The thing with the roses is that's its like following a football team with them. It's not about standing there open mouthed with your cock out at the lead singer putting on a great cabaret show a la Chris Martin. The roses have this certain mystique about them and I'm talking personally here that when I went to see them at Heaton park it was purely to witness these four guys together sharing the stage after years of mud slinging and sniping, just seeing them together was amazing. The show itself was great and they seemed really tight after years apart but the roses for me are purely the joy and upliftment that they give me and not about the singer being a Jack in the box for 90mins and entertaining the crowd.
These shows are a testament to what I said. 60,000 people every night for four nights to see a band that haven't released and album in 22 years. Not bad when the lead singer gets slated for being shite.
