    stone is without a doubt the most talented musician in the band. i think it's safe to say and almost guarantee he gets bored repeatedly playing most of PJ's live staples (DTE, evenflow, alive, given to fly, etc, etc, etc) which is interesting because at the same time he is the most thick headed in the band when playing their more obscure songs that hardly see any love live. his on stage debates with ed are classic and stone always wins. you would think he would be more willing to play some of those tracks we haven't been treated to live in a long time (looking at you binaural and riot act).

    i don't think he is mailing anything in live. he just gets in a groove and let's mike and ed be the showman.

    This.
    I remember interviews where he said if it were up to him he'd like to mix it up more than just playing the hits....
    Then...
    The No Way debate at PJ20 was classic. Not sure why Stone wouldn't want to play his own song. Everyone else was on board and he was like "nope".
    He lost that debate! hahaha
    I remember holding up a "Hard To Imagine" sign at the 1998 B'Ham show. I was on Mike's side but Stone saw it and starting shaking his head "No". I don't know why he downplays/doesn't like to play his own stuff.

    It's kinda strange.

    My buddy and I used to joke about Stone's "duckwalk": the way he kind off marches in place and bobs his head while playing. Now that I'm (finally) learning to play guitar, I've found it's a great way to keep time. I like Stone. Someone else said this already, but definitely the member of the band I think I'd most like to hang with. Seems like a chill dude. Stone Zone.

    With a band like this, probably not, although Fatal seems like a song of solitude

    He seemed to be having a great time in Portland last year.
    "There's a $10,000 bill in it for you."
    "Oh yeah? Which president's on it?"
    "Uh, all of them. They're having a party. Jimmy Carter's passed out on the couch."

    Given the choice, I will take Stone every day of the week and twice on Stonedays.

    Mike is all about the flash.

    Stone is all about the class.

    Anything you lose from being honest
    You never really had to begin with.


    Sometimes it's not the song that makes you emotional it's the people and things that come to your mind when you hear it.
