If it wasnt for them the music scene in Manchester wouldnt be what it is today !
The Hacienda wouldnt of been as big as it was either if it were not for the Stone Roses!

They changed the music scene not only in Manchester, but the north.

You live in some far off land Miles and are detached from reality. Fact

Next you will tell me that your happy Steps have reformed
No, New Order were the band that made the Manchester scene for me. They innovated, sold bucketloads and wrote great songs. Heck they even owned the Hacienda. The Stone Roses weren't a patch on a band like New Order IMO. A well recieved debut and a superbly tongue lashed follow up does not a great band make. The Stone Roses are like Shed Seven in terms of quality and I say that with a semi straight face. I've just never understood the appeal, but I wasn't around at the time and haven't listened to them on drugs.

What have Steps got to do with the debate? I despise all teenybopper horror and leave that for Bilbo to experiment with. I'm sure he is following H for all the latest semi-homo fashions in order to entice young lady folk. As for me, I stand proud with my Smiths albums and my Morrissey poster in the bathroom.
Smiths and Morrisey, well that just confirms it then, you have No musical taste
