That Sat, Night performance is probably the best I've seen so far from this tour, but there are still moments that make me cringe. It's not even the fact of not hitting the notes, it's more that his whole style of singing has completely changed. His phrasing is completely different and obviously there are still notes he's not even attempting. The way he sings some parts, reminds me of the way that he sings the acoustic version, just with the band instead. If anyone is thinking that this is a "hot" performance vocally, then the standards of expectation have severely dropped. It's no more than a decent performance...but that's the best we can currently hope for...
