first i thought, jon realized the mistake and went to his mic but try to hum the song along as it should be ... they didn't even notice what was on the pa. they played the song correct. look how phil goes to the "this house was built on trust" bridge while you hear the part "no wrecking ball" or how the solo starts at at 3:50 while he's still doing chords. around 5:00 you can hear how the backing track stops and leaves us with the bands true sound.
the backing track went direct from the second chorus to the bridge without the "coming home" part. phil is more than able to play this solo live (and he does usually).
so, in defense of jon: i guess, he never planned to lip sync. they just played the wrong track since a backing track would never include phils solo.
