After listening to YouTubes of those few concerts this year I would say if people are still paying money it must still be about Jon's looks! At 60 he still looks much better than he sounds.
There's a many different factors in play here. People know and love the hits but the percentage of people going who even know they're still making albums or youtubing how they sound live now is probably shockingly low. 2017 wasn't good or great but passable and plunking down $100+ every two or three years to see a band from your youth, grabbing dinner and drinks with some friends you always go to shows with, THAT's the majority of the audience.

It's very important to remember 3/4 of the stuff we complain about wouldn't even register to most people. Granted there are absolutely people there for Jon's looks, It feels like it doesn't seem to be the majority anymore. Which is wild.
