Yeah, but I don't think he was singing that at all. It seems like he was singing on his own and noticing what was played over the PA. The whole band was drowned out by it. Maybe it was an April fool's joke from the sound crew...
Then again, I don't think Jon finds it all that funny when he finds out about it.

Someone from dry county twitter account tweet Tony and ask him what went on

Talking of overacting

Very strange, I can't say if it was intended or not but I've checked and they did tune down the version that was played over the PA compared to the studio recording

If Jon inteded to mime all the way, he would be moving the lips near a microphone (like he does during the Prayer high note); whereas he's clearly moving away from the microphone during the chorus of This House.

Lastly, he would not be using studio versions. He would be using live recordings (again, like Prayer) to make it believable

It surely can't be a prank from the crew, it's not remotely funny. Well it is when you watch the video on a loop, but you get what I mean.

I'm certainly going to give them the benefit of the doubt. Like I said earlier, it makes little sense they would risk so much now, specially when there are so many new people on the stage who have probably never played/sung over a backing track or whatever.

Somebody alluded to the fact that there are no screens this time, but there are and they are showing Jon at all times, so no conspiracy here (I was half joking when I said that they are doing every trick in the book to hide Jon lip synching). Anybody with a good camera in the front row can get a high-res close up that would certainly showcase any tricks, so I don't buy that they are not filming the shows to minimize the chances of making a mistake, they can't control who records and how. I can buy that they can't bother/it's too much work dubbing an "improved" audio over the video when they know they are going to sell like 15 copies

Those acts are nowhere near the caliber of Bon Jovi.

Tim McGraw and Alan Jackson have been some of the biggest country music stars for a while (equivalent to Bon Jovi in rock)... how are they not the same caliber?

After watching that clip of This House, I'm just shocked. I guess they masked the backing track pretty well all of the other shows, but this one had some problems.

I will say, I like the sound of the studio version downtuned.

Glad someone finally posted a clip of it. Honestly, I knew what was going on as soon as it happened and it took the wind out of my sails for the rest of the show. It was as if I was watching the death of the band.

Dude. Stop going to shows there. The bitching makes you sound like a 5 year old complaining that his friend got a shinier toy than you.... for 6 years straight.

I'd like to disagree, but I can't. I keep thinking Jon is going to stand up and do right by the fans. Not happening. Nobody's fault but my own for going to that damn arena.

Did you notice it during any other song at the show? Of course not that obvious, but from that compilation clip I got the feeling that they had the original Roller Coaster playing in the background as well.
