Jon's voice was very very very good during the lost higway tour. I saw 3 shows in europe and his singing quality is what amazed me the most. I am really glad with this.
I think jon knew for himself that, having the capacity, he had to train and maintain his voice. Very good vocal coaching, good sleep & food and no cigarettes are probably the best explaination.

It's true that between 2000 and 2006 it was far less. That was a bit disappointing because, it's really painful when you have to bring alternative versions of your own hits such as always, i'll be there for you when it's not because of wanting to bring them different, but because it's the only way you can bring them.

I guess jon felt that he was a bit cheating on himself and the fans and in 2008 he was back on top. I think at age 47 you still have all posibilities to work on your voice. If he can't hit the high notes of LOAP when he's over 63 or something, then i'll forgive them

I hope Jon feels how much every fan appreciate the fact he really worked on his voice to get his vocal chords back in shape and he can really feel proud about it.


Now just a little note on the side: I've been to U2 shows were Bono's voice wasn't any better than Jon's voice during the bounce or hand tour. But on their DVD's it's always super. Probably they do a lot of mixing and editing when they record.

I cant' wait for the MSG dvd. It's taking tooooo long to release this
