Joy Division Archives and Updates 

May 18th is always remembered by fans of Ian Curtis and Joy Division, and Twitter has become the unofficial online archive for rare photographs, Joy Division/New Order collectables and accounts, run by Gillian Gilbert, Peter Hook, Stephen Morris – and those who were there in Manchester.

This photograph (above) is from the Stephen Morris account on Twitter @stephenpdmorris.

The Twitter accounts run by Joy Division or New Order members update fans on special events (like the Tim’s Listening Party calendar) and insiders’ insights. These are peg dolls from Gillian Gilbert/Morris’s account, below – and a portrait of her, also from the same account on Twitter.
