Is this still the thread for discussion of the Nashville show?

To that end, Reba tweeted that she was there last night. Her view was lousy. Celebrity spotted! Everyone can start drinking early today by continuing to drink from last night. 😀

Can anyone make out the first and third audibles? The second and fourth look like Saturday Night and Always.

Read what I said again, luv.

Regardless, if it is a pulmonary condition, neither smoking nor misuse of his voice would necessarily have much to do with it.

I didn't say that smoking had little or nothing to do with damaging a voice. I said that if some other issue is the primary cause of his breathing issues, smoking may have little to do with that.

It's a given that, generally speaking, smoking is an unhealthy habit and can contribute to all sorts of problems. It's also true that everyone is probably healthier if they don't smoke than if they do. But smoking is not the only thing that factors in and in some cases it's not even the primary cause of breathing or vocal issues.

Otherwise, people who never smoked would never have such issues and that simply is not the case.

Nah, I know it's not the only and the most important factor but it does affect the voice badly and knowing that a lot of singing musicians smoke never ceases to surprise me.

And to go back to the topic: I wonder if/when BJ will play LWTG at last.

I think his voice problems stem from something else we don't know just yet.

Jon was a pretty heavy smoker. Not as heavy as Tico, but there are plenty of photos and videos of him smoking.

Just to name a couple... He smoked a few times throughout the WWWB doc. He was also smoking outside his trailer on the set of New Year's Eve. There's video of someone semi interviewing him.

Smoking definitely has an impact on one's voice. There may be something else going on there, but smoking for years did not help.

I will be surprised it does,TBH. If you've declared you're not living with the ghost, why would you sing the song every night and relive the feelings? Other than catharsis? Does he need that? We'll see.
