Welcome one and all to the grand finale of Stone Week 2023! I'm SO excited and honored to share this conversation between Stone and me as we teach you, in tandem, to play the beautiful song Ten Years From Now from Painted Shield's first record. If you know anything about me, you know that Stone Gossard is the reason I picked up a guitar, and anything I say about what a good time this was and what a pleasure it is to know him wouldn't hold a candle to what it means to me. Therefore I won't even try. But I will express that I hope you enjoy this as much as I enjoyed making it

Ryan is truly an incredible human and a great guitar teacher. I’ve had the honor of jamming with him and even recorded some drums for him. Great watch!!

I just recently used Ryan’s video to do a cover of “Spiderwebs” by No Doubt haha

I’ve learned the basics of so many songs watching Ryan’s lessons. Awesome stuff.

Until 5 years ago, I had never held a guitar and wouldn't have questioned it if someone told me a song was in the key of P.

And it's mostly thanks to Ryan that I can now play a fair fraction of the PJ catalog, and occasionally even try to write my own riffs. His way of teaching (even if you aren't a PJ fan) is so full of heart and kindness. Love that Stone worked with him on this, though it's hilarious to imagine Stone hurriedly googling "how to play sleight of hand pearl jam guitar lesson" minutes before a show.

Love to see others who have learned so much from Ryan. He’s fantastic and a very kind and funny person.
