Joy Division were a post-punk band formed by Peter Hook and Brenard Sumner after seeing the Sex Pistol's now famous show at Lesser Free Trade Hall. Originally called "Warsaw", the band's first concert took place on May 29, 1977 at the Electric Circus in Manchester On January 25, 1978, the band performed its first gig as "Joy Division." After the suicide of lead vocalist Ian Curtis in May 1980, Joy Division formally disbanded. Several months the remaining members reunited as "New Order." While technically two separate bands, Joy Division and New Order, both were inducted into the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame as one act, "Joy Division/New Order", in 2026.
These are photos from concerts where Joy Division played, so they may be of other bands that played the concert as well.
