Oasis Pay Tribute to Stone Roses' Mani in Brazil
Oasis paid tribute to Stone Roses bassist Mani Mounfield during their recent reunion gigs in São Paulo, Brazil. The gesture highlighted Mounfield's significant contribution and status as a defining bass player of his generation.
The band's acknowledgement of Mani, whose real name is Gary Mounfield, occurred during performances at Allianz Parque. Details of the specific tribute were not immediately available, but the gesture was widely noted by fans and music observers present at the shows.
Mani Mounfield was a key member of The Stone Roses, a hugely influential band from the Madchester scene of the late 1980s and early 1990s. His basslines are considered integral to the band's distinctive sound and iconic albums like 'The Stone Roses' and 'Second Coming'. He departed the band in 1995, and has since been involved in various musical projects.
Oasis’ reunion concerts in São Paulo marked a significant event for fans, with the band performing to large crowds. The inclusion of this tribute to Mani underscores the interconnectedness and shared history within the British music scene, particularly concerning bands from the Madchester era. The performances were part of a wider South American tour for the reunited Oasis.
