No Stone Roses reunion? Shocking!

Everyone from the Police to the Verve have reunited in recent years, but don’t expect the legendary British indie band the Stone Roses to reform any time soon.
In a interview with Reuters last week, former Roses front man and current solo artist Ian Brown said there is “no chance” of a reunion of the band that disbanded in the mid-‘90s after redefining British indie almost two decades ago.

“Not in the next three lifetimes,” Brown told the press.

Translation: Bet on a Stone Roses reunion by 2010, as a headlining appearance at a cash-cow UK festival like Reading. Hey, everyone’s got bills to pay, and everyone stopped buying "Second Coming" three weeks after its release.
