Stone Roses Reunion Speculation Shot Down

04/08/2011
. (Gibson) For a brief but glorious day, it seemed the world might just drift back to 1990 with the report that singer Ian Brown and guitarist John Squire had buried the hatchet, clearing the way for a Stone Roses reunion.

With a firsthand account from Cliff Boon of Inspiral Carpets that the two met at bassist Mani's mother's funeral, fans had reason to hope for the seemingly impossible reunion. But those rumors have now been quashed by Mani.

Speaking to NME, the current Primal Scream bassist said, "I'm disgusted that my personal grief has been invaded and hijacked by these nonsensical stories. Two old friends meeting up after 15 years to pay their respects to my mother does not constitute the reformation of The Stone Roses. Please (expletive) off and leave it alone. It isn't true and isn't happening."
