Default Current state of Jon's voice (general question)
Heading to Dublin next week, do I expect a voice as good as June 2008, or much worse. He was great last time!

How good is Jon's voice in comparison to this time? I get the impression it is much worse. I would just like to be prepared.

Thank you to anyone who replies

I was in Paris last year and in Zagreb this year. And I think in Paris Jon´s voice was better. But if we´ll take comparsion between 2008 and 2011...I think his voice is very similar.

I haven't seen them live in 2011, but from YouTube videos I think that vocally he's in a similar state he was in 2008, but much worse than in 2010. I find Always a very good song to see where the shape of Jon's voice. You can compare Dublin 2008 to O2 in 2010 to Munich in 2011.

In Helsinki last Friday his voice was excellent, much better than in Munich certainly. I think he's warmed up by now, vocally.

Outside of the Orlando show where he was ill I heard he was in very good voice at the May shows I went to. From the you tube vids he seems to be singing quite well.

Excellent for his voice nowadays. Which is pretty poor. He can not hit most high notes, ie. In These Arms is a whole step lower and he still can't hit the notes. When it rains, his voice gets better, but it's still not very good.

Rumour has it that he suffer from hey fever in Munich. I believe it because I'm also allergic and I had some problems there as well. Such problems came when it gets hot after a rain - this exactly happened in Munich. In Scandinavia it was raining everywhere so the air could have been better for him. Just a theory!

I think his voice in Munich this year was quite similar to Munich 2008. It was definitely better in London last year.
