Stone Roses in Dubai, 21 Feb 2013
Just found out about this and bought myself some tickets - http://www.thestonerosesdubai.com/
I am literally stupidly excited about it, thought my chance to see them had long since passed. :D:beer::thumbup: |

Snagged a pair myself about 20 minutes ago.
Heard about this one 6 months ago but was always dubious it might happen. So glad it is though. Now where did I put my flares ad hoodie? |

To be honest I figured the whole reunion would be a dreadful car crash and end up in out-of-tune tears. Extremely glad to have, so far, been proved wrong.
Any idea the capacity of the Media City venue? |

I would rather go and watch Al Jarreau...not least because I honestly thought he had died some time ago.;) Incidentally, how did you guys buy the tickets when that link merely allows you to register for pre-sale in advance?

Re: Stone Roses in Dubai, 21 Feb 2013
ok so in 8 years here i haven't really given a shit about any band that's visited. THIS however is a ****ing dream come true, was only just too young to be allowed to go to spike island and have wanted to see them ever since. If there is one band i would say is a favourite its the roses, holy ****ing shit the stone roses come to my doorstep.
that just made my ****ing month. legend 2 tickets bought. |

I went home to see them this year and i had my doubts but they were very good .
Ian Brown's voice is not the best but the band were still really tight and the crowd were good as well , proper old school . I was lucky to see them at Spike Island all them years ago , well what i remember of it ! The only thing that will not match will be the crowd . U.A.E crowds are pretty shite to be honest , a lot of them will not even know who the Roses are , they're just event cattle , it's a shame they can't just stick to making an arse of themselves at brunch ! I saw Ian Brown in Dubai a few years ago and he was pretty good but the crowd were clueless . He actually nearly chinned some pissed up fella at the front of the stage. I'll probably still go ;) |

Re: Stone Roses in Dubai, 21 Feb 2013
I too hate Dubai crowds (although they're no better in AD). You chaps are right. People often have no idea about the band/performer and would rather listen to their own idiotic voices instead of the band.
I was in two minds as I'm not a massive Stone Roses fan, but that reminder has decided for me. I'm fed up with events that I have paid good money for being ruined by selfish morons. |
