My take away from viewing the video clip is that the youth had a profound belief that if they moved, God would move, and they were at just the right place to want God to move.
Looking over the statement, if he left out the words in bold, he would have gotten the same response from the audience. So, IMO, it was unnecessary, and like the magic hair, puts the focus on us and not on God. Everything else he said focused on God.
That is my opinion, and I stick by that. However, when our youth came back, the focus was on noise. It is problematic to me, as you stated in another post:

And again, the reason for the example was to make it easier for them to understand or relate to. When I teach my daughter about what happened in the Bible, I often use examples to reinforce what the Bible says. I'm not sensationalizing it. I'm bringing it to a point where she can understand and relate. Stoneking was doing just that. You don't like it, that's fine. I liked his example. God moved, that's all that matters.

That's not transversing between two opinions. Like Ferd said, if the whole of the conference was about shouting, I wouldn't agree with it. My approval of Stoneking's 5 minutes on the shout doesn't contradict my belief that a person shouldn't focus SOLELY on the shout.
