Where are our bloody Dry County and These Days vids for crying out loud?

You'd think with a 90% full stadium someone would film and put it on the tube...

The guy in front of me had obviously been dragged there by his wife - who spent all night taking selfies and updating her Facebook page. He couldn't have looked more bored if he tried.

I admit to dancing around, fist pumping, waving my hands, clapping and cheering and everything else. I had a beaut time. Within the first half of the show I was knackered and I had barely moved from my confined space between at least five people. My legs ached, my arms ached and my ribs hurt from singing along to every song. Others were dancing and clapping, but a lot of people were standing around looking like they'd rather be somewhere else.

Diamond Ring had a lot of people sitting in their seats. I admit I groaned inside a little when I heard the opening lines of this song, as its one of the songs I loathe, but I actually enjoyed hearing it performed live, and even sang along a little.
Wanted is another song I detest, but I love hearing it live.

The people behind me sat in their seats during the slower songs (DR, MAK etc) and I remained standing, and I don't think they liked it. I was blocking their view of the big screens and prevented them from seeing JBJ, who they kept pointing at all night.

One woman behind me kept looking at me and whispering to her gal pal I don't know if she was talking about me, but from the way she looked at me, I gather she was. Don't ask me why. Perhaps she was pissed off that she didn't recognise half the songs.

My mate attended this concert too, she was in the Platinum section, and she says that a woman there was bitching because she couldn't see, and security actually moved her seat so she had a better view! The seats were tied together so I don't see how they could be moved, but apparently this woman was moved to a position where she could see, but others couldn't. I guess if you bitch enough you get what you want.

So yeah. If you are going to stand around and look bored, don't attend. If you are not going to have a good time, and cheer and clap and raise your hands when expected (such as during the song RYH) then don't bloody go. And if you are going to bitch and whine at other people (who have paid good money for their seat) who are standing up and clapping and having a ball, then stay home in future, because you must the most boring BJ fan in history.

How can you detest Wanted?!

Same here - no taper is gonna clap and ruin a recording. I do, however "air clap" so that it can't be heard because I really to like to clap for a favorite song. The venue is so noisy nobody knows that I am only faking it by air clapping.

This last show at Mohegan Sun that I went to - I had a guy in front of me, clearly dragged by his wife, who refused to stand up, clap, sing or participate in any way shape or form. We were on the floor close to the front and nobody sat down during the entire show so he saw NOTHING. He didn't even tap his toes to the music.

Thanks for posting. This was surprisingly solid and about what I'd expect from Jon nowadays and is on par with how he sounded for most of this tour.
I really don't know what's going on with him and his voice but please note those "Wo-Ohs" he does with the crowd during the outro and how smooth they sound, I really think a lot of his vocal issues are psychological where he's worried or scared about not "hitting" notes and as result he struggles, seems when he's not thinking about it too much it's easier for him.

That's why that and Dry County just can't ever be overplayed. Two of the best songs ever written.
