New Order have been enmeshed in some drama as of late. Since they were revealed as members of the Rock And Roll Hall Of Fame's Class Of 2026, founding bassist Peter Hook stated that he wouldn't be standing with his ex-bandmates and hadn't spoken with any of them in years. Now, the band has announced that drummer Stephen Morris and keyboardist Gillian Gilbert won't be touring with them for the foreseeable future.
"New Order are very happy to be playing Primavera in Chile in November marking the band’s first performance there in seven years," the statement begins. "Due to personal health reasons, Stephen and Gillian won’t be touring for the foreseeable future and will not be joining for this show. Bernard [Sumner], Phil [Cunningham] and Tom [Chapman] are really sorry that Stephen and Gillian can’t join us this time, but unfortunately the circumstances make it impossible."
They'll be inducted into the Rock And Roll Hall Of Fame in November.
