The Stone Roses bassist Mani 'finds £2 million in bank account'

The Stone Roses bassist Mani has confessed that he didn't realise his tour advance payment would be so big.

The star revealed that he went to a cashpoint to withdraw money for food shopping only to discover that £2 million had been deposited into his account, reports The Sun.

Mani told his friends back home in Stockport: "It's madness. I only went out to buy milk and things. I went to the cashpoint and someone has stuck nearly £2 million in while I wasn't looking.

"The whole world's gone crazy. I could have fallen over backwards when I saw the balance."

The band were aware that they would receive an advance from the high sales of their reunion tour and festival dates, but did not know it would be as much as they have been given.

In December, The Stone Roses signed record deals in the UK and US for new material, which is expected to be released later this year.
