Stone Roses Reunite
« on: 18 October 2011, 15:58 »
Two shows at Heaton Park on June 29th and 30th.

Press conference coverage all sounds incredibly positive.

Personally I'll wait and see if one of the IOW festivals book them.  Still fooking cool though!  :cool:
Just because you're offended doesn't make you right.

Dont know whether to be happy or cruelly sinical about this  :embarassed:. The synical side says they wont do any new material of any merit and they are just touring to make money (which is fine if they then spunk that on drugs and booze I may add, cant have the Mondays outdoing them in their continual slide towards drug fuelled decrepancy and death  :wink:) but the happy side says how much are the tickets, can they actually be any good live and do I really get to see the Roses playing live :grin:.

love stone roses, i have a 12inch vynal framed on my lounge wall (ELEPHANT STONE) but got to admit, Ian brown cant sing live for toffee

Last went to see him 4 years ago a doncaster dome and walked out after about 45mins as it was that crap

They are a recording band, not a live band

I saw Brown live in 1999 at Sheffield Uni and again in 2006 at the MEN. First time he was awesome and one of the best gigs I have ever been to. Second time in Manchester was terrible - he had a street magician as the warm-up, but the microphones weren't working, so all a baying crowd of Mancs could see was a couple of tiny figures doing card tricks 0.5 miles away in the distance.

Will be on the phone at 09:30 on Friday morning when the tickets go on sale.
