I'm somewhere in the middle... yeah, it sucks Jon doesn't sound or write music the way he did until 1996 but that ship has sunk a long time ago for me... Now it's about finding moments of enjoyment... a song here and there or a decent vocal here and there... I'm digging some of the tracks from the past two albums and I think Jon nailed some of the new tracks live...

I don't dwell that Jon doesn't sing Bad Name right became imo, it hasn't sounded good for the past 20 years...

That's where I am currently with this band...

His voice isn't the only issue though. He used to be a great showman too. Now he stands at the mic stand and moves his arms around every so often. He's completely changed overall.

Comparing the Jon of 95 and the 2017 Jon is massively unfair but I don't think anyone is doing that. It's the fact he's declined so drastically since 2011 is what has most of us bewildered.

I get what you're saying though and hope you enjoy your show.
