Joy Division were scheduled to commence their first US/Canada tour in May 1980. Curtis had expressed enthusiasm about the tour, but his relationship with his wife, Deborah, was under strain; Deborah was excluded from the band’s inner circle and objected to Curtis being close to Belgian journalist and music promoter Annik Honoré , whom he met on tour in Europe in 1979. He was also anxious about how American audiences would react to his epilepsy.
