Correct me if im wrong but im yet to see people who have been to the show - who are not on here - saying his voice was bad.
You know the songs so well you start singing them in your head and arent listening for JBJs faults.
Casuals and people who have never been before have nothing to compare it too so they wont know the difference.
But its clear that the reason theres only a few dates plus none in Europe and worldwide yet is cos JBJ is seeing how he holds up.
I think in a recent Q&A he said theres no europe and uk until 2018. Maybe he wants to give his voice a 6 month break.
The tour at the moment ends in April before one show in August and after that nothing at the moment is booked in for after.

Agreed. For me, at the Nashville show, the only song I could actually hear a struggle on was HAND and a bit of Prayer but I don't go to the show honing in on ONLY Jon's vocals. I'm watching/listening to the entire band and watching the production as well. If Jon was up there singing acappella with a quiet audience yes everyone would notice but that's not what is going on. As you said, people are singing themselves and badly lol! Plus, I'm not going to nail Jon to a cross over and over again on his vocal struggles. Believe me, he's listening back to the performances and he's harder on himself then anyone here can or will be. If he was mailing in performances (as I've seen him do occasionally in my 30+ years of seeing this band live) then I'd be a lot more critical. But, he and the band are giving their all. That's all I want for the dollars I pay for a ticket.
