Stone Roses reforming for Heaton Park gigs
It’s finally happened, after a long and drawn out will they won’t they saga, the news we’ve all been waiting to here is, yep The Stone Roses are reforming.
Ian Brown and John Squire have buried the hatchet, and will play Heaton Park in Manchester on 29th and 30th June 2012. Question is, will it be a resurrection, or a continuation of where they left off at the Reading Festival gig in 1996, widely planned as one of their worst performances. It fell some way short of the excitement of Spike Island, but whether they can match the dizzy heights of the 80′s and 90′s remains to be seen.
With a new album in the offing, and new songs to be played at the gigs, and a forthcoming tour, we will be adoring the Stone Roses all over again, whether we like it or not.
