In the spirit of consumer culture the highlights of this doc include a old fart Jorno (I've never seen so much pot in my life) yawn.. and Noel 'heard it all before" Gallagher, noone at spike island could give two shits about Oasis or the music press.. come on seriously, there is a film to made here but this doesn't look like the right one...
Pleased to say that I am genuinely one of the 4 million people who were at Spike Island that day. Ah the memories! Couldn't find a working ATM for miles around, booze confiscated at the gate, the DJ telling everyone between each bastard song that they were Frankie Bones and shite sound from the Roses. And yet...and yet it was still one of the most beautiful experiences of my life up to that point. That was the power of the Roses.
@Idenry Also, his "kids were stoned, on weed and ecstasy as well, so it was a very return-of-the-sixties, hallucinogenic type crowd." There is the voice of a man who knows FUCK ALL about drugs. You're not "stoned" on ecstasy, nobody even used ecstasy in the sixties and neither weed nor ecstasy are fucking hallucinogenics.
i hope Heaton park isnt the new "Spike Island" it was shite,the acoustics were awful there wernt enough toilets & we were all getting ripped off by scouse drug dealers £50 a gram for coke its not even that now !!!
Noel's speaking sense. This is what I've been telling all the cantankerous fuckmuffins who are saying they'll sound shite at Heaton Park... it's not the point. Bands rarely sound studio quality live... in fact Pink Floyd are the only band I've watched live who sounded like their albums. When the opening riffs and base lines to classics like Waterfall and Sally Cinnamon waft across the ears of all of us there next June, the place will explode... and we'll have something to tell our grandkids.
have to agree with cyberpimp - and what was the big thing about Spike Island anyway? The roses made great records, but were never the best band live, sure it was all about just being there, but for that you needed to have been at Blackpool Empress Ballroom. That was the night that defined Madchester. I'm glad they're back together, looking forward to new tracks, but if I left Spike Island feeling it wasn't like Blackpool, I'm not holding out for Heaton Park.
Club E's are crap if you mix in club circles, the rest are better. Failing that, mushrooms will always be the same. Heaton Park will be massive, and the more advanced sound systems and engineers should make it sound impressive. It won't be Spike Island, no, but it will be major. Drug use among the band was the main reason they often performed bad live, and they don't do much any more (well, Mani might have the odd line but Brown only smokes a spliff and Squire is totally straight)
@jilltwerve no, moron. I`m just not one of the million bullshitters who reckons they were around at every major music event..yer know, like on LCD Soundsystems "Losing My Edge". I would love to have gone but I`ll admit, I couldnt get a ticket, I was skint, 18 and living in Newcastle with no transport and at college. No shame in that. You went? great...try not to be a twat about it.
What the fuck are you all on about they made the best album ever and were amazing at spike island no matter what that tit Noel ( I moved out of Manchester as soon as I could and his tosser brother ) and his band sounded shit every time and Liam could not hold his balls never mind a note this is going to be bigger than any Glastonbury Woodstock or neb fucking worth it will go down in history (no pressure there lads ) and they are all still Manchester lad not like the mono twins got to gobby and
October 18 2011: fifteen years have past, "Madchester" and Brit pop are dead, replaced by the X Factor, grime and Dubstep. The world waits with anticipation hot on the heels of today's historic announcement that the Roses are back. Their differences aside, it's all about the music - not the cash
love how the roses did spike island instead of the boring arena circuit that all the other bands do. gigs like ally pally, spike island,glasgow green n blackpool were more than just gigs, they were events. best band ever!
That song was so patriotic... the answer to the USA... Such a powerful song that makes the entire grunge movement be bollocks compared to what was cooking in the UK back then.
@JackBandicootsBunker: If the U.K music scene was so great back then, why didn't the rest of the world get into it? Because it sucked and every band but Oasis is completely forgotten now, that's why.
@tomthefunky It's sad, but sometimes you need the media to tag you along in order to get known worldwide in the way these Madchester dreamers wanted to; but that meant being mainstream, and that's something these great artists didn't want. Maybe the reason why, for example, purists detest Oasis: they came from an Indie scene and they got commercially acclaimed.
An example of how the media does influence a movement is once again, grunge. If you're on the US, expect to have the spotlight on you.
@JackBandicootsBunker: I don't believe those bands didn't want mainstream acceptance for a second. All those Manchester bands made big expensive videos like every one else. I'm sure their publicists were calling MTV to get their videos played just like everyone else. And Oasis didn't come from an indie scene. They were signed to EMI.
@tomthefunky While I don't agree the UK music scene sucked back then, I do agree that these so-called independent bands wanted mainstream acceptance. The Stone Roses were a classic example - signed to Silvertone originally, fell out with them, and then signed to Geffen who were a far bigger label. Not only that, they were happy to perform Fools Gold on TOTP. Nothing wrong with that - it's the snobs that claim they were "there at the start of the journey" that do my head in.
@EASTLANDS70: I was in college back then and I saw both the Manchester bands and the grunge bands come up a few years later. I remember thinking the Manchester scene was doomed because besides the Stone Roses, I didn't hear any serious musicianship in those bands. I love British power pop and I was excited initially but quickly realized it wouldn't take off globally. Grunge was different. While I loathed that scene, I knew it had staying power. A lot of those bands went mega-huge and still are.
@tomthefunky Well, making a videoclip demands you a lot of money, I think it was the fact they wanted good stuff to show up along with what was listened to; remember the Roses had issues with Silvertone, plus their videoclips were quite lame TBH; just home recordings and stuff you won't understand. Now, the Carpets, the Mondays, they had videoclips which seemed to take a lot of production to be what they were.
I wish I had been one of the 3.7million people who went to spike Island, the 40000 who saw the pistols at the 650 capacity 100 club and the entire population of earth who went to woodstock back in 69. I missed out big time.
@lifeonloop Very true. Or the 4 million who were at Man Utd vs B. Munich final in 99. Everyone in manchester claims to have been there. Even mentioning their seat.
I honestly did see Radiohead at their first gig when there were only 47 people there and 14,828 of them were music journalists that knew they'd be great. Honest ;-)
I'll support both the 'Roses and Oasis here. Brown and his band were the authors of such a revolutionary movement, Madchester, followed by Britpop artists that were almost all of them great. It was also carbon-copied in USA under the grunge artists of that day, which I find a bit overrated, but they still got praised and in some cases it was fair enough. About Oasis, Noel is right, Stone Roses caused a huge impact there. And he's not a twat. He was the most brilliant composer of the 90's
@JackBandicootsBunker grunge came from hardcore punk in the 80's slick. give me a single grunge band that sounded like the stone roses. They were two completely different scenes
@zosothedestroyer What really matters is the fact both movements were inspired by the same influences. But Madchester came first, you had to wait some years to witness Grunge's birth, right after the small alternative period in USA and the death of 80's pop.
If your idea is to say Grunge was better than Madchester/Britpop, then you must be wrong, grunge is almost an insult. And don't come up with Pearl Jam and Nirvana like most of the brats out there, because that doesn't make up for anything.
@JackBandicootsBunker "Conversely, another alternative rock genre, Britpop, emerged in part as a reaction against the dominance of grunge in the United Kingdom. In contrast to the dourness of grunge, Britpop was defined by "youthful exuberance and desire for recognition." i don't think so on the britpop thing bud
@zosothedestroyer That's not reliable. Britpop was a derivative out of Madchester. Its influences were higher in number, they also included bands from the 60's and 70's, most notably art rock and progressive bands.
It was no response to Grunge, that's something MTV or NME would say, considering how they produce ignorance to sell more.
And being response or not response, at least it was a better genre/movement.
Hang on a minute, he just said it was a shit gig,oh sorry,its alright when rockstar Noel Gallagher says that,anyone else who was there saying that gets persecuted.Gallagher talks like one whole heap of shite at times the blue nose bastard.
@peaceman1234567 He always talked like that. But don't misunderstand Noel; he still worships the ground that Ian Brown and the Stone Roses walks on and the tunes that they played. In his heart, Noel Gallagher may say Oasis is as good as the beatles but he know they will never be as good as the Stone Roses.
@STEVIDEE54 OH DEAR,WERE YOU TO OLD TO UNDERSTAND WHAT WAS HAPPENING,AND SCARED THE YOUNG LADYS WOULD MOCK YOU.YOU FUCKING SAD CUNT.FUCK OFF BACK TO NODDY LAND.
@giz1aeon , The gig was 2 days before Noel's 23rd birthday, it took me 2 minutes and some simple maths to figure that out. Hows about you doing the same before shooting your gob off shit4brains.
@giz1aeon what an absolute fud!!!!! he was nowhere near 13 years old in 1990, the man is in his 40s, he was roadying for the inspirals at the time and would probably had tickets to see most of the top bands of that era.........he is also a world famous rock star, do you not think if he was lying that somebody who knows him and would know if he wasnt there, would have spilled the beans on him by now?????? seriously some youtube big men need to wise up before they text out of their arses
1st of March is Justin Bieber's birthday. This little roach has been infecting the whole world. Because of him, the world of rock is extincting.
So on his birthday, we all will go to his "Baby" official video and push the 'dislike' button so that the 'dislike' bar becomes 10 times bigger than the 'like' bar.
If you are a rock fan, join with me and thumbs up me, copy-paste this message to all rock videos.
Big thanks for putting this up and big thanks to my bro for gettin me into the roses haha he dragged me along to this (in my defence I was only 14) and bunked in to hear a terrible sound set up on a crazy windy day and did I love it...damn right i fuckin did. It ignited a love for music that never died from that day to this and for that Messrs Brown, Squire, Mounfield and Wren i thank thee
I was there with my mate from Leeds who had had a full-on fight the night before and was wearing a neck brace but we still managed to bounce up and down - I remember I was wearing a red James t-shirt and spent most of my time lusting after all the lads there - ah, those were the days!!! Freedom to Party!!!!!!!!!!
I was there. I went on a bus from Derby bus station, with my then girlfriend, K F. It was a great day, but a long day. which seemed to go on forever.. and the sound was pants.. but like Noel said, It didn't matter - this was my generations woodstock and it meant everything....
For me the sixties died when John Lennon was killed. That's was the end of all what was fuckin' before! In general 1980 is was "black" year for music. Died - Bob Scott, John "Bonzo" Bonham, Darby Crash and on the next day John Lennon. It's a drag.
what is that prick on about ''locked up by 11 years of Conservative govt''. We;ve just had 13 years of Labour and, fuck me, don't have a dig at the Tories you twat. The great music has fuck all to do with your narrow-minded political views. Go and chill with Gordon and Tony you nobhead
I was there - aged 16, and it truly was an amazing experience. The man speaks the truth - we were all off our heads. A bunch of youngsters enjoying the freedom and the music. Who'd have know we were a part of music history. What a day - it gives me good bumps looking at this footage.
i fucking love noel gallagher so much he fucking god man, Oasis and the stone roses i mean manchester has to have the greatest fucking music ever. the smiths as well
@JuanKallot ok that is not entirely true, i have experience only to base it on, AND the fact remains, WE as a SOCIETY IN EACH WESTERN NATION do not know what goes in to pills. so shut up.
@JuanKallot depends what ya mean by trippin, ppl have various variations off the word trippin. hallucinate is 1 for instance whilst another is just freakin out
@JuanKallot depends what pills they were! i've had a few pills back in the day that were trippy as fuck. remember the 'new yorkers'? eyes spinning like fruit machine reels! LOL
@JuanKallot Dont believe that for a second mate! I had a fistful of sweeties in ma pocket one summer thursday night, Blue Dolphins. After i'd necked the first two and was starting to rip off my tights, i turned to my mate who went to lift his pint and his arm appeared to disconnect from the sleeve down as his hand lifted his lager to his mouth. Was a tad unexpected to say the least and not your usual experience on pills, but after that i was rushing like a mother fucker! GOOD FUCKIN TIMES
You don’t trip on pills........I was smashing some pills called ‘phase4’ down my chevvy chase be about that time and there where as trippy as a bastard!!!! Oh yeah.
What you should have said that bloke is a cock....I bet his bum hole is still on spike island coz he got his back door smashed in the fucking faggot!
@KingHinks I know, why do they always have these posh geezers talk about rock music it's alwways this tard talking here, or it's that other bandit Juian Temple or should I say posh geezers and Noel Gallgher, I'd agree with u about the phase 4 as well.
@JuanKallot not on the shitty pills you get nowadays in them days your talkin white doves disco biscuits etc 2 days at least buzzin for £20 unlike today 2 hours buzzin for a quarter of the price and pilld mixed with smack no thanks no trip off of a dove you wish lol stone roses gettin back together Top Banana :o)
omg, I was 21 when this gig happened. I lived just up the hill from Spike Island. I didn't have a ticket, so I crawled under a metal fence to get in. Watch this video and on minute 1:20 there is a picture of me sitting on the grass on the right with a blue tshirt on. What the frig is up with my hair. Good times
@jonnywotten nothing wrong there brother, it was a great time to be living in and deserves to be rememberd in every way . hope you had a good night fella .
there will NEVER be another spike island... the time , the people, the drugs...
its one moment in time that will NEVER ever be matched

@JackBandicootsBunker that's all opinion on which genre was better. Pretty ignorant of you to dismiss a whole genre in favor or another

Hang on a minute, he just said it was a shit gig,oh sorry,its alright when rockstar Noel Gallagher says that,anyone else who was there saying that gets persecuted.Gallagher talks like one whole heap of shite at times the blue nose bastard.
peaceman1234567 1 year ago
@peaceman1234567 He always talked like that. But don't misunderstand Noel; he still worships the ground that Ian Brown and the Stone Roses walks on and the tunes that they played. In his heart, Noel Gallagher may say Oasis is as good as the beatles but he know they will never be as good as the Stone Roses.

@giz1aeon , The gig was 2 days before Noel's 23rd birthday, it took me 2 minutes and some simple maths to figure that out. Hows about you doing the same before shooting your gob off shit4brains.

@giz1aeon what an absolute fud!!!!! he was nowhere near 13 years old in 1990, the man is in his 40s, he was roadying for the inspirals at the time and would probably had tickets to see most of the top bands of that era.........he is also a world famous rock star, do you not think if he was lying that somebody who knows him and would know if he wasnt there, would have spilled the beans on him by now?????? seriously some youtube big men need to wise up before they text out of their arses

1st of March is Justin Bieber's birthday. This little roach has been infecting the whole world. Because of him, the world of rock is extincting.
So on his birthday, we all will go to his "Baby" official video and push the 'dislike' button so that the 'dislike' bar becomes 10 times bigger than the 'like' bar.
If you are a rock fan, join with me and thumbs up me, copy-paste this message to all rock videos.

For me the sixties died when John Lennon was killed. That's was the end of all what was fuckin' before! In general 1980 is was "black" year for music. Died - Bob Scott, John "Bonzo" Bonham, Darby Crash and on the next day John Lennon. It's a drag.

After i'd necked the first two and was starting to rip off my tights, i turned to my mate who went to lift his pint and his arm appeared to disconnect from the sleeve down as his hand lifted his lager to his mouth. Was a tad unexpected to say the least and not your usual experience on pills, but after that i was rushing like a mother fucker! GOOD FUCKIN TIMES

Watch this video and on minute 1:20 there is a picture of me sitting on the grass on the right with a blue tshirt on. What the frig is up with my hair. Good times
