Manchester’s legendary Stone Roses have been confirmed to play Budapest's Sziget Festival nr. 20.
The Stone Roses are one of the pioneers of guitar pop’s ‘Madchester’ era, ruling the scene of the late 80’s and early 90’s. Their comeback was announced earlier this year in October and quickly hit major music media headlines with the plan of their forthcoming world tour.
The first triple-gig of the tour is set for Heaton Park in Manchester, with the initial 2 nights selling out in less than 15 minutes. Not a bad sign, considering the capacity of 150.000. Another interesting fact, The Stone Roses record sales grew with an unbelievable 1000% after announcing the reunion.
Fri June 29th 2012 - Heaton Park, Manchester
Sat June 30th 2012 - Heaton Park, Manchester
Sun July 1st 2012 - Heaton Park, Manchester
