New Order
In 2001, Cunningham joined New Order, once again as a touring musician as replacement for Gillian Gilbert who had stepped back from live commitments in order to care for her children. At this point New Order were touring Get Ready, their first album in eight years, and were enjoying a renaissance, hence played shows in Europe, Japan and the US. Cunningham remained part of New Order beyond his initial role as a touring musician for the 2005 album Waiting for the Sirens' Call, where he made his recording and co-writing debut with the band.
From 2007 to 2011 the band were on hiatus, but Cunningham was once again part of New Order's 2011 reunion concerts, this time with Gilbert returning to the band too, and continued to perform with the band during the world tour of 2012.

Famous quotes containing the word order:
“We do not praise others, ordinarily, but in order to be praised ourselves.”
—François, Duc De La Rochefoucauld (1613–1680)
“Woman ... cannot be content with health and agility: she must make exorbitant efforts to appear something that never could exist without a diligent perversion of nature. Is it too much to ask that women be spared the daily struggle for superhuman beauty in order to offer it to the caresses of a subhumanly ugly mate?”
—Germaine Greer (b. 1939)
