Keanu Reeves Gets ‘Love Will Tear Us Apart’ Dedicated to Him at Peter Hook Show
Reeves is a longtime Joy Division fan and once told The Late Show With Stephen Colbert that the track would be his desert-island song.
In San Francisco, Keanu Reeves experienced a fan's dream come true when Peter Hook & The Light took the stage at the Warfield on September 21. The actor, a longtime Joy Division fan, introduced the band before being seen dancing enthusiastically to Joy Division's "Love Will Tear Us Apart," a song he considers his all-time favorite.
Hook, co-founding bassist of Joy Division and New Order, performed with The Light. Reeves took the mic to bring them on, telling the crowd, "The one, the only Peter Hook and the Light! Playing the music we all love from then, today and tomorrow," before embracing Hook as he took the stage. It came the night before Reeves' own band, Dogstar, played San Francisco's Fillmore on their All In Now tour.
