if you haven't seen Ian Brown live since the day heady days of the Roses

Four times, maybe five if you count the last one where he got dragged off stage and cancelled? No problems with his voice at any of them. In fact the Roses gig probably had the worst vocals of the lot, not that it mattered.

I hear Michael Bolton never does a bad gig, maybe an option?

Is this some king of self promotion JB? Didn't realise you'd started a tribute act...



Soft Rock, for the discerning gentleman. Nice.

Good luck, I'm sure you'll feel its money well spent. If he nails it, it will be. Until then, I'll hold on to my £60 until Beck tours again.

if you missed out on tickets over 2000 people bought them to try and rip you off on ebay.

I caught the last 2 notes of FEAR at V fest,I forgot he was on as was having a wank over heidi and the sugarbabes

YYFY just got two tickets at face value through the wife's work. No idea what day it is but it doesn't matter. Need to dig out some baggy jeans, filas and a stussy hat. Get in!

[andy popp]

Ahh well, the clean slate couldn't last for ever. Still jealous, was the sound really shit?

Only just seen this and no, it couldn't. But you don't really expect me to remember how it actually sounded do you?

I spent the whole of the Stone Roses set stood right next to Ian McCulloch without realizing it; and he wasn't exactly incognito.

Anyone going tomorrow?  I've got a VIP ticket whatever that means...

[Johnny Brown]

Yep, I've got a couple of mates going today but there's a big crew of us going tomorrow. 

[Andy B]

Hell yeah.

Glasgow - June 15 2013 - will it be worth the bother fighting for tickets?

[Johnny Brown]

YES. The last Glasgow Green show is widely regarded as their best ever. Tempted to go myself. Listened to a lot of bootlegs and it doesn't sound like they've done a bad show since the reformation.

[SA Chris]

The last Glasgow Green show is widely regarded as their best ever.

Yup, doesn't mean this one will. I suspect I will fight the good fight and see if I come up with anything!

I went to the Saturday gig in Manc in the summer. Was brilliant, definitely go for it.

[SA Chris]

Tried, got fuck all. Balls. Hopefully they will add dates.

[neilslim]

I went to the the Finsbury Park concert last night. They were superb, still buzzin now. Jonny Rotten and PIL were absolute shite though. Unsuprisingly...

[Johnny Brown]

Sounds good, sad about PiL though, always liked their stuff way more than the Pistols. Not seen the Roses film yet but heard good reports.

[rich d]

Supposedly according to an ian brown interview they're working on new material. Who knows when that will come out though

[Johnny Brown]

Squire told 6music they had new material but wouldn't be playing anything live until it had been recorded. I'm hoping that in the meantime they start playing a bit more of the Second Coming stuff. Best live performance I've ever seen was them doing Tears in Sheffield in '95, be nice to see it again but with Reni...

[Falling Down]

Sounds good, sad about PiL though, always liked their stuff way more than the Pistols. Not seen the Roses film yet but heard good reports.

Its not really PiL though.  No Keith Levine or Jah Wobble.  A bit like the Stone Roses without Reni and John Squire....

There should be a limit to bands trading on their name when most of the band have left.

[Gritlad]

The film is mint. Funny and exciting
