The stone roses

[CaledonianGonzo]

Hoping that word spreading about the decline in quality at La Grande Bouffe will make bagging a ticket easier this year, but it'll probably be cancelled out by the armies of hardcore Diana Ross fans signing up.

Does anybody know if AXS is a genuine ticket site? Their is a link to it from the independent website on an article and it puts you in a virtual waiting room, but the roses website only links to gigs and tours?

[CaledonianGonzo]

It is genuine, yes.

No worries. Also links on AXS, Ticketmaster, Ticketline, Gigantic, Eventim andStargreen apparently.

Good luck!!

I had one and thought it was spot on. 

 

A grand bouffe not a Diana Ross fan. 

Mine was all salad and bread and different, non pink sausages.

A tartiflette shambles, an Alpine apocalypse, a Jack White gig of a dinner.

The Roses had far, far better and more famous songs than the Mondays. Yes their live reputation was shambolic at times, but even in the years in between the split and the reunion you would hear far more Roses songs out than you would Happy Mondays. Not even comparable. 

Lets agree to disagree. The Roses ended in an absolute shambles and because of their inactivity, their appeal has grew exponentially.

Hype is a wonderful tool.

Ha, same thing happened to me, AXS said standing all gone but then got through on gigs and tours and got standing.

My first outdoor gig. Got a coach from Worcester. Think The Farm were the support. Got a coach back. Hadn't then prepared how to get back to my village, so knocked on the door of the homeless shelter. As a 16 yr old this seemed like a good thing to do. They were very welcoming. 

 

Edit: actually maybe 15...

Gigantic still got Wembley tickets and no messing about getting through if anyone is still bothered?

So are a lot for live bands though and it's Ian's voice tbf, not the rest of the band.

When I checked about 10 mins ago all the standing had gone at Wembley but other seats were still available

Well I've do my bit ha, had all tickets left when I posted!

[Embabs]

Are gigs and tours reliable? Anyone used them before?

Seetickets keeps having them and not but I don't expect either date to be left soon after lunch.

People know Glastonbury is on but if they don't get a ticket to either they fail. They may well eBay then but for the band a sellout is needed regardless.

Exactly, if I get Glastonbury tickets and they play I may well sell mine (will sell them face value to friends as I got two for friends who won't be going to going to glasto) But unfortunately I had much better odds of getting them today than I will getting Glastonbury tickets so then doing Glastonbury makes less to no difference.

Yep, think they are owned by ticketmaster or one of the other big companies.

edit, maybe not actually, but they are legit.
