yeah i mean im a fan of the "classics" as much as everybody else is, and thats partly why i go to concerts and watch the old vids on youtube so i can get a feel for the old songs, even from there i can see the change in the band, part of me thinks jons vocals have alot to do with the type of music they make now, easier on the chords means they can be performed live alot, whereas if they produced a bed of roses style ballad, vocally jon wudnt do it justice live and therefore wouldnt be played
