    That's so great! What an awesome picture of the two of you -- I like Stone's longer hair -- and of course it's always great to hear that the guys are nice to their fans, obsessive though we may be. :)

    I am laughing at the fact that so many people on here already are making plans and clearing their calendars for a 20th anniversary show, and the occasion was not even on Stone's radar. :lol:

    i like your writting style :) nice meet up!

    'I'm 30 so to meet him was one of those rare moments when you meet a childhood hero who's still your hero in adulthood AND he turns out to be just as cool a guy as you'd imagined him to be. He was all smiles and didn't seem jaded in anyway. He still seemed to radiate a great passion for his fans and their interest in his band even after all these years. My hat's off to ya, Stone. Thanks again for being so cool and for all the ways you've enriched my life with your music.

    Man, just when I thought I couldn't love this band anymore than I already did...'

    very cool.

    No he wasn't mean to me at all, he was actually REALLY nice to me the first couple of times that i met him, the last time i met him he just seemed in a bad mood, and was a bit snippy.. but things got better, i actually got a chance to apologize for upsetting him ( not knowing if i had or not, i thought it best to apologise, that's just how i am)

    He was really nice about it, and we had a quick conversation.


    I just really wish i had the chance to meet him now, and perhaps act a bit differently... :oops: :oops:
