Exactly. People have been talking about Jon's decline for decades (and rightfully so), but he was still very satisfying up until 2011. Bon Jovi songs are incredibly demanding vocally and this was evident whenever another male vocalist tried covering their songs or when Jon sang duet with someone else (I remember Old Time Rock & Roll with Kid Rock in O2 arena 2010) where you'd see that even middle-aged Jon, while nasal, still had very good range for a male vocalist. For example, that's some serious range!
What happened in over the course of 2013 is incomprehensible. Reason no. 314 why that tour should not have happened or should have been cancelled.
