Calling Stone Roses fans

Have a chance to go see them at weekend but it’s part if a festival and festivals here are utter shite. Is it worth putting up with 20k dick heads to see them as getting any kind of decent vantage point will mean arriving pretty early in 37-40 degree heat.

Anyone seen them on their return?

yes and yes is the short answer

some reviews in the end of this thread

Cheers art, great stuff.

If you weren’t there for the wedding no point turning up for the funeral. Their time has come and gone. Don’t get milked mate.

Ridiculous analogy, although the sentiment is correct.

I wouldn’t bother Kev. I always though they were over rated. Plus the 20k savages would put me off anyway.

Seen them and yes, go for it Kev. Get fulled up and it’ll be like the early 90’s all over again. Go for nostalgia, you won’t be sorry.

Should I get a pill or two so ya?

I’d go with weed, was a massively chilled out crowd in the Park for it, 30/40 year olds just enjoying the memories, no trouble whatsoever apart from a few fellas stoned off their tits who were harmless out. Bring the Adidas.

I was pleasantly surprised by them in Phoenix Park-had resigned myself to watching a bit of an car crash but they were far more polished than when I saw them in 97 or that. Good crowd mix at Phoenix Park which contributed to a great night but my understanding is that you are in Australia Kevin so I can only imagine that you will be surrounded by knuckle dragging, extremely aggressive and violent cunts so it will probably be tough going-stay safe brother.

Bring a fucking bag full of them.

Not interested in if people like then or not, just are they good live since the return, I obviously wouldn’t be asking if I didn’t like them.

The were fucking deadly in Heaton park. Just a pity that Manchester is a proper fuckin dump. It does explain where they got the inspiration for Made of Stone and the likes.

Did not see the other advice before last post. Good advice.

So basically I’m bring a bag of pills, a bag of weed and a knife. Pretty solid advice really lads, cheers.

Weed is a waste of time at a festival/gig Kev. If you want to sit down at home and listen to their greatest hits on an LP by yourself, then bob’s your uncle.

Depends on the festival har, an overnight weed is a must.

Bed of luck to you if you go with pills, happy to leave that shit in the past tbh.

Ya the come down may not be worth it at my age.

You’re a fan of old? Well then get boozed/pilled up and bask in two hours of some of the greatest tunes of your life. You’ll dance like a loon, forgive the singing and rejoice in the genius.

Do it.
