Also, he's avoiding playing songs that demand more vocally, like I'll be there for You and Bed of Roses. When he tried Always, he failed. And considering that the majority of the people who write those reviews don't have a clue about music or the band itself, it's no surprise that they have been good.
My point is that Jon sounds so bad nowadays that I don't see how can someone go to a BJ concert and say: Wow, he's a great singer. As I said before, I've been to shows in which his voice was bad and not only myself but a lot of other members here noticed it.
Regarding the attendence ... even in 2010/2011 the vast majority of concerts in Europe were far from sold out. In 2013 he played for half-empty stadiums on more than a few ocasions. With very few exceptions, you can buy a ticket at the day of the show for this tour. They still have a good market in the US, but even there the attendence is beginning to decline.
