I saw there last ever gig, with some bloke from simply red on the giutar, it was shocking....truley aweful...
I'll be getting tickets when they announce more dates though...(unfortunately the manc gig is a week after my wedding - couldn't see her wearing that one..)
I've seen Ian Brown live a few times, always superb....often does a few roses numbers but you have to allow for the fact that he really can't sing...I mean not at all, hardly a note in tune....But well that doesn't really matter...It will be amazing, fookin amazing actually.
So as long as you go with expectation of ropey vocals (think velvety Mark e Smith) it'll be awseome, god I'm jealous...sold out in 14 minutes!!!
As a mate said to me "Its like the 90's never finsihed" ....there will be some haggard faces and aching heads after that one....
Madchester.... rave on....
