Mike Stern is all over the place. I'm seeing him next week at Birdland in a quartet called "Four Generations of Miles". I know he was just touring on his own CD release too.
It was an awesome tour but they are done with that for now; Eric is on the road with Experience Hendrix and Mike is doing the 4 generations of Miles gig.
Stern has expressed massive respect for EJ as a player, but I'm wondering if Eric learned a lot on those gigs about expanding his vocabulary and his approach. He's talked a lot in the past about learning to play through the changes--Stern could certainly show him a thing or two. I'll bet the gigs were fabulous.
