Before most of you overreact, lets just note some facts...
- Almost every single act in the industry, programs 'something' during live shows... It's a sign of the times and the technology world we are in. I was talking to a guy who does the sound for SouthSide Johnny as well as many other acts and he said that everyone does this... Everyone!!!
- I could almost guarantee that Jon is not Lip Syncing the entire show. I have the soundboards and it's obvious that he's not... Something prompted this... TBH, I haven't watched any of the YouTube vids from Philly because I didn't want them to ruin my experience but after hearing this with the alternate version, this is new...
- The band do not need any fillers and I almost find it impossible for them to play most songs exactly the way they are on the album especially considering that most songs aren't played like the album versions..
- In my opinion, Jon is only using this overdub for THINFS and most likely Knockout. I think it just packs a bigger punch and they are the only songs that actually sound like the album versions...
I really just think he's using the track to fill out the vocals and not to lip sync his vocals... He is definitely singing up there... Although it looks ugly, it's really not that big a deal...
