The Stone Roses (1 Viewer)

[kg82]

Well, the mighty roses have risen from the ashes and decided to play 2 gigs next year. This excites me more than I thought possible. Only thing is, I know those damn pesky ticket touts will be able to get in first for tickets. Anybody think of alternative ways to get them?!

The last 4 gigs I've tried to get tickets for have sold out in next to no time and then appeared on places like ebay moments later for extortionate prices... all I can say is be on the ticket site bang on time for when they go on sale and even then it's still hard to beat the touts.

Good luck.

 

[Houchens Head]

If I get hold of any tickets you can have 'em for free! Stone Roses? Nah fanks!

 

[Covstu]

REALLY! Where?? I am soo there!!!

 

[kg82]

Is that sarcastic Stu?! Only ask because the news has been EVERYWHERE and thought you may be!! If not, it's Heaton Park Manchester, 29th and 30th June. I reckon they may put on another date if demands big, which I'm pretty sure it will be!

Houch, nice one!! I'll keep you to that!

 

[Macca]

I think I may actually have got wood over this news

Sorry it does look sarcastic but it certainly isnt! I love the stone roses and was the kind of music i have grown up with in my youth! Is it a ticketmaster job at 9am on Friday??

 

[rob9872]

Some of my all time fav music although unfotunately most of the people I know who followed them were largely wannabes and cocks.

 

[Covstu]

is that large wallabees with cocks???imp:imp:

Love the Stone Roses and Ian Brown but having seen Brown live I am hesitant to get tickets for this.

I never have an issue getting tickets as the key is determination but for me £60 to see the magic of the Stone Roses destroyed by an aging Ian Brown might be a little too much.

Ticketmaster or seetickets 9:30am tomorrow mate!

If there's a God a pair of those tickets will be mine!

 

[bamalamafizzfazz]

I'm not convinced. They will probably play some warm up gigs leading up to Heaton Park which are half the price. I am tempted to hang fire.

 

[Covstu]

thats a risk!!!

 

[kg82]

Can't get through anyway, ridiculous!

 

[sy79]

tried for hours myself, no joy but already theres people selling 4+ tickets on ebay!

That's what does my head in and that they put them on for 4x the price

 

[ccfctommy]

Got a ticket!! :claping hands:

 

[Covstu]

so gutted, i tried for 2 hours and did not get through!

 

[LastGarrison]

Me too. Wounded.

Oh well travel up on the Saturday and try and jib it, it is then.

 

[stupot07]

Surely they'll have to do a few uk gigs following the manchester ones.

 

[LastGarrison]

Yeah you'd imagine so.

Oh well The Real Stone Roses, Leamington Academy, early December, £12.50 it is then.

 

[wingy]

Get in there

 

[bamalamafizzfazz]

4 tickets Sunday 1st July. Same day as Euro 2012 final, as unlikely as it may be if England make the final I won't be going and ticket will be for sale face value lol.

Funny story... A very reliable psychic I know has told me she's seen England win the Euro 2012 championship! Shotgun that ticket!!!

 

[JGazebo]

I loved them, but they were of their time. Come back = kill the legacy.

 

[Covstu]

and thats the worry, i must admit not many people had rated them live in the past but its just one for the 'tickbox' of great all time bands seen live!!

 

[Platt_The_Donkey]

Rumours of further UK dates circling and set to be announced. I think a nice Arena, with useable toilets could be a better option than a Manchester field full of flying piss pint glasses.

An indoor gig will also have a better sound. To me, the Roses was all about the music rather than Brown's vocals, I'll be singing along regardless.

 

[Covstu]

come to the Ricoh!!!

Who are supporting at Heaton? I heard the Libertines but not sure how reliable that is!?

 

[Sky_Blue_Daz]

Was at 5aside on friday night and my friend had 4 tickets and asked if I wanted one, what a mate

 

[Platt_The_Donkey]

A good mate indeed. The Complete Stone Roses 3rd December will do me for now !!!

 

[Mumford and Daughter]

Yeah you'd imagine so.

Oh well The Real Stone Roses, Leamington Academy, early December, £12.50 it is then.

sturdy going that, might be going with him. bez is special guest there.

 

[LastGarrison]

I saw them at the Napton festival the other month and he was meant to be supporting them.

He didn't turn up.

They were quality though. Should be a good night.

 

[bamalamafizzfazz]

Right guys a few circumstances have changed for me.

I have four tickets for the Sunday which I would like to swap for the Friday.
A new working commitment first thing on the Monday means that staying over on the Sunday is now not feasable.

I live in Coventry and would be able to arrange a ticket swap. I am willing to travel to meet someone but would be much keener on a local meet in the midlands.

I am ONLY willing to do a face to face ticket swap nearer to the time of the gigs to avoid a fraudulent exchange.

If anyone would like to do this ticket swap with me please send me a PM so we can exchange personal details so the deal can be made nearer the time.

I am fully genuine and can prove that i have purchsed four tickets for the Sunday.

I have posted this anywhere and everywhere online and I may as well offer it to my fellow SBT'ers.


If anyone can help me out in getting hold of Friday tickets I will have spare Sunday tickets which would be for sale at face value. Get in touch if you can help me out.

Cheers.
