The Stone Roses Announce Reunification
The Stone Roses are reunited. Ian Brown, John Squire, Mani and Reni will play three very special shows at the 75,000 capacity Heaton Park in Manchester in June 2012. We were at the press conference and you can hear the whole thing below.
The legendary four-piece announced two massive shows at Manchester's Heaton Park on Friday June 29 and Saturday June 30 2012. The dates will form part of an extensive world tour. They added a third date, Sunday 1 July, also at Heaton Park.
Tickets have now SOLD OUT.
The Manchester band, whose eponymous 1989 debut album is widely considered to be one of the greatest albums of all time, have already been into a rehearsal studio to start work on the set-list for the one of the most eagerly anticipated reunifications ever.
