I think that Jon has his fingers in too many pies. He is spread way too thin, which tends to dilute everything. I think that all of them still put on a hell of a live show - but it's not with the same single minded focus that it used to be. "

I haven't forgotten your post in the least.
We both agree on the same point. In this thread I'm seeking to cite a perfect example of how Jon's MATURED voice should be delivering in contrast with what we've been getting. I'm going after a realistic example of what we should have versus wishful thinking that asks Jon to do what he physically cannot even if he did everything in his power to put his focus on his voice. I feel the Destination Anywhere tour is the perfect example of what sets the bar for Jon to reach to satisfy the fans. Not everyone will agree as there are people here who think his voice went south after New Jersey. My stand has always been his voice has been enjoyable all the way up to 1997.
