There's no doubt though that all three guitar players in PJ (including Eddie) are sloppy as hell.

When you go to concerts, do you do this kind of critiquing? If so I almost feel bad for you.

No, when I'm there I just enjoy the show and go crazy, but listening to boots more objectively...

Also for sloppy Stone playing look up almost any Black intro. That was my favorite PJ song and when I first started listening to boots I was SO disappointed.

I think the more you listen the more you forget how bad it sounds the first time you hear it.

lol wut. THAT is what you pick out as bad playing? The intro to black?

Hilarious.

I'm kinda with you here. When the opening of a song is sloppy or too fast or otherwise off, I notice it right away because I am so conditioned to hearing it the studio way. The opening to Black tends to lack feeling nowadays, like a paint-by-numbers performance, and that is on Stone.

every other member of PJ can be replaced except for Stone

Stone is fucking awesome. He was always great in all the shows i saw live.

Stone is my friend's favorite member of the band after seeing them a grand total of one time.

First time i saw PJ Ed was saying something like ..¨you guys are awesome..¨and Stone said to the crowd ¨he is full of shit¨.

So fucking cool.

and he was right

to this day

Stone sucked the teat. End of story.

I thought Ed sounded horrible during IMT and then i saw the video and he was actually pretty good.

Overall i think the band sounded great both nights.

Loved:

Won't Back Down bit

Liked:

Pearl Jam on shuffle
The hot women at the show
The hot black dudes at the show
Drinking outside the venue during the rain

Didn't Like:

People not getting into it around me (i think i screamed 'lets fucking go' like 300 times)
Feeling bad i didn't take my wife Saturday for her birthday.
Work Tuesday morning

Despise:

Watching older women really get into 'Come Back'
