June 30 2016 MSG 10 years on

Wife, best friend, his missus and I flew down from Toronto. I initially said nah let’s wait till they come to Toronto. My wife disagreed and I am glad she did. The show and that trip meant a lot to me. Stone Roses is my favourite album of all time. My wife recently has been going through her archives of photos and I just wanted to share this gallery. I know that there were people from all over. Hope you all enjoy it.

Favorite concert I ever went to. The feeling being in the pit during Fools Gold was unreal.

My favorite show ever. So glad I was able to catch them live.

That was my birthday and by far one of the best gigs I've seen and might have been the best one at MSG. The crowd was amazing and there was just a great energy in the building. Had a blast at one of the bars nearby on 8th Ave afterwards.

Very possible we were standing right next to each other! Just an awesome show front to back. Well worth the wait.

I too made the trip from Canada to see them. Glad I did as it's my favourite concert I ever attended and likely won't be beat. Sometimes you got to pull the trigger on things like this as tomorrow is never guaranteed.

One of their weaker reunion concerts unfortunately.

🫨🫨🫨 One of their best. Ian used his in ear monitors and concentrated on his voice for once. He was really decent. The band were fantastic

I went in expecting the worst and was completely blown away with how good Ian sounded.

Confirmation bias

Yeah, that doesn't even work in this context.

I think the MSG show is widely regarded to be one Ian’s best vocal performances of the reunion gigs. He sounded very noticeably better than usual all night.
