Well, he already achieved this goal in Seoul in 2015

In seriousness, I was a bit underwhelmed by these comments. Based on posts during the show I expected he referred to his voice more directly.

But anyway, props to him for working hard and being able to make the most of it and give us perhaps one last great Jon Bon Jovi moment on stage.

Right before that, he said something like (paraphrasing): 3 years ago I didn't even know if I could sing anymore. And I worked my ass off to improve because I wanted to sing better for you.

Surely the goal should have been to still be able to sing it by the time the last night of the tour comes around.
Must be easier to sing it first night than last night....

Not if you consider him saying he didn't know if he could sing anymore period.

This! I remember that he said more about it than what that clip before Wanted shows.

He was so humble and grateful the entire night. He really has worked hard on his voice. Have some positivity folks.

Yeah, I can kind of understand he wants to forget the past years, but imo it always comes across a bit weird if he says things like "We haven't been touring for three years."

Anyways, let's see what surprises this evening's show will have ready for us

YouTube is not giving me much length wise on songs, but what little I have heard sounded good. I hope more gets posted.

I have in the past heard Jon in interviews saying things like when he is on stage his mind is somewhere else, but not for this concert. Maybe you have to feel something slipping away before you honestly can appreciate it?

I appreciate all the videos people post on YouTube. I really do. But people record Wanted and Prayer, and not Always? Clearly not catering to the crowd here.

The lack of videos that have been uploaded from this show on YouTube (considering the size of the crowd) is shocking. You'd think it's 2007 or something.

And I can't post here unless I do a quote?
I think those live streaming sites are fake. Very annoying anyway. I have tried to watch them when it says the time. It never works for me. Always asked to log in, which I'm not going to do. Sorry if this was already mentioned.
