I know, and my point is that I don't care how it sounds later live or in a year. The important thing is that in an album recording, it sounds correctly, because that will go down to posterity and will be immortalized. A live recording is a different thing, and you can live with the imperfection.

And Sammy's reaction is great and he says 'wow'. There are a couple of moments in LOAP where Jon sounds like himself. There's a bit from a proshot video where is beside the Goo Goo Dolls and he sounds great on a high part.

Maybe there's hope.

Yeah, I think in the same way. On top of that, it's also a product.

In my opinion, Jon sounds good during the Music cares Event in comparison to the videos, where the vocal decline makes it hard to listen to. Does that mean that he would be able to do a tour soon? I don't know, because it's too early to tell when he will be able to sound as good as he did before.

For the moment in my opinion the most important things are the new album, the Documentary and that new experience with maybe also a new boxset.

The tour can wait….

Personally, I also see a new album as a priority and as I loved most of the snippets on the Backstage with Bon Jovi site, I really hope that we get a box set as present for the 40th Anniversary of the Band.

Well I must say one thing. I think that all stuff, the rough mix, pre-production and alternative takes that we see in Backstage With Bon Jovi should have been obtained with JBJ experience.

I don't want a Box Set with these low sound quality things. This is fine to put online at a price for die hards fans.

But I hope that if there is a Box Set on the way, it will be configured like the one from 2004, polished songs, that most of them are unreleased and that they all have good sound quality.

I think if there is going to be a box set (I have my doubts) it won’t be until next year now as they won’t release it the same year as the new album. In that Pollstar interview I’m pretty sure the guy asking the questions also made mention of a possible show at Wembley next year as well so may be more of a goodbye tour rather than one to promote a new album?

I feel bad for the guy, but it’s not like he didn’t know what he was doing and what was coming. He abused his vocal chords for many years, started smoking … In 2013 it was clear the band wanted some more time off, but Jon had to keep the cash pouring in and embarked on a massive world tour …

And now that the thing has hit the fan, he comes out with a completely fabricated and scripted “interview” saying that he had surgery and if he can’t do it the proper way, he’s out. Well, he hasn’t been doing it the proper way for over 13 years now, and yet charged obscene amounts of money for people to see him singing like a strangled cat in heat. He milked every dime out of it, and once again seems to be doing the same.

So yes, I feel for him for losing his work tool, it must be tough. But let’s not pretend he didn’t know what was happening or about to happen and still milked the fans for every penny.

There are a couple of different ways to slice the "I feel sorry for Jon"

Do I feel sorry for a world-famous guy who is worth at least half a billion with a perfect family? Absolutely Not

But if I just focus on the musical standpoint, then yes. His voice went through 2 stages. Failure to hit notes 2017-2018 and then failure to sing 2020-2021.

Any artist who loses their craft before their time is sad. Blaming Jon for overturning is like blaming Tom Brady for playing too many football games. It's what they are born to do. The combination of Hard Work, Natural Talent, & Luck will bring 1% of the population to the top and when they lose that, I feel bad for them in that regard.

I feel very comfortable with Jon's performance of Who Says. Sure it wasn't perfect but it showed me that he's capable of doing some type of run. I think when Jon initially filmed "Thank You, Goodnight", he really thought this was the end and now I think he's surprised himself.
