Ian Brown - There Is "No Chance" Of A Stone Roses Reunion

Ian Brown has ruled-out any chance of his former band Stone Roses reforming.

The news comes just a few weeks after former bassist Mani claimed that the remaining member of the Manchester band were willing to reunite.

At the screening of a new Sex Pistols film, Reuters quote the singer saying of the reunion plans: "No chance... not in the next three lifetimes."

Brown also went on to discuss the impact of the punk band: "The Sex Pistols are the best band that's ever been. I think they've got the best set of songs any band has had, any time."

"They showed us as kids... that you didn't have to be some middle-class virtuoso musician."

"It was all about expressing yourself and it didn't matter where you came from - you could get into music and that's what [they] showed us."
