rabble rousing How Soon Is Now, which went down a storm with the nostalgic crowd.Doves looked almost apologetic as they took to the stage, thanking the real stars of the show, the crowds who had raised tens of thousands for the Christie appeal.But they didn't hold anything back from their purring set, playing a fast and passionate Pounding and recent hit Snowdon with a celebrity chum, Badly Drawn Boy.
Smiths reunion in Manchester!Marr and Rourke tear through old classicsThe Smiths' legends Johnny Marr and Andy Rourke were reunited onstage for the first time in almost 20 years in Manchester last night (January 28).The old pals came together during an evening of many collaborations at the Manchester vs Cancer charity event, organised by Rourke. The bash triumphantly hosted the cream of the city's talent for the benefit of pioneering cancer hospital, Christies.A packed MEN Arena witnessed Marr, appearing with his band The Healers, begin his set with a storming version of The Smiths' classic 'There Is A Light That Never Goes Out'. He then invited Rourke onstage, stating, "I first played with this guy at school in 1978 and we last played together in 1987. We've done some good things and some not so good things, but it's been too long really and now is a good a time as ever." To the absolute delight of the crowd, the pair then launched into another Smiths favourite, 'How Soon Is Now?'.However, after one song together, Marr reverted back to The Healers' new material, but not before embracing Rourke as the bassist left the stage.After short, sharp sets from Nine Black Alps, Stephen Fretwell and Elbow, Rourke reappeared to play with Badly Drawn Boy on 'Everybody's Stalking'.Doves were the most accommodating band of the night, allowing for a host of star players to join them. Collaborating with Badly Drawn Boy on 'Disillusion', Marr and New Order's Bernard Sumner then arrived for a slightly chaotic version of Lou Reed's 'Vicious'. Sumner, clearly moved by the occasion, declared his appreciation to the crowd with characteristic modesty saying, "I'm not turning into Bob Geldof. Don't worry, I'm still a twat."Completing the once-in-a-lifetime nature of the night, New Order played a set entirely of Joy Division songs. Bass player Peter Hook told the adoring masses that it was, "time to tear the f*ckin' house down". Set highlights included 'Transmission', 'Warsaw' and 'Love Will Tear Us Apart'.The finale involved the full cast of characters on stage to play out with Happy Mondays' 'Wrote For Luck', with vocal duties delivered by Shaun Ryder.
