I've always been A FAN of the Bridge 96 both shows - the rearranged corduroy and porch were my jam sophomore year in college. I listened to that boot on my walkman a gazillion times.

I don't think you used that word correctly.

yes but he is referring to specifically the acoustic show, not in general. I think, anyway.

Right, just his acoustic playing. I think Stone is a great electric player. And I hardly find his (or anyone else in the band's) acoustic playing offensive, just not where their ultimate strength lies.

I always thought large parts of Mike's solos from the MTV unplugged gig to be pretty good acoustic translations…?

yes, anything Mike McCready touched before 1996 was hot fire
