Stone is an underrated guitarist. His rhythmic and melodic ideas are the heart of PJ.
Who cares
Fuck is this guy
How the hell is the guitarist for Pearl Jam freaking ‘underrated’?? I’m so sick of these ‘underrated’ comments that make no effing sense just looking for easy likes
@@BudFuddlacker Millennials who have never participated in the elevation of ANYTHING, and least of all BANDS. It's like they're blaming Gen X , etc, for not sustaining their platinum status forever. It's sickening to me, as well. #UnderratedObservers
@@andyturpen or millennials that didn’t do very well in school and/or have a tenuous grasp on the english language. pearl jam still sell out stadiums, played on the radio, and reach new young listeners every day. they are in no shape or form, “underrated”.
wow. watching 90's rockers sitting around sipping on cups of tea.
Probably coffee, unless Chad likes his tea with milk?
probably... more a figure of speech : ) you know, like those old pommy rockers who do same such as Ozzy, Jimmy Page.
wipout1 where are the pearl jams and chili peppers of the 2010's? Oh yeah There aren't any.
Christopher Brown
too true.
Since the Gen-X and 90's rock/alternate bands, not much groundbreaking talent has risen.
Christopher Brown Only time will tell. 20 years from now, we'll see and say how beautiful those years were and how lucky we were and how evething will suck.
Stone looks like that cool uncle that calls you “buddy” on christmas dinner
"buddyeah"
LOL!!
he doesnt look old enough to be my uncle
bevrosity Actually u can have an uncle younger than yourself
@@troutmask9111 obviously. he just doesnt look like an uncle to me lol
Red Hot Chili Peppers and Pearl Jam are among the best bands of their generation!
AGREED Sir!!!
I reckon they are survivors. People that work well together and stay together, its a beautiful thing, I thinik this video is so incredibly boring there is no way im going to get through another few minutes of this. I love both these guys and all artists and everyone in general but I guess im just really depressed right now. whooo :)
scottydmac
I don’t think Pearl Jam was ever into the hard stuff though. RHCP on the other hand ... definitely survivors.
@@domonicdecoco2410 They are both survivors of life
Domonic Decoco Mike McCready was definitely into the hard stuff.
I just watched two dads talk for an hour about really nothing. And I enjoyed every moment.
yep. it’s probably my rising age.
I do believe it’s easier to drop in on these two, than on my neighbors Barry & Craig, though. they’re cool AH, but they didn’t lay down ‘Blood Sugar Sex Magic’ or ‘Ten’
cheers
I really wish Chad still did these interviews. It doesn't get much better than hearing two legitimate rock stars shoot the shit, with no pressure.
Saw RHCP with Mother Love Bone in Portland in March of 89. These guys both played that show. Top 3 shows of my life.
WOW!!! Lucky You Sir!
Damn how i would have loved to have seen them
Oh wow! I bet that was an amazing show.
The lighting in this room, the swaying of the tree, coffee, conversations, legends… what a day!!!
6 years later this is still a great conservation. Timeless.
Stone is the grooviest of the grunge guitarists.
Except for Jerry
@@heyitsme6067 Jerry is a different breed. If you're into stuff like this video. Jerry has an hour long icons episode over on the Gibson channel. Loved seeing him talk for so long
Stone is one of the best when it comes to crafting riffs and songs
And tunings! The one he used on "Daughter" is quite unique.
@@mattgilbert7347 what open g? lol
Not on this new record
his solo album Bayleaf is a favorite of mine
@@christinesteffene2721 what I really want to know is. when he does live shows. does stone switch guitars through the set or is he just a super fast tuner. Or does he have an alternate way of playing all these songs in standard so he doesn't have to bother with the different tunings on stage?
Love hearing these guys talk about the early 90's music scene. 1988-94 was the last truly great era for rock. So many all-time great rock bands (Jane's Addiction, Red Hot Chili Peppers, Nirvana, Alice In Chains, Pearl Jam, Soundgarden, Smashing Pumpkins, Rage Against The Machine, Stone Temple Pilots...) and so many classic albums from that era. The (roughly) 1965-72 era is generally considered the best rock music ever created and I do love that era. But I'd put 1988-94 up against it any day. Every bit as great.
P.S. I wish Stone had been let loose more in PJ. In his prime, Stone was one of the best riff-writers in rock. Eventually, Eddie Vedder took that band's direction over and Stone's guitar lost prominence in that band.
Right on
Fishbone
Such warmth and humility and genuine respect between these two. It's just lovely.
Stone Gossard! If u ever read this, i love u man, this is the most ive ever heard u speak in my life. All other times i heard u was through ur guitar, whether mother love bone, or from u hitting the groove in brad/20th century etc... or u carrying so much melody in p.j. & temple of the dog, i have heard u speaking to me my whole life, just not in words until this. Chad Smith, u are my drum hero from mothers milk to present. Even though neither of u guys will want to or have time to read this, atleast i got to say it to yall somehow.
i just love stone's "YEAH" every 5 seconds lol
I didn't realize it until I read this comment and after reading it he said "Yeah" about 7 times
yeah yeah
Jesus, I didn't realize until I read your comment. Now that's all I hear. Yeah.
Yeah
I guess the ‘91 interview with Stone and a very high Vedder brought me here.
Deja Voodoo it seems stone use to have more of a voice back in those days. As the 90s passed it seems he got quiet.
Stone is intelligent and loving and unique. :)
He has such a beautiful eyes!!
Gotta love a humble rockstar too 😉
Stone wrote the most iconic 90's guitar riffs of all time!!!! He is such an underrated rhythm guitar player! He is a genius!!
Take it down a notch pal. Pearl Jam sucked.
I'm sorry for expressing my opinion I didn't know that was inappropriate or not allowed 🙄@@AntwhaleNearfar
@@christopherdougherty236 Well I’m here to help you upgrade your taste in music. Rhythm guitar? John McGeoch, Daniel Ash, Phelps “Catfish” Collins, Elliot Easton, Al McKay, Johnny Marr. You’re welcome.
Two of Jack Irons's exes.
Really ? Whatever happened to jack?
90sKidDCN he has a new band now, they opened for the Chili’s on their last tour!
@Mandy Cole why are you bringing this up? 30 years ago and the chili peppers have made amends for their mistakes. Anthony acknowledges that and yeah flea and Chad were inappropriate but so many other bands and much more toxic males have existed and haven’t grown up and matured as much as this guys. most of them are responsible and good fathers now and have grown as human beings... why bring this back up like so many people over stuff that has been cleared up
I remember Jack from back in the day, he was a sweetheart. Hope he is still playing.
That is one special hour of casual conversation. It sure is good to see two "superstars" so down to earth and enjoying life.
This is the kind of video I was looking for. Two rock idols that I grew up listening to just talking casually about the past. Doesn't feel forced and you could tell they are genuinely having fun reminiscing
Absolutely loooove these interviews. Chad & Stone are obviously friends its like I am eavesdropping in on two pals catching up. Chad is so charismatic....maybe even a wee bit of a gossipy dude ;p
kenya iilya love that Chatty thing about Chad,its a lovely conversation 💗💗
"We close the curtain...smoke a bunch of weed....and GO!!!" I LOVE IT!
Saw Pearl Jam open up for the Peppers in Dallas at the Bronco Bowl in 91, my Junior year in high school...went with my bandmates. Smashing Pumpkins also opened up. It was insanely energetic and remains a concert without equal in my experience. Front row center seats...much sweat was shared from the stage!
A legendary show in a legendary venue....I grew up down the street from the Bronco Bowl. Awesome show and awesome place to see it....later on I'd see Pearl Jam in Denton at the Super Pit. Fantastic!!!
Man! What a show you watched! SP, PJ and RHCP
December 29th 1991, we went to see the RHCP at a small club while at ASU. The first two bands blew our minds & the RHCP killed it! Pear Jam opened the show and Nirvana was next. Little did we know we were watching history unfold and how they would change the musical landscape.
I saw the same show in Salem, Oregon four days later on January 2nd. It was amazing.
Saw this tour in 91 at the MSU auditorium. Best night ever. No idea who Pearl Jam or Smashing Pumpkins were.
Rhcp, Nirvana, Pearl Jam....Dec 91 in San Diego. Energy doesn't describe the atmosphere of that show!
@@arsenalfan9892 that's a killer lineup!
Stone has kind eyes.
He’s Stone’d.
I had JUST watched an interview of Eddie and Stone from 1991 and they had just gotten done with that tour the day before. It's amazing to see 1991 Stone and then see 2014 Stone
Same!
Saw that tour at Northern Illinois University....all 3 bands absolutely crushed it!! Flea, Chad and Anthony were at the rec center shooting hoops earlier in the day so I got to meet them briefly. Pretty sure Jeff and Ed from PJ were there too but at that time no one had a clue who PJ were...in fact they didn't get a real warm reception. The crowd wanted to see the Pumpkins because they were hometown heroes and Gish was just out...and of course RHCP had just dropped BSSM...this was my 2nd Chili Peppers show and it was easily the best Ive seen them play. John was still happy to be playing with them so he was still just on fire. Easily one of my favorite concert experiences.
Stone's ten thousand ways to say yeah! OMG! I confess I can spend my day listening to him
yep
ya
yeah
is Stone gay??
yeah
Drinking a white claw just sittin' here listening, feels like I'm right there hangin out.
Listening to a lot of Stadium Arcadium and Yield lately, Charlie and All Those Yesterdays. You guys rock!
Yield is awesome
I can listen to music stories all day
Chad is highly likeable
Cause he's a Ron Burgundy..
Except that he’s like 70 years old and still wears his hat backwards
One of those rare breeds that do music and is an actor. He was great in step brothers !
Jeff Panetta It’s all about his receding hairline.
Brad Lanky what hairline? He’s been bald since the mid 90’s. Amazing Drummer.
Stone is so beautiful and awesome to see, very much comfortable with music and knowledge of, soooo love it!!!!
Interesting to see them talk about guys like Duff McKagan and Lemmy.
RHCP an PJ the greatest band of the all 28 years and counting. They are all authentic people.
😂🤣
This interview is soooo good. I got to jam with Chad a few times back in the late 80's as a bass player and as a guitar player. He actually played drums for a demo my band cut, I have the cassette. He was just a beast on the drums, but one of the nicest guys you're ever going to meat.
It doesn't get any better than this, Stone and Will Ferrell talking music.
Don't say that to Chad. He get's mad :)
I was in a crappy mood this morning, much better now. A lot of good stories.
Gossard is a living legend..
Last era of rock and músic!!
That was truly a special time in rock n roll. I was fortunate enough to see that tour in ‘91 with RHCP, PJ, and SP at the Rocky Point Palladium in MA, which was an amusement park during the day. I was so young that my parents dropped my best pal and I off at the show. It was epic to say the least, and was young enough to actually remember the show.
My parents were awesome enough to drop my friend and I off at the same venue the night after that to see The Pixies. Glad I didn’t know how massive all of those bands would become. I think... 🎶👍🔊🙂
Great interview…….these guys are part of the reason the nineties had the best era in music!
fantastic. i could listen all day. thanks for this.
Met both of them way back in the 90's. 3 words: way fucking awesome! Chad is a great drummer with lots of potential and Stone is a great guitarist with lots of gusto! Both amazing musicians! Part of my two favorite bands.. Pearl Jam and Red Hot Chili Peppers! I recently went to a RHCP signing in LA for their new book called Fandemonium! I can't believe Chad remembered me from that particular concert☺️ I love both of those bands and I always will!
That's awesome that Chad remembered you!
I drove you guys
Im sure he remembered you and you looked exactly the same after thirty years, and he wasnt just being nice.
Why does it make me so happy when 2 people I admire so much but never met are friends? It makes me feel that the world is right, somehow.
i'm just a casual PJ fan but huge rhcp. this was a fantastic interview. great job, guys.
thwipp89 Same 💗💗😁
Same
vice versa
Opposite
God im old, I remember hearing these guys for the first time!
Amazing.. loved this conversation... So much insight into the musical personalities of my youth and whom I still listen to even today...
love the respect for jane's they are top teir
amazing interview!! Such a huuuge fan of both of these guys!!
Fortunate enough to see all bands they are talking about. Memories!
Great video. Watched from start to finish. Love these guys and their bands.
I can't get enough of these lil' chats!
great!!! 2 of my favorite musicians!! :) We (I) want more!!!
great chat, these guys always inspire me... :)
God I love these guys. I'd love to be sitting there. I grew up defending my love for Chili Peppers back in 1985, 86. I was obsessed, and now my kids are obsessed. They're adults now spreading the Chili Peppers to all their friends. I have fliers for them playing nightclub gigs in Austin. So cool! I finally saw them in Dallas with my daughter and niece. We had a great time!
This is a good video.
Simply my two favorite bands!
great conversation,heavy hitters!
Thank you! This was great and real.
This is too cool :-)
Thanks for uploading...
this was great to watch!!!
Greatest tour ever! I was at the Houston, Tx show.
Thank you! I wish the new generation of musicians can be like them, but it's not likely.
I know this is a cliché thing to say, but I'm currently 23 and I've loved the Chili Peppers since I was about 9 and I discovered Pearl Jam and the whole Seattle Scene when I was about 13. Loved them ever since. I love the 90's music scene. Still some of my favorite music to this day.
Daniel Echávarri I'm 25 and I started listening to Nirvana, PJ and SoundGarden first. I'm going to Austin City limit this Oct to see PJ. So excited.
plenty of great musicians in this generation
+ZexL underthebodhitreeband.bandcamp.com/ share!! These guys are the shit, very classic grungy sound with hints of the Chili Peppers! Keep an eye out, they're comin up!
Cool! Love these guys, legends.
he really looks like a high school professor more than a rock star, but the coolest name in the bussiness keeps him afloat. Name like Stone definitely helps with being a rock star... and then, his middle name is Carpenter... BANG :)))
Hes such a cool dude. Fame never got to his head.
This is one awesome interview.
A great interview! Stone Goddard and Will Ferrel
Saw them both Saturday August 8th 1992 @ Great Woods Center for the Performing Arts in
Mansfield, MA. If you witnessed thus even you'd have to admit it was one of the most insane concerts ever witnessed. The fans tore down the 10ft high perimeter fencing after and before it rained down sod, yes literal grass/sod clumps for hours on end. It was the Boston Herald 8/10/92 in an article titled both "Rock fans rampage at Great Woods" and "Vandalism, fires erupt at Great Woods rock festival"
Stone's guitar style is the heart of mother love bone, temple of the dog and pearl jam.
This made me feel so good after the devastation of 5/17. Thank you. Been a tough week.
that was great, thanks loved it. good fun too.
that was a hour well spend while watching this
This makes me smile:)
2:05 - Saw it. State Theater. Kalamazoo Michigan. Thought I'd died and gone to heaven. I think that's the "climbing the light rigging" performance from Eddie Vedder that made the music video for Alive. Unless he did that for every show? Shortly after that concert, I saw Primus open for Fishbone. The State Theater was the best concert venue in Michigan after Joe Louis Arena. That was the "dream gig" for the local bands in K-Zoo. Mine only made it as far as Club Soda.
Oh man, I love those guys! Love this interview. These 2 bands are in my heart. I go to see them every time they come to Sao Paulo.
Renata RZ aww 💗
OH SHIIIT! Two of my favourite guys on the planet! Shred kingzzzz
Saw that Peppers, Pumpkins, Pearl Jam show in Chicago - non-stop energy all night. We were all exhausted at the end!
Kids today will never know what they missed. They don’t make them like these guys and their bands anymore.
I have always had a crush on stone.😍💛💜
Chad Smith is so humble about his ability
That environmental segment was unexpected and based, very cool
I love you guys😍
Yeah. This is gold. :)
More then rockers... They look like normal people and I love that..
These guys are both awesome, even though I'm not a huge RHCP fan. You can totally tell who partied harder over the years though Chad is only a few years older than Stone but man he looks rougher. What I would have given to have seen that Pumpkins/RHCP/Pearl Jam tour but I was just a kid then.
***** Don't shit yer pants, kid, but, if I recall, Nirvana was also part of that tour at one point.
Could be just me but I think Chad looks younger. He definitely partied harder though, Stone was never that guy lol.
scrotor189 stone looks younger in my opinion.
Miyala Peters is because of the hair
Wardo Melena not really. this was filmed a couple years back. in more recent videos, stone has his hair cut short. he doesn't look old like everyone's claiming him to.
wow amazing how you really can make good friends in music industry back then.
Great conversation between the guys who clearly have a great rapport. I just can’t help looking at Chad thinking at any moment he’s gonna yell, “Ma, the meatloaf!!!!”
Will Ferrel and Tony Hawk, together at last!
These two deserve all the good fortune bestowed upon them
Love these guys! Stone looks like a college professor and Chad looks like a retired MMA fighter!
i wish there were more musicians on podcasts
nice interview
Love this! They must be high... all of clues...
Chili peppers fan forever 💗💗💗
Cute when he talks about his daughter 10:18
My fav. Love you
Cool conversation
I just love the Chilli Peppers!!
Allee Weiland 😍💗💗💗
