  • @TriGGletyTheGame Yes, i imagine they are broke or most certainly unable to maintain the lavish lifestyle. I just find it amusing that they are lauded by so many for doing so little?

    I think this is largely due to the shock of the Smiths finishing so early in their career and having an almost flawless, prolific catalogue left behind. Maybe fans were just desperate for new heroes? Good luck to them anyway, at least they are a band!

  • @MottTheWot I don't know why but I just can't listen to the Stone Roses on my iPod and get that nostalgic feeling anymore. I've completely lost my intreast in their older albums now and that sounds really stupid.

    I also can't help thinking that they're doing this solely for the purpose of money, they obviously can't hack 9-5 jobs because they got they're breakthrough so early in their life. Why is it that some of the members denied ever doing a re-union and yet here they are with a reunion.

  • @MrDataCode They are doing it because old chimp face Ian Brown thought electronic reggae was the future, and guitarist John Squire decided to make a concept album based on his favourite paintings!That worked well now didn't it?The Stones Roses only made two albums themselves 5 years apart, (the 2nd album being simply awful) they just couldn't make up their minds what direction to take?The much more talented Noel Gallagher knew exactly what he wanted to do,pity his brother is a moron!

  • @MottTheWot Meh, Oasis were dead long ago, just like Blur and Pulp. Did you honestly want Oasis to stay together and continue making music?

  • @MrDataCode I like the final two Oasis albums, they were doing dome good stuff right till the end. The quality wasn't the problem, Noel's imbecile brother was the issue!

  • The Stone Roses were nothing more than a jingly jangly pod dud phenomenon with a tone deaf lead singer and a debut album that has only one saving grace, it opened the door for Oasis! It took them 5 years to follow it up and even then it was crap. Before taking on the world, perhaps they could organise some minion to fill their bloody water glasses before thinking of world conquest! Old chimpface must need the money!

  • @MottTheWot

    Why did you look up this video then?

  • @RichieDagger11 When someone says they are going to shake up the world, i better take a look, so i did. I've had a good laugh and i hope it all goes well for them all. The second coming was a dud, maybe it will be 3rd time lucky?

  • @MottTheWot Wake up and smell the Roses, Oasis are the worst band to ever come from this town and they make me ashamed to be Mancunian!!!!

  • @MrRoundy76 Smelling just fine around here as long as i don't hear that jingly jangly mess The Stone Roses call music, no wonder it took them 5 years to follow up that first over rated, hyped up dud. Perhaps it's time for a re - location?

  • I was watching on Foxtel of the forgotten songs of the 90's when they came up. I never heard of the band or heard their music until i heard I wanna be famous. AMAZING. I wrote the name and looked it up. Love the song.

  • maybe he indirectly means what he said " 2 too big gigs at Heaton Park"

    There are possibility that it'll bee too much!! Stone Roses were club band after all. BUT I F*** WANT TO SEE THE NEW THE SHIT!

  • Come & Rock around the Rock of Gibraltar!!!!!!

    Andalucia loves The Stone Roses..... free beach party in Tarifa would bring in 500,000 fans from all over the world!!!!!.... Sell the 3D movie rights ......loads of money!!!!

  • Yes yes yes... F* brialliant

  • fucking sound

    

  • we are the resurrection and we are the music......

  • Fantastic, the greatest band ever, I jumped for joy when I heard the news.

  • yey back as one ive got tickets

  • Do you get the impression that ian and john still can't stand each other?

  • I actually found what John said about fixing their relationship to be very touching. I'm also very excited to hear him talk about writing new songs. If this reunion produces an album I for one will be listening.

  • Comment removed

  • im not bothered if the main reason for coming back is for the money. if knobheads like jaime oliver, chris martin, james blunt, el hadji diouf etc are millionaires, why the shouldnt the greatest band ever be rich? ian,mani,reni and john deserve all the money they get. 3rd alum is gonna be amazing!!!!!!!!!

  • @shebangsthedrums89 chris martin isn't a knobhead tbf.

  • @NottinghamForest22 yuh he is

  • @bigidiothead he's made better music than this overrated band anyway.

  • @NottinghamForest22 No, hes made MORE music, not better music. Hes fucking over-rated.

  • yasssssss!!!

  • Things that need to be at the concert that might not necessarily have been featured- the outro of Standing Here , What the world is waiting for, the final section at least of Breaking to heaven, Your star will shine (or Tightrope), Mersey Paradise (I think that will probably be in there anyway), Song for my sugar spun sister, Bye bye badman.

  • I fucking hate all you people saying they are "overhyped". Please please name a band today that olds a candle to this band. Each one of them is a master at what they do. They are a REAL band not fucking commercially put together for crap bands like one direction.

    I hope to god they change the music scene. Its disgusting that music has changed from the 80s till now.

  • @GreenSLi7 as you asked the la's debut is the best album of the era way better than the roses and ive got both,

    its timeless were the roses really sounds like the 80's, i bought the roses album 10 years ago, actually at the same time as the la's, stopped listening after a couple of plays, whereas i still listen to that la's album,

  • @oeyeyea because your a nob

  • @bigidiothead ha ha! had me in stiches with that witty retorte! bellend

  • @oeyeyea to be fair you are,.. i know its only your opinion, but its a crap opinion, "the roses really sounds like the 80's" bollocks do they,.. nd you say this about them? but the la's debut, dont sound "80's" at all does it? you moron.

  • @bigidiothead ahh so its a crap opinion,too bad,its true,and no it doesnt sound 80's,it sounds like it could of come out yesterday to me,cant say that about the roses,

  • one album wonders can cause this??? wow. yeah in the day that was ahead of its time,but hardly the stones,pink floyd,zepp,the who,beatles class of music,sorry its a hyper i need the money comeback.

  • stone roses have to be one of the most overhyped overated bands ever, a few alright songs and a lot of boring filler and wah peddle,do they really warrant being on the six oclock news? and every other tv channel,forgot they were as big as the beatles?? ian browns a moron who thinks he's hard as fuck,dont care even if he is a karate expert or watever,

    ok band,very much sounding of there time,nothing special get over it,those moves he had aswell, terrible

  • @oeyeyea if youre not a roses fan, why are you watching it then? what a waste of time viewing something you dont like. and to say the roses are overated confirm you havent got a clue. they are the greatest band ever and no other band can compete with songs like i am the resurrection, she bangs the drums, this is the one etc

  • @shebangsthedrums89 you say i havnt got a clue then you say there the "greatest band ever" and no one can compare to them, its quite obviously you who hasnt gotta clue, if you knew anything about music theres no way you'd say that, They are very much overated,very sugary and very 80's, Listen to the la's album,the stairs album,shacks album,ride etc for a real taste of the late 80's early 90's and if you still think the stoned posers are still the best, ya need a lobotamy

  • @oeyeyea to say ride are better than the roses is laughable. bands like ride maybe ok but there instantly forgettable. the stone roses however were perfect; looked great, had the gang mentality, amazing confidence, brilliant interviews that gave them a mystique, unique paint splattering jackson pollock cd/t shirts covers,great attitude and most importantly amazing songs. in 50 years the debut will still be loved but no one will remember any ride songs.do agree with you on the la's tho. gr8 lp

  • @shebangsthedrums89 well you love them, sound, but there no way the greatest band ever

  • this could something very magical,,

    like it or not they were one of the best bands ever,

  • Reni sounds posh doesn't he?

  • Problem is, 99% of people commenting on these pages have never ever heard them live.

    So are spending vast amounts of money, and getting terribly excited about seeing them, unaware that, although they truly are one of the seminal musical acts of their generation, they are also one other thing.

    One of the worst live bands, in the history of music.

    Seriously, they're awful live. Truly awful.

  • Reni looks about 60.

  • man ageing sucks.

  • @MilesAboveTheTrees I know! Thank fuck for their Sunday show or I'd be missing out.

    Heard a rumour Noel Gallagher's High Flying Birds are supporting.

    Really hope it's fucking true!

  • pissed off tried to get a ticket this morning but the site kept crashing, now everyones selling them for stupid money

  • Got tickets today. Buzzing man.

  • Felt on top of the world that I'd scored 4 tickets for me and my friends, then found out another friend of mine is dying of cancer on the same day. Life... it takes you up, then brings you crashing down. It's like this reunion... a good thing to come out of a bad thing (Mani losing his mother, God rest her soul)

  • got my ticket

  • Whoever say they aren't big I can tell you this:they sold 150,000 tickets for the heaton park gig in 14 minutes this morning. If that isn't big then what is?

  • @YoRkAcOrN100 my bum

  • @YoRkAcOrN100 They aren't big. 150,000 dickheads wanna relive their youth. That's it. They were fuckin awful then and they will be awful now.

  • I don't know why this is such a big deal and is on the news, they were never that big in their prime anyway. suppose most of the people buying Stone Roses tickets better go buy their albums and learn their songs.

  • @SosiMcGee As you are only 20 years old you obviously by making the comment "they where never that big in their prime" You need to also listen to them and do a lot of reading pmsl you was 6 when they split up

  • dont know what all the fuss is about, they were shit back then and no doubt they will be again... hendrix forever

  • @andrewleighton657 You are obviously the minority because they just broke all records selling 220000 tickets in 68 minutes and the demand still hasnt finished.

  • @andrewleighton657

    they weren't shit but yeah i'd listen to Hendrix over the stone roses anyday

  • @mufc4527 Whats Hendrix got to do with any of this?

  • @NHBEY39

    nothing, just giving my opinion that he's better.

  • Stone Roses.......... more like stoned wankers

  • @raskinman fuckin hillarious. how long did it take you to come up with that one? you're the only wanker here.

  • @RosesRessurection It would have taken me a minute or two if I wasn't fucking your mum

  • @raskinman Stoned Wankers who just sold 220000 tickets in 68 minutes making it the fastest selling gigs in UK history you teabagger

  • @NHBEY39 yeah but your mum's live porn show sold 2000000000000000000000000000 tickets in 68 minutes making IT the fastest selling x-rated show in UK history you muppet

  • @raskinman Pmsl what a prick! Mom jokes went out about the same time as the Roses split. But I'm glad you stopped bye...you've reminded me to buy a cabbage.

  • @NHBEY39 so they are as ancient as the Stoned Wankers?

  • The Stone Roses will save music!!!

  • So so so so good

  • 'There is no way we are gunna show ourselves up'.... what a load of old bollocks. Of course they are gunna show themselves up! It will be an embarrassment. The Stone Roses were a great band in the 80s and early 90s. It wont be the same now! I hate seein good bands reform and make fools of themselves. Look at The Specials and The Sex Pistols. Again great in their day but useless tryin to re live it as old men. It just doesnt work. BE REMEMBERD AS THE GREAT BAND THAT YOU WERE!! They just spoil it!

  • @MOONST0MP Nah, u've been sniffin' from the wrong glue pot lad. Y'know Ian Brown can still do it because he's never stopped gigging (& still does the odd Roses number in his sets anyway), Mani's still got it with Primal Scream... Like IB said, it needs to be the 4 of 'em to work (you only gotta look at Reading 1996 to see thats true) & this time u have all 4... Ya gotta remember for all the young 'uns now, who found Stone Roses through Oasis or wotever, its a dream to see their hero's now

  • @MOONST0MP The Specials have been brilliant in their recent shows.

  • the world needs them

  • RENI RENI RENI !!!!

  • This news i've always wanted to hear, for me the Stone's have always had that special sound, they we're the first band i really got into in a big way, the very first band shirt i bought, i felt like i found my calling, Indie music was great at that time but these boys took it to the next level.i still remember listing to fools gold for the very first time it was an epic sound & even when i play now it does'nt seem dated .i'll be buying a ticket & hope to share it with fello Roses fans :D

  • @Royst Me too...;)...so excited about this reunion....see you in Manchester!

  • hahaha, I just see Noël and Liam having a little phone call about some reunion meeting now that the roses did it as well ... hahaha

  • fuck, they look like football managers anouncing a million dollar transfer ... fuck, I hope they don't burn themselves ... I was never one of those who thought that the roses should reunify at any price ... their first baby was born in a summer of love, and it was the best brit album ever ... but then, am I afraid to meet the heroes of my past and to see they have changed, or do I care more about things like "stellify", "country girl" and that fuck??? I hope Primal Scream doesn't break ...

  • About time lads,you're always going to get dickheads on here knocking them,but lets face it they were a one off,a fantastic band,i hope they cash in as there is absolutley no competition out there.

  • 歳とったなあ。

    大丈夫かなあ?

    なんちゅーか、最低限、格好つくと良いけどねぇ・・・

    (上から目線)

  • @WeThink4U's .. your so wrong. they were all just unbelievable musicians .. Just pure musicians, all them.. you clown!!

  • Fucking UNBELIEVABLE! Cant stop smiling!! its been a long time coming but the roses are back! Cant wait to hear what magic Squire and Brown can come up with this time round! Honestly my favourite band of all time, music needs the Stone Roses! Ressurection is NOW!!!

  • @RosesRessurection dont forget mani and reni, dude, dont forget them!!!

  • @inspiralroses Course I wouldnt forget them man, you cant have the roses without the inspirational Reni and Mani, i was mainly talking about songwriting which was largely down to Ian and John last time. So good to see them all back together, love it when John says "and then 15 years was like yesterday."

  • @DJBunnit Oh fuck off.

  • fuckingg yessssssssssssssss!

  • there are some really nice people commenting on this video!

  • fuck all ur moronic comments about them only being back for the money ,,,who gives a flying fuck what the reason behind them getting back together ,,,the main thing is they r back together ,,,long live the roses

  • @turbo13101 shite. a product of the madchester movement, nothing more, nothing less. overhyped, a fad, they were never any good live. they'll be shiter now.

  • @DJBunnit Hahahahaha. Listen mate,I'm not sure why + how this has come about,but I really don't think it is money. One of us will soon be proved right either way!

  • ybot 1983,how the fuck you'll look in twenty years from now cunt?

    

  • @DJBunnit Ian Brown is a millionaire. The money's been on offer for a long time,if it was just money,why haven't they taken it before now?

  • @Comanchio1976 shut it cunt, its just reni has aged alot worse than the rest, squire and mani look exactly the same while brown looks only just older than when they were together first. So keep ur fuckin mouth shut sarcy cunt

  • Haha Reni: "if" anyone buys the tickets...I'd re-mortgage my house and buy them all myself if I had to. Something tells me I wont need to though.

  • how can one comment here say Reni looks old. that is a pathetic comment. have you stayed the same since 1989 ?? they all look cool as ever. oh , & how about Cocteau Twins re-union ? i know it will never happen. Smiths - possibly.

  • saw them 3 times in 89" ...BRILLIANT !!!

  • morrissey & marr you can do it too!!!

  • best get my wallet out....

  • Their music reminds me of this film called Black Biscuit, fucking ethereal

  • Squire and Brown, like spock and kirk.

  • Reni is looking OLD

  • @Ally20791 I know! Who would have thought that it was possible for a human being to age in a mere 20 years? Mad, innit!

  • I want RIDE back now.

  • Fuck the smiths and the jam this is our time now long live the roses

  • It's funny how life can instantly change. Earlier today I was worried about mundane things, but now, my whole goal in life has changed... where am I going to get the money to go from California to Manchester next summer. That is #1 right priority now. Anyone have a couch I can crash on??!!!!!

  • @braddyboy82 I doubt you'll be getting much sleep matey, Manchester will be absolutely unbelieveable for the Heaton Park gigs.

  • What are they drinking? Haha..they're so layed back and cool. Greatest band ever !!

  • Happiest day of my life

  • "this is a live resurrection that were inviting you too" class

  • i feel like a 4 year old on christmas morning!

  • I can't wait, but I'm especially happy for all the long suffering Manchester fans who had fate take this band away from them too soon. Amazing music.

  • Fucking dancer! The music scene is utter pish just nowbut wait till these guys pick up their instruments! Am a happy man!! ;)

  • sooooooooooooooo happy

  • Reni!!!

  • They shouldn't do this. Never go back.

  • I didn't think i'd be this excited about 4 near 50 yr old men, but fuck it i am.

  • Heaton park 2012... the knebworth of our generation

    Best fucking news of this year

  • Thought we'd see Nirvana back together before this.

    This is the one!

  • @blackswansmusic Err I think Kurt Cobain might be a little rusty.

  • @seandodson1969 yeah!

  • next is the smiths then oasis PLEASE!!

  • So this is the second coming right? ^^

  • To all you dicks who say Ian Brown cant sing, rock and roll isn't about souding good, its about soundin rock and roll try a bit of Lou Reed or Bob Dylan if you want singers who cant sing worth a fuck, The Stone Roses are fucking magic...hopefully it will be great...

    And ...are they in it for the Money? I don't know but I choose to believe that we have some of the greatest rock and roll artists of the last 20 years sitting in that press conference, I dont think they are in it for the money....

  • After The Smiths........The Roses are the last GREAT British band. End of.

  • Come to the US...period. I'm from Philly, and I'd travel to Cali to see the Roses play! 

  • They just enjoy playing and creating music together, and if the enlightened (not so) few people appreciate it, then that's a bonus. Shake off the dust and arise!

  • Here's my 2 pennies worth: Four people get on with each other after letting the embers die down. They are just four blokes who now on the surface of it good friends again. They happen to be also some of the greatest pop rock musicians and lyricists of their time. Note I did not mention vocalists

  • Mani looking out of it as usual! :') So much love for that man!

  • Please come to Chicago!!!!!

  • id give my left arm too see the stone roses live....

  • @mini1dressel ..Go go go if u get the chance seen them in Glasgow so long ago genuis band......

  • @Marky1888 oh i will be going to see them for sure. favourite band of all time... :)

  • I'm happier that they are friends again even more than that they are reforming.

  • MAADDDFFEEERRRITTTTT!!!!!!!!!!­!

    

  • FUCKIN YYYYYYYYYYEEEEEEEEEEEEESSSSSSS­SSSSS!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! :D I have been waiting 15 years for this :')

  • yeeeeeaaaahhhhh

  • Ahahahahaha......they had one semi-okay record and then a crap follow up five years too late. They plan to make money from dumb fucks (Fools Gold - Ha!). Pointless reunion!

  • I used to laugh at Rolling Stones fans going mad at their old decrepit band. I now dread this. Why the fuck does Ian Brown want to reform with the Roses? He is totally successful on his own, there's more to this than meets the eye. This will ruin all memories and any kudos the roses had, greedy bastards.

  • @whyohwhyfools wsell dont watch or buy ay tickets then, go be an arse else where if your not interested.

  • Comment removed

  • @ouzodave your the type of dull cunt who spends his time making shite comments just because you don't like something. Well just fuck off.

  • They only ever made two albums, the second one being shite, hardly world shaking stuff, get a grip !

  • @woodsy281 fookin to right

  • Respond to this video... which is your opinion, not shared by many i'm afraid.

  • Outstanding boys..........cant wait lg4443294
