I agree that Jon is hitting all the notes, thatīs very good. But I must say that Iīm a little disappointed that he has to look at the lyrics several times.
And itīs not the first song this tour. Is it so ****ing hard for him to learn the lyrics before the show? You donīt see anyone else in the band look at a sheet of notes, do you?

That said, Iīm glad that the band plays so many different songs this tour. Even though I am seems, like you say, a little unrehearsed, Iīm sure it was a great and surprising experience for everyone at Giants.

Yeah but itīs bad anyway. A singer should never have to look at the lyrics during a show. Especially not when itīs his own songs!
However, that is just my opinion

For me thereīs no excuse that a singer has to look at the lyrics in front of 80 000 people. No matter how many years there have been since the last time.
Itīs for amateurs. Not super-pros like Bon Jovi.

I think it's a decent performance, but definitely too slow.
