  • Stone was pretty animated in Louisville, and had some good banter with the crowd at the very end. He's just a mellow guy.

    I agree with the genera idea of the post, it’s just too harsh. He’s not a stick in the mid for not wanting to be more flashy. But we all know everyone prefers Mike’s side.

    No way, I loved Stone’s side just as much as Mike’s! His mimics while playing are hilarious, he looked like he had tons of fun and the other guys came over as well, especially Ed a lot.

    I just love Stone's butt. Rock hard.

    One should feel honored he presented his backside to the crowd for the majority of the concert.

    He was THE reason they didn’t play Leash in Toronto though. Just sayin’.

    ...what a freakin' stick in the mud and didn't move around at all.  Not even his little duck moves.  I was in the first section off the floor and he had his back to us the entire show, just standing next to the drum kit all night.  Hell, Matt covered more ground around the stage than him.  The OKC show was great and Eddie was in a good mood, but this guy needs to at least pretend he wants to play live in front of people.  Mike was great as usual, but there must be a new Stone rule that Mike and Jeff aren't allowed on his side of the stage.  
    if your sole purpose on a concert is to watch people run around on stage then sure I guess this is disappointing.  But if you are there to hear music you might be in store for a different experience.
    His eminence has yet to show.

    He's also pissed that Pearl Jam hasn't played Atlantic Canada for the last 17 years!

    Though if you told him how mind blowing it is that they haven't played Maine since 1996 ...

    I know. I got all excited because Leash would have completed Vs for me. Luckily, I got it in Camden.

    I watched a fan video of the whole show (shot from Mike's side stage) over the weekend & it was great! BIG thank you to whoever recorded the whole thing!! In any case, Stone was rocking out. Sure, maybe he doesn't jump around or go into the crowd....has he ever? Stone is the best. He's the reason I first picked up a guitar.
    I LOVE MUSIC.

    I love being in front of Stone too.  He just sits there with that sarcastic smirk, watching what's happening around him.  I love it.  And then when he plays a solo, he gets his best "Oh" face going for that brief time.  It's so funny.  Mike can be almost cartoonish, he's having so much fun.  They are like yin and yang and it works perfectly.

    IDK what's out there for boy bands these days, but they usually have some pretty sweet dance moves as well.

    It's what I think of if someone says "Stone".  He was flicking that shit.
