Members – Stephen Morris

Filed Under (Joy Division Band Members) by admin on

Stephen Morris or “Chinny” as he prefers to be called was Joy Division’s drummer. He joined the band after he was caught slapping a horse senseless in the outskirts of Macclesfield by Ian Curtis.

His drumming style is not in the least bit distinctive and it’s rumoured that he started using drum machines as he realised that he couldn’t really drum.

He collects tanks and is married to Gillian Gilbert who he tries to crush regularly. As of yet, he has not sucked Peter Hook off. He was arguably the most sociable member of the band and could often be found propping up the bar at the Hacienda where he became famous for being able to down 150 pints in an h0ur.

It is rumoured that he only weighs 3 stone which is exactly 15 times less than Hooky.

He founded “The Other Two” with Gillian, who are often regarded as the 2nd worst band on the planet, finishing just below Joy Division in a recent poll.  Now that New Order have split up, he passes the time by filling out crossword puzzles, smoking crack and drumming on tour with Snow Patrol. He was recently punched in the face outside a nightclub in Salford by Peter Hook for calling him “a big fat bastard”.
