[kj] Stone Roses reform

[folk devil]

After all that stagnant geetah shit, I welcomed acid house with open arms.

The Stone Roses? Now dated, maybe third time is a charm. I also don't mind Brown's solo work.

I suppose it's fair to say they did have a big influence, and also that 1989 album was very good. The Stone Roses to me represent the absolute end of the golden age of post-punk. Against the backdrop of crap Aceeed house at the time (remember Yaz?), they were brilliant. I would say the hype is more or less justified, though I'm not a fan. And when I say it's justified, I'm talking relatively speaking to, say, a Take That reunion or Steps reunion, though millions would disagree. 

I agree Ian Brown was a knob. I would like to see one of their gigs but will not make the effort if there's something good on telly that night, or Love Like Blood are playing the pub next door.
