  • Stone's the shit. 

    If flash is what you're after, there's no shortage of other bands out there to go see live.

    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 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.

    Stone asks his dentist to floss more often
  • Stone doesn't get brain freeze from ice cream.
  • Stone Gossard farts award winning, face-melting riffs in his sleep…

    Ohhhhohhhhohhhhh listen to the music..........

    Stone has been vanilla for 20 years, why is it a shock?  He is boring to watch unless  you want his orgasm face neck thing to make your night.  I'd rather watch Stone at a PJ show over anyone else at a non PJ show though
