Tony is rolling in his grave on this one

Behold, the FAC51-Y3. No, it’s not a late addition to the musical catalogue of Mancunian record label Factory Records, clearly, but a highly limited trainer from Y-3 (the brand created by adidas and Yohji Yamamoto), devised especially to celebrate the twenty-fifth anniversary of legendary Manchester nightclub The Haçienda. The shoe’s design is a collaboration between Peter Saville (the original Factory Records graphic designer), Ben Kelly (the architect who designed the original Haçienda interiors) and Joy Division/New Order bass player, Peter Hook.

overview

From Bizet’s sultry temptations to Berlioz’s lovelorn dreams, this French program brings a healthy serving of passion to your holiday season. Carmen’s famous melodies will seduce you with their Spanish charm. MTT leads the celebrated sister piano duo Katia and Marielle Labèque in Poulenc’s saucy, bluesy and sometimes racy romp through 1930s Paris. Berlioz’s Symphonie fantastique tells the story of the composer’s unrequited love, one that devolves into a delightfully wicked celebration.

… thanx for the ticket Siggi!
