Gossard casts a pretty long shadow across the history of grunge and the music scene in Seattle. He was instrumental in the creation of some seminal grunge albums (TOTD, Apple, Ten). He's also done some excellent side projects like Brad with Regan Hagar and was the man who produced the single Malfunkshun album featuring the late Andy Wood.
I’m surprised Regan didn’t end up in Pearl Jam or another big band. I mean PJ went through 5 or 6 drummers over the years and a lot of it is picking someone who fits in with the band and seems like everyone on the scene was cool with him
Stone looked so cool during the yield tour I feel like the ticketmaster idea was from Stone he seemed to be the most passionate about it His court testimony especially People forget that even in the 10 movie Stone clearly states that " in the beginning it was Jeff n stone running the band " and then " now ..ed runs the band" Anyone can listen to mother love bone and then Ed's solo material and then compare to the 10 album Ten was Jeff and Stones heart n soul in that music ed was writing but those Jeff n Stone riffs are what shaped this band I'm all for the band evolving but it's clear ed is running the bands direction I just feel that the current high tax prices are reflective of ed choosing that I think ed got divorced ? It costs these guys $to live just like it costs me $ being homeless I just wish it was affordable for a guy like me on a miniscule budget to follow the band on tour I'd be doing that rn if I didn't live off roughly $130 a week lol
he’s treading carefully to avoid legal complications. eddie on the other hand almost never knows what to say, when they’re interviewed together, stone keeps it on track 😆
Stoney is articulate but seems that dealing with media is a chore for him. Maybe stressed because he doesn’t trust them. He’s definitely cautious of what he says and how he says it.
Ticket Master was and is a total monopoly! Stone said in this interview that they will have to use Ticket Master in some places because that is the only choice! That is a true definition of a monopoly!
@Dbomb Danny Because the larger better venues were only using Ticket Master at the time. They were forced to use them, and when they didn't they were at shity venues that were old, unsafe, and mismanaged. I was there I remember all of this.
This popped up in my suggested videos...since Chris Cornell passed I have been feeling kind of nostalgic for the 90's. it gives me comfort. I had a crush on Stone when I was kid ha.
Pearl Jam died in the ass when Eddie began playing guitar. The music quality went down when he stopped focusing on the singing and lyrics and more on the music. They had it covered without him.
@allright715 I get what the OP is saying. I’ve also long believed the band lost the plot when they ceded creative control to their singer. And, when Irons left.
They always said from the beginning that they wanted to explore new music and grow and didn’t want to be stuck in the same sound or style forever. Maybe we just never understood the plot.
@@Fakename70 creative control was never ceded to or by any singular individual. Irons leaving does not change this. Congrats on that ‘lukewarm’ take though.
@@timmatthews1604 I can tell you’re a triggered fan. But, Ament and Gossard have both been quoted as saying their singer essentially is in the drivers seat and the rest of the band is following his lead. That’s a full 180 degrees different from how Yield was created. Note how they’ve not done anything even remotely as solid as that since.
@@Fakename70 Eddie became the defacto leader during vitalogy, well before yield was even a concept. He also is the reason Jack irons was brought in as a drummer for yield. So your theory that he screwed up their music after he ‘took control’ is just silly. In fact, according to Jeff, Eddie asked them all to write and contribute more songs after no code, which is why yield and the albums after each have 3 or 4 songs written by each of them. Have you not seen any of their documentaries? Wikipedia lists all their songs by album and who wrote the lyrics and music for each one. You might be surprised how much of the music is not written by Eddie.
They can't downplay they media for that Ticketmaster thing. They made sure they were heard. Still, the band that changed the course of my life forever.
I love listening to stone talk about ticketmaster, but I have one bone to pick... the attitude towards stardom in the 90s and keeping everything affordable for their fans... what happened to that in the 2000s onwards? PJ Tickets and merch now costs the earth right?
I liked him better back then. As a matter of fact, I liked all of them better back then. Funny how much their merch costs, and especially since they are sellouts and do things like sell holiday themed t-shirts, etc. Hell, they even went so far as to sell a Cinco de Mayo shirt. And, the t-shirts aren't cheap.
Stoney and Jeff paid their dues and deserve to earn from their hardwork. Vedder on the other hand never paid any dues. Somehow he slid into Andy’s spot
Sadly their tickets are so fucking expensive now. My wife for my 30th birthday bought me and two friends tickets, it was like $1,200 don't get me wrong it was worth it but freaking a. To put on a show that big I guess I get it but I wish it wasn't so expensive because these guys rule
Stoney and Jeff are Pearl Jam. Vedder gets all the credit for their success even though his material killed the band. Why they let him write songs is beyond me
Yield is a favorite for many. Myself included. Some of their best work. However, I completely understand why some other folks are turned off by the album.
he wrote some of the most iconic guitar riffs to come out the early 90's
could you drop some names please?
Are you unfamiliar with Pearl Jam’s records? Stone contributed the majority of the instrumental component..

YES❣️
And green river
I’m surprised Regan didn’t end up in Pearl Jam or another big band. I mean PJ went through 5 or 6 drummers over the years and a lot of it is picking someone who fits in with the band and seems like everyone on the scene was cool with him
He looks so good in here😏
Stone looked so cool during the yield tour
I feel like the ticketmaster idea was from Stone he seemed to be the most passionate about it
His court testimony especially
People forget that even in the 10 movie Stone clearly states that " in the beginning it was Jeff n stone running the band " and then " now ..ed runs the band"
Anyone can listen to mother love bone and then Ed's solo material and then compare to the 10 album
Ten was Jeff and Stones heart n soul in that music ed was writing but those Jeff n Stone riffs are what shaped this band
I'm all for the band evolving but it's clear ed is running the bands direction
I just feel that the current high tax prices are reflective of ed choosing that
I think ed got divorced ? It costs these guys $to live just like it costs me $ being homeless
I just wish it was affordable for a guy like me on a miniscule budget to follow the band on tour
I'd be doing that rn if I didn't live off roughly $130 a week lol
He seems like a nice guy who sometimes doesn't know what to say. I can kinda relate to Stone tbh.
"If you can't say anything nice, don't say anything at all", but that makes it even harder when you can't think of anything to say :-/
He’s just very introspective. A man who likes to be sure of what he says and thinks carefully before constructing statements.

Get a hold of a copy of "Single Video Theory" for an interesting look into the making of Yield.
It’s on iTunes now and Amazon prime.
funny enough, almost 20 years later, I have just paid a fortune to listen to Eddie and buy his T-shirt...

Stone will always be a pretty princess, love him
He is so effortlessly sublime and cool.
real

Stone looks better with a long hair 🥰
god love ya! stone is life. I live for stoney videos. thanks!
all those yesterdays - that song is perfect Pearl Jam!
sexiest man in the world
hell yeah
Really? In the world? Hmm. Have you ever left your front porch?
Actually, Stone IS super sexy, intelligent, kind, secure enough not to need to pose.
Thank you for dispelling the myth that Pearl Jam sued Ticketmaster.
Thank you, pjvideoguy! I LOVE their interviews!
You guys are so awesome, ❤️ much!! I am so happy to hear Stone explain, thanks for sharing....
Yield is a cool album.
The package is nice, too I own a copy

Is that the coolest wristwatch or what?
Uuuuuh.....uhm....uuhh.....uhm...uuuuh, uhmv.....uhm...and er....um
Great upload
Now selling tickets for 180 € apiece (200 USD) for the Berlin show via Ticketmaster. What happened to fighting the good fight??
Sadly their tickets are so fucking expensive now. My wife for my 30th birthday bought me and two friends tickets, it was like $1,200 don't get me wrong it was worth it but freaking a. To put on a show that big I guess I get it but I wish it wasn't so expensive because these guys rule
Thanks for posting this!! ❤
No worries. Recent find on a random tape I got from Japan years ago.
The brain of Pearl Jam
And composer and great musician.
Stoney and Jeff are Pearl Jam. Vedder gets all the credit for their success even though his material killed the band. Why they let him write songs is beyond me
Yep. Just registered for tix for Pearl Jam in Auckland, NZ with Ticketmaster in 2024...because there's still no alternative.
I adore this man so much!
Mythili Hariharan how? you don't even know him lol
Stone and his ums and uhs. He's not great at interviews but I still love him
Stone is a deeply lovely, kind soul. I love him in interviews.
Still mystified Musician gave him a Yield-era cover piece.
@@Fakename70 why
I always knew stone got baked lol ❤
Uh um
Yield is my all time favorite album.
Same, it's such a gem!
you have a great taste
God damn I'm as old now as he was then
Dark hair green eyes stubble
Bug AAS headquarters
❤️ Stone!
Yield is so overrated. It had the potential to be brilliant but fell a bit on it's ass. 6:00 he is hinting that the album could have been better.
Yield is a favorite for many. Myself included. Some of their best work. However, I completely understand why some other folks are turned off by the album.
I think artists always think their work could be better. Otherwise why would they keep making more art?
i feel like stone gossard adjusted from guitar rat to royalty the best (and fastest) out of all of them
