    your sign totally kicks ASS!! :D

    those pics, OMG, i can't believe you were THAT close?! And I am SO jealous, you got Stoney to do a little dance for you...damn, how many of us would have wanted that :p

    Not only that... I shutter with joy a little bit everytime I think about the fact that Stone touched the cell phone I use everyday. Heh, totally sound (and feel) like a smitten schoolgirl.

    hehe. Stone TOUCHED your cell phone, I would be the same way haha.

    welcome to the club. my partner-in-crime, VEDHEAD27 and I were at the NYC shows in 2003, we brought our Stone signs, 18th row in MSG, and after Cropduster, Stone looked and waved at us. I was just frozen and freaked out. I didn't think he did, but the guys behind us said he was looking at us. haha. Pretty cool moment there :D

    I remember you both telling me this after the show....almost made me deaf with your excitement hahahaha. Sooo happy for you.

    You gotta get back on AIM some time...Haven't spoken to you since I went to VFC shows....got a sweet Stoney story for you! I finally got one of his picks from the man himself. :)

    Stoney is so fun to watch on stage these days...long gone are the days of strictly the duck walk haha...and YES he does look at the crowd people, as Nadi's story proves...plus he sooo knows my face now...says hi to me from the stage at like every show I'm close enough for him to see me at haha.

    Anyways this band wouldn't be the band it is without him. I mean could you imagine life without Black (I know Ed wrote the lyrics), All Or None, Thin air and many others?? I know I can't. All hail the duckman....Hail Stoney!!

    OMG, don't remind me hahahaha. <---practically laughing here :p

    Hell man, STONEY is an AWESOME guitar player, not good, but AWESOME!! This man has been playing since he was 17 yrs. old, and he surely has the knack for it. Hear his solo album, Bayleaf, this will make you a Stone believer..that this man has this beautiful talent...especially on the title track..he makes that guitar cry. And need I mention he played ALL the instruments on his debut album. YEP! that is our stoney boy!!

    Sure, he doesn't wail like Mike, but that is b/c he gives Mike the solos he writes, and the spotlight;) thus Mikey puts his own spin on them :D You see, they are guitar soulmates :)

    STONEY pics from his solo show last year. Wooohoo!!! MEDDLE and I were right up on the tiny ass stage. :eek: The mighty riff-master was inches from us (drinking his Bud-LIGHT?!?! haha!!! What in the?! :p ). Seeing this man in that tight, intimate setting though?!?! :o Wow! And hearing BAYLEAF songs and frickin THIN AIR!!! :eek: *faints* *flys away* BEAUTIFUL! Shit was incredible and soooo damn worth the 13 hour car ride :D


    <~~~ hard to the CORE dedicated STONEY PONY :p


    Here's one of my absolute favs from BAYLEAF (and the man in general)...one he busted at at the solo show too! Hearing this live = blessing.

    His voice is so gentle and soothing on this song, "aaah aaah aaah". BEAUTIFUL! This combined with the gorgeous guitar and piano just makes for absolute heaven. Soooo chill. When he hits the "how to take it all in stride..." part! :o Love it!!


    THANK YOU STONEY!!!

    Ω --ANCHORS-- Ω

    the hopeless immortal's beginning to fade
    wrestled down with anchors, impervious chains
    the ocean's electric reduced to a buzz
    the pills turn the popper, he probably would
    the standoff mechanic of cognisance, sighs
    mulls brooding through the alleyway, a harbinger's night
    he pulled the remains, and teeth from the tree
    when he sat down in memphis, he bound it on a hill
    how to take it all in stride, win your soul and mind the light
    how to live around the storm, wind and pressures to befall
    here's a question you might need to ask
    what's self destruction and how can we last?

    EXCELLENT choice in song Lydi!! :D We can't forget about Stoney solo, one of the FINEST and underappreciated albums of ALL time!! This man just pours it out like fine wine :)

    and stoneg, when you make a Stoney thread, you know you are BOUND to get some responses, so thank U for making this awesome blossom thread!! :D

    This man is a workalcoholic!! His stuff w/Brad is phemonal. Sheepish is one of the saddest songs on Welcome to Discovery Park. Truly this man just writes and writes these songs from the heart.
