How cool is Jeff?!

When I first saw the documentary, I thought immediately after how Jeff is just the epitome of cool. The definition of keeping it real. I have a new found appreciation for him, as he doesn't always get as much press time as he should. I felt like he was down to earth, honest, and a laid back guy that you can't help but like.

I hope one day I get to meet him and tell him how much of a badass he is.

Anyone else think the same thing after seeing the movie?

    Yes!

    I felt I could see his heart, very down to earth, like you say real and just plain sweet

    I love when the big bass comes out!

    I agree with both of you. Just watched PJ20 again Friday night, and the one thing that my hubby said to me (he finally agreed to watch with me- he is not a PJ fan but I am still trying to convert him) is that they are all such a great group of guys, so down to earth and humble. Jeff is very cool, very down to earth. Definitely enjoyed getting to know him a bit through PJ20.

    I've met Jeff and Ed on different occasions and both are great guys. But there's something about Jeff; he was just so patient (with my temporary insanity), grounded and genuine overall that he's by far my favorite guy in the band. He made a real long-lasting impression on me, and I consider myself very lucky to have met him. :D
    The movie just emphasized what a great guy he is.

    yeah he always seems so down to earth and chilled out but I think he's very conscious of not taking himself too seriously
    I don't mean to offend anyone, a lot of what I say should be taken with a grain of salt... that said for most of you I'm a stranger on a computer on the other side of the world, don't give me that sort of power!

    Jeff is Eddie's sidekick, you have to be cool to be Eddie's sidekick... on the movie he showed himself as a very down to earth person, very supportive of Eddie's attitude towards the Grammy, he gave a very sensible explanation... you don't have to be extremely fun and out-going to be cool, Jeff doesn't need to, and of course he is cool...
    ... I am not in the business of being liked anymore ...

    I liked his quote on PJ20 about awards for art and how he dislikes that.

    He is definitely my biggest inspiration in bass playing. Knows how to make the bass fit perfectly with each song.

    He made one of the greatest comments I've ever heard, in SVT, how music is healing art form

    something like that anyway and I couldn't agree more! He's one cool dude.
