Philadelphia show will not be released

Why is that?

I guess for the same reason why there aren't any screens included in the stage design, why there hasn't been a single live video on the band's YT channel and why there hasn't been any live webcast so far.
Jon's struggles are probably too obvious when watching it through Pro Shot cameras. All the magic that makes him sound ok-ish when you're there in person would be gone then.

I thought he was slowly getting better

Slowly... I don't think he's there yet.

According to the person I spoke to in charge of these shows, San Jose had so many recording issues that they could not fix. This happens all the time with moving productions. You just never hear about it because there's never a reason to pay attention to it, unless they have something going on like releasing shows.

Idk but i was thinking if he is improving slowly maybe he might be able to sing...lets say only lonely or stg like that. I mean he was able to sing that in2010 and his voice was shot before that too but he improved.

That's what I was thinking. It was a great show!

I think there is zero chance of a DVD release of the current tour. Even though Jon seems to be getting more comfortable on stage as the tour ends, his voice is still in pretty bad shape. He's stil struggling to sing any high notes, and he's still sounding thin and flat on every demading song. A DVD with proshot material would kill any credibility he has left.

I'm happy that he seems to be putting more energy into the shows though.

Talking to Seb - He reckons why Philadelphia both sounded great and is unavailable to record is because Jon lip synced too much of the show and there was parts of the show that couldn't be translated in a 'live' way onto the recording.

Seems very unlikely. Why is he lipsyncing heaps on this show and not others? How come nobody noticed? Remember he jumped into the pit and got right up to the fans – there is a 0% chance he lip synced then. Surely we would be able to tell from the videos on youtube. After all, he never manages to perfectly lip sync that one line from Prayer, so there's no way he'd be able to flawlessly do it an entire show.
