You absolutely can critique a show from a YouTube video. You CAN hear songs sung poorly, witness missed cues, hear wrong notes or gage stagnant set lists. To say otherwise is ignorant. On the flip side,someone watching Jon shout a vocal rather than sing it SHOULD factor in the live experience, were it definitely is, at times, less obvious or such an issue.
I'll critique anything I feel is shit, but I won't say the live experience WAS shit as I wasn't there.
People on here saying you've no valid opinion unless you were there need to take off the blinkers and ask themselves have they never watched a live performance on YouTube or TV (BJ or any artist) and thought, "Christ that sounds BAD" - I'd be amazed if you haven't. What's the difference?
This is a message board. We all (hopefully) are still fans. If you only want the positive opinions, try Backstage.

Incredibly well said.
The "you can't criticise unless you're there" argument never have and will never make any sense. Bands that are good sound good on Youtube, end of story.
It's fine if one finds the current performances satisfactory. It's fine if one doesn't. Problems arise when one attitude interferes with another with "trols" and "jerks" getting tossed around.
