I would 100% have to write down questions and do an interview for the 10c forum or have some gimmick like that for it to not be terrible for the both of us. What a good guy for being able to endure stuff like that willingly.

Same thoughts here... ”so uh... did you just need to pee real bad at the end of Wrigley 2 2018 or were you mad about playing in the rain?”

At first, I thought that there would be no problem with breakfast. After all, why not just talk about stuff I would talk with any new person about?
Then I realized that anything I asked beyond the most blandly superficial could come across as really intrusive and stalker-ish,like I'm going to sell every morsel of information to TMZ.
Ooof.
We're back to "so, Stone, what's your opinion of the merits of multigrain versus sourdough?"
my small self... like a book amongst the many on a shelf
I'd do it like when lunch with Larry was auctioned off on Curb, but I'd be Larry and Stone would be the poor guy championing Groat's Disease research. One of my favorite scenes EVER.
Fantasy: You win the breakfast with Stone and are seated across from him enjoying an orange juice at a tiny table in a sunny breakfast nook amidst orchids and ferns
Reality: You are sitting at the end of a long banquet table and if you adjust your glasses just right, you can make out Stone, surrounded by security and wearing a velour bathrobe. In his left hand is a scepter, terminated atop by what looks like a milk cow wrestling a cobra. In his right hand he holds a golden chalice. A single shaft of light from the high windows is refracted through what must be a Super Bowl X ring and illuminates a sunburst Les Paul off in the corner of the giant banquet room. The dusty string of sunbeam makes it glow like it’s illuminated from within and you suddenly realize you have no idea what Ovaltine even is or just why someone would have spiked yours..
What a treat it would be to dine and chat with this man. He seems like an intelligent guy with a sense of humour. And I agree, what a good guy to take this on.
I hope I’m that weirdo. I don’t know what a right weirdo is.
Seriously, what do you talk about? Try and get some requests in? Social issues? Music? Weed? He really must have pulled the shortest straw cause if I was him this would just sound horrible.
Zero desire for this to be arranged for myself -- now, if I happened to sit down next to someone and notice it was SG? It would be on and would have no issue engaging in conversation and feeling comfortable or not having conversation if he was uninterested, same as I would in any situation.
To have someone agree to have breakfast with me, as a fan of him and his band? Just feel that would be too awkward for me to enjoy and want any part of, although I applaud his effort to want to support the fund raising with such an activity. From his side the potential for it being strange would seem much, much, higher! Good for him for doing this...and I hope he enjoys however it ends up going down or at least finds it tolerable.
I think mostly just treat the dude like a normal person. I'd bet he ask a lot of questions and drive the conversation.
I was literally about to post this. Just chat with him. Ask him how the tour is going. If you were at one of the Canadian shows, there's probably something that happened that you can ask about. Failing that, shoot the shit about sports, cars, whatever. It doesn't have to be a deep, meaningful conversation. Stone's just this guy, you know?
"I'm a lucky man, to count on both hands the [shows I've done]. Some folks just have one, others they got none..."
i'd ask what the hell they do with the downtime on the road and what a normal day is like not touring or recording. what the heck do these guys do on a normal day? i've always wondered this.

One thing for sure. I would go Stoned to have breakfast with Stone. Hopefully we puff puff pass together before grubbing down on some omelets and coffee. Then I would throw in a request for wash, hard to imagine and sleight of hand.
Then I wake up from that beautiful dream and realize I’m not going. Shit
