This is the one you’ve been waiting for. Manchester legends The Stone Roses will play Australia’s most famous concert venue this December.

Ian Brown, John Squire, Mani and Reni will perform ‘in the round’ over three nights at the Sydney Opera House, sharing classics from their debut self-titled album plus 1994’sSecond Comingand their latest slew of new material.

The Roses were an incredibly influential presence on the Madchester and Britpop scenes of the late ’80s and early ’90s, and their Sydney dates will no doubt have all the lads and ladettes of Australia going mad fer it.
