Have reformed and playing three gigs next summer before possibly headlining T in the Park.

Think they'll come to Brisbane?

It's a possibility, they were very popular here in Australia in their heyday.

Seen them in the early 90's at Glasgow Green, it was fantastic.Would love another opportunity to take a trip down memory lane.

Unlikely. All tickets sold out in 14 minutes.

Blimey! Though it's hardly surprising, been a long time coming.

I don't see their appeal here as worth the trip to be honest. Maybe as part of the festival scene?

I'm a big fan of the 'Madchester/Baggy' thing and my live music obsession started in 1994 but I'd rather watch an up and coming local band for a fraction of the cost.

Live Forever is a Britpop doco well worth watching btw ...

Broad Shoulders

24 Hour Party People is also very good for that

DeadVim

Yup, Coogan is ace.

While we are in that era ... Control is a good Joy Division movie. A bit downbeat (of course) but good all the same.

Early 90's was a great time. Inspiral Carpets,Charlatans (The only SONG i know ...)Primal Scream - or anything that Andrew Weatherall got his mits on and of course the Mondays. Always a great gig. Last time was 'Get Loaded in the park' Clapham Common 2002ish. I know I had a great time but don't remember much
Bez was well,Bez !!

Trouble is Ian Brown can't sing and The Roses where generally pretty crap live.

I remember going to Spike Island to see the Stone Roses when I was about 13. Couldn't believe people were just openly offering all sorts of drugs around. Drank my four cans of cider - puked up in a port-a-Loo and missed the gig.

True that Ian Brown can't sing, but Reni (in my entirely unbiased opinion) is one of the best drummers I've ever heard.

It's all about the vibes man, the vibes
