I was reminicsing with my brother about one of the first concerts he and I attended together....1996 - Savage Hall / Toledo, OH. One of the highlights for us was Stone singing Mankind. I checked and it looks like this song has only been performed 39 times.

I would love to have them perform it when I see them this November in Phoenix, AZ.....

LET STONE SING ! ! ! LET STONE SING ! ! ! LET STONE SING ! ! ! LET STONE SING ! ! ! LET STONE SING ! ! !

Who's with me ? ! ? ! ? ! ? !

    I remember when this chant started in London, ON back in '05. Ed said something very true that night. I don't remember the exact quote, but it went something like this: Stone will sing when he wants to. It's not like anyone is telling him not to.
    Stone's a big boy; he'll sing when he feels like it.

    That was a classic moment.

    Ed: "Stone Gossard can sing any time he wants, on any stage. He's waiting for a worthy crowd apparently."

    Stone: "Actually what I always wanted to do was dance..."
    To quote the 10C from Newsletter #8: "Please understand we have a lot of members and it is very hard to please everybody. If you are one of those unhappy people...please call 1-900-IDN-TCAR."

    Whenever we hear Stone singing backup, my husband and I say "Stone can sing any time he wants!" Love this quote! :lol: Right up there with "shoe the shoeless"!

    I was hoping for Stone singing at Wrigley as it was his birthday... Damn rain! :lol:

    Come out as the opener and sing sunburn. Then let Ed do his job.

    Only as backup on Gremmie out of control and that's all I need of his singing.
    Up here so high I start to shake, Up here so high the sky I scrape, I've no fear but for falling down, So look out below I am falling now, Falling down,...not staying down, Could’ve held me up, rather tear me down, Drown in the river

    There is a reason why Ed is the lead singer....let Ed sing, not Stone.
    40+ shows, it is never enough!

    Totally agree 100%. I would also give the same advice to The Who. I guess, a little late at this point.
