Another nail in the coffin of pleasant memories

One good album 20 years ago - don't push it.

As a live act they were pretty hit and miss back in the day, so be very interesting to see what they sound like now, and if they're going to record new stuff (I'm assuming they'd hardly bother getting back together if they weren't planning to work on some new songs?)

Ian Brown cant sing live, but the guitar/bass/drums!!!!...... Amazing!!!!!111!!!!

Irish Guitarist

The Stones Roses were alright but they were no Jesus Jones.

super_furry

They're about the only band that could save Slane for me.

Better bring Cressa back with them though.

And play Sally Cinnamon.

Love their albums but heard they can be poor live. And you could see how they could be at a festival or something. In the right venue though, they'd have to be brilliant

Cant wait for this, might just head and see them on their "home turf" instead of over here, Irish gigs are ****e as a rule of thumb....

This is just what the world's been waiting for...must have been the hardest thing in the world to get Mani back on board. Good times.

Reforming with the original lineup.

So most bands that play great shows abroad come to Ireland and it all suddenly goes pear-shaped? Bit of a generalisation no?

Welcome to the thread!

Saila

saw Mani on shooting stars a few weeks ago and wondered why is he on, and thought when Vic asked any chance of a reunion I thought it was just an obvious lame question.

shocked! :eek:

super_furry

Tell you who I feel sorry for, the members of all the tribute bands and their families. It'll be a cold Christmas in the Complete Stone Roses' house.

Yeah, next thing the Smiths will be reforming and make a bollox of These Charming Men and all the other clones!

I'd much prefer a Smiths reunion. Morrissey is still a brilliant live performer and Marr, well Marr is just God.

Yea!! Slash and Axl back together Guns N Ros Awe

Good luck getting a ticket, maybe for the Liverpool gig :pac::pac:

At least I'll get to scratch this off the bands I'll never get to see live! I wanna be adored is going to be emotional, best news in ages.

:):):):)

stovelid

Both.

I loved them so can't help wanting to see them again but also knowing deep down that they should have just let it go even as early as 1990. They could never again be as perfect as 1988-1990.

Badgermonkey

Only if the simian frontman sings in key.

It's a no from me so.

Corrected for ya

Will be interesting to see them back at Reading. That's where it all came to a horrible end 15 years ago. Squire and Wren had both quit at that stage and a pilled up Ian Brown and Mani were booed off stage. It was horrible to see such an epic band reduced to that.

The Smiths will never reform.
