    You guys crack me up. Speaking of the New Energy, truly when you think about it: all of his projects have their own distinctive stamp, which of course has to do with the different people with whom he is playing. And yet I also recall comments in interviews where he stated that if he had just continued on the path of his own compositions they would have ended up being increasingly more structured. Instead he consciously decided to open himself up to being affected by the other musicians and their ideas. I recall being really struck by that. After all, I suppose one can go a long way on one's own, but letting in the energy of other people creates, well: SYNERGY, and something entirely new. What a smartie he is! That open-ness to his friends and collaborators also probably is the reason for the LOVE they have, and inspire in all of us, I suppose :)

    WOW! that is truly beautiful Marina. :) It is true what you said. His projects, whether he is just 'guesting' on their album or doing his side project, Brad, you just know it is Stone quality material. You can even hear a song, w/o knowing it belongs to Stone, and you know that distinct music, you can tell ya know?! :D

    I'm glad that you are hear Marina, sharing your thoughts on Stone and his musicship. :)

    hehe. It's comforting isn't it? :p
    I'm glad to have you here too Marina. The more LOVE the better. :)
    And welcome to you as well matete! Stoney Love is a beautiful thing! *sigh*


    What you said before about Stoney is very true Marina. The man is definitely a smart one. :) I mean, I think it would be a sin for this man to limit himself when he just has so much brewing inside...and endless supply of talent on mutiple levels. Being able to be inspired in new ways on a regular basis too and being able ti to get out each and every part of his genius creative being?! What a blessing! As I've said before about him being a musical slut and to quote one of the greatest Stoney songs out there...I've never been so happy about someone "sleeping around". :p

    WHOA! I must say, Stoney w/the ponytail and the hat, WHOA!!
    Ummmm, yeah. Okay so, in Seattle before they hit the big time Mr. Gossard out on an evening (there was a club at which I would see him) would wear said hat or one like it, and this sort of velveteen looking yellow jacket with green and burgundy flowers. At that time there was no goatee, however. Or he would have on the legendary dark brown suede jacket he gave to EV, and no hat. During the day one would see him riding around on his bike in shorts and leggings. All of this with that long brown hair and gigantic green eyes.
    !!Clunk!!! (Sound of me falling off my desk chair at memory...)

    Of course now, as you all have pointed out, his inner Duck has emerged complete with orange Duck t-shirts, Duck plaid pants, and Duck socks.

    You are so very welcome dear Carlie. :)
    That was seriously such a nice way to start the day. :o

    And now ending it with THIS.....

    :eek:! Ooooh...my....god that was incredible! I can't stop smiling. :D Ooooh...my....god! That thing gave me chills, made me tear up, made me bounce and made me scream "YEEEAH!!" at the screen several times. LOOK AT OUR BOY!! Pogo man indeed. haha. Then he starts with the circle action, then backward kicks, then the flicking and just overall out of control arm action....swaying/bobbing that head all over the place. And excuse me..why did he hop over to Mikey and why did they start bouncing and playing to each other?!?!?!Ahhh! :eek: :D ahahhaa. Somebody arrest these guys for being way too god damn cute!!! Awww and the beginning is super cute too..once Stoney stops Pogoing for a sec, Jeff STARTS..then Jeff stops and Mikey STARTS. ha!! :D Passing the Pogo. Too cute! Ok, that performace was seriously STONEYriffic. I'm going back for some more! *bounces up and down*

    Kelly, that video is TOTALLY rad!! POGOStoney pogoing from one side of the stage to the other :p TOO CUTE!!! and did you all notice that at the beginning of the video, he turns around and does his flick and holds his arm up in the air? :o TOO MUCH man!! And I LOVE it how Robert Pollard (ex Guided by Voices frontman) gave Stoney a HUG!! :D

    Marina, I am SO jealous that you got to see Stone up close during that time...*growls like a cat b/c of his sexyness* :p WOW! And remember the SNL performance from 1992?! Wearing his hair in a half of a ponytail and jumping around and getting into the music! And seeing that Cinn. video reminds me and VEDHEAD of the early 90s. :)

    I agree, Nadia! I love when he jumps all around. It's awesome. That's why the earlier stuff is still some of my favorite footage to watch. :D The hug was too much. :o

    Count me in as a jealous one of Marina. Some amazing stories.

    Okay, Stone still, to this day, completely loses me when he starts going into his explanations... but dammit....

    The guy is a fukeen brilliant guitarist and songwriter!!

    He truly has written some of the most memorable opening riffs and melodies in music ever... think about it...

    Alive... it should be time capsuled.

    WOW! :eek: STONEYTELLERS was DA BOMB! Kind of disappointed though that it was only an hour long. me, Pati, and Lydia were like, 'is it over?' :( Hearing Stone talk, I could just listen to him talk for a long time:)

    During Gone, this made me laugh, Stone is sitting down and playing his guitar, at one moment instead of strumming down on the guitar, he plucks, then moves his hand up as if he was playing the harp :p

    PLUS, the duck man was wearing an ORANGE shirt! :eek: i know the instant he started playing Alive, all of us in the room were quiet. Stoney is truly rockin' out!!
