Stone Roses frontmen reunite
28/03/2005 - 13:58:40British rocker Ian Brown was joined by ex-Stone Roses bandmate Mani on Thursday night for a wild gig kickstarting Brown's King Monkey's US Tour.
The performance also held a particular significance for the pair, as the venue they played was the site of their first major gig in 1989.
Brown put tensions between himself and the bassist, now a member of Primal Scream, behind him for the evening as the indie rock pioneers thrilled the audience at the Blackpool Empress Ballroom.
They played Roses favourite I Wanna Be Adored, concluding a night of Brown's solo hits mingled with Stone Roses classics. The tour is in support of Brown's latest solo album, Solarized.
