The Plague Doctors are pleased to announce that they will not be attending these shows in either a professional or personal capacity.
Actually, that's not fair, I wouldn't mind going. I used to love The Stone Roses, and John Squire is literally the only guitarist I've ever really thought was any good. The solo from Ten Storey Love Song was the first thing I taught myself on the guitar, closely followed by the intro to This Is The One.
Then I discovered all sorts of other music as well, but I still quite like The Stone Roses, and I'd quite gladly stick my head in at Heaton Park next June if I thought it wasn't going to be full of absolute arseholes. You know who I mean. Oasis fans. Kasabian fans. Football fans. Chanting RO-SES RO-SES RO-SES! Throwing bottles of piss and being unpleasant.
Also, I was a huge Stone Roses fan, but I never liked some of their biggest songs. Fool's Gold isn't even a song, it's just a bassline waiting for something to happen. For ten minutes. And I Wanna Be Adored is gauche and dirgey. So if they leave those two out, I might go.
They've threatened to write some new songs, which I'd be quite interested to hear.
However, I'd be mainly interested in hearing the following songs (apart from the bleeding obvious ones): The Hardest Thing In The World, Standing Here, Going Down, Elephant Stone, Mersey Paradise, Tightrope, How Do You Sleep?, Good Times, Tears, Breaking Into Heaven.
I think this incoherent excitable rant is clear evidence I need to get my arse in gear and buy myself some tickets.
BYE.
