    "Being here with the band, who have become some of my best friends in the process, making music and art, traveling the world, supporting causes and programs together, making small differences, meeting great artists and creative minds all over the world. That's a pretty great fucking life." Jeff Ament

    Sums it up.

    Definitely leaning towards Jeff for this and his shirt. He didn't talk long, but what he said and didn't say, covered it pretty good.
    It's a hopeless situation...

    Stone's was incredible. The others weren't bad, but watch Stone's speech...understand that and you'll understand what drives them and what makes them great.

    Mike's was cool too, but I've heard him speak that candidly in the past.

    I thought Ed's was a little cheesy.

    In addition to others already mentioned, Dhani Harrison did a great job. Loved hearing his firsthand accounts of George/Jeff Lynne stories.

    I'm sorry but Pharrell was very bad. Either he was nervous or did not prepare enough.

    Stone, cause he thanked everyone that counted to the band (so i think). knowing the names of people that work/help your day to day issues are key to your success.
    but i was listening to a youtube recording with some loud lady screaming

    I tried watching that same video on YouTube but had to turn it off. Couldn't take any more of that damn woman yelling wooooooo!

    He was just trying to come up with a recent song that actually had a lot of radio play, and Sirens was his only option.
